Talk:flag

Can we please get a better choice for the sample image of a flag? It would be better to remove the image, than to put a country or movement's flag there (since when is Wikimedia an advocate of Gay Pride?!) --Connel MacKenzie 22:25, 29 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I removed it and inserted the flag of Byzantium during the Palaiologos dynasty. Do you find it more appropriate? I also find the advocacy of peccatum contra naturam insolent in the Wikimedia realm. Bogorm 14:34, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, I thought the original image better illustrated what a flag is, since it shows the flag fluttering in the wind. I do not share the original objector's disapproval of the use of a gay pride flag -- it made for a very colorful image. (If we really don't want to show favoritism to any country or movement, the row of flags fluttering in front of the UN building might also be suitable).  -- WikiPedant 16:19, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

 * How about the flag of the Cretan Republic? It is the only historical flag which I found photographed and I like it. Bogorm 16:46, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, that looks good to me. More clearly a flag than the Byzantine e.g. -- WikiPedant 18:12, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Adjectival sense. rfv tag was added by User:Elkaar who forgot to add a section here. -- WikiPedant 19:54, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * delete Does not look like an adjective to me. The word "flag" only has this meaning (Of or pertaining to an admiral, commodore, or general officer) in combination with the word "officer", and we already have flag officer. Worse, it would be misleading, since there are flag captains as well. --Hekaheka 22:15, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
 * There's also flag rank, flag bridge, flag lieutenant, and flag plot at least, and googling those will yields sufficiently many citations. This is either an adjective or an attributive noun, but seems certainly to have the meaning specified ("of or pertaining to an admiral, commodore, or general officer"), or one like it. —  msh210  ℠  19:59, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I have a strong suspicion that one can be a flag officer and not be on a ship in the contemporary navy as well as in Gilbert and Sullivan's navy, so the nautical definition of flag may not cover all uses of this.
 * But I also don't see this as being an adjective, as it doesn't seem to be gradable or comparable and can't appear as a predicate, AFAICT.
 * I would think that an actual designated military position, like flag lieutenant, would have a rationale for inclusion parallel to the legal/regulatory one for ground beef. DCDuring TALK 20:32, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Re gradability et al., fine, but then we're missing the noun sense, and this should be moved. Re "actual designated military position": I don't know that flag lieutenant is the official title: AFAIK it's just a job description. I could well be wrong, but flag lieutenant makes it seem like I'm not. —  msh210  ℠  20:45, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * But the WP is for Aide-de-camp. One of the great things about working for the government is that your job description is almost always the subject of regulation (and therefore due process of law) and sometimes actual legislation. Ergo, . Also, I'm not sure that there is a good way to write the nautical definition of flag so that it would adequately enable one to infer that a flag lieutenant was a personal assistant to an admiral (or captain?). All words and all that. But if it can be done, the possibly obsolete UK regs defining the position of "Flag Lieutenant" might be a thin basis for a "legal idiom". So long as we can't be seen as giving privileged treatment to academic linguists over military officers, we should be OK. DCDuring TALK 21:11, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps there is a law defining flag lieutenant in some country, but I can't find it at, , or . —  msh210  ℠  22:35, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It appears to be at best dated as something official in the US (WWI). It appears as an appointment in the UK in the 19th century. We can leave it to a nautical antiquarian to enter and cite. About the other English-speaking navies, who knows? DCDuring TALK 23:59, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I agree. I'm going to delete it. 86.146.46.241 02:31, 2 June 2009 (UTC).

Hi,. IP editor made a good point. We should use a flag everyone can get behind. Why did you revert to the Cretan republic? I think the UN flag represents us all and is a good choice. -- Dentonius (my politics | talk) 07:47, 13 November 2020 (UTC)

None
I think your usage note is a little off...isn't none supposed to be conjucated with a plural in all other cases? E.g. None were qualified? Singular would only be Not one was qualified right? --Connel MacKenzie 00:01, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

P.S. I hadn't even noticed you are a newcomer, as your contributions are excellent. Thank you! --Connel MacKenzie 00:05, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I'm fairly sure it can be both . At any rate, it's certainly treated as a plural more often if not only because it tends to sounds more "natural".

 * Thanks. Colin 00:14, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * You're welcome. And thank you for the links.  But they seem to support what I was saying - it technically can be sigular, but in practice never is.  One style writer prescribed against the plural, then after being overwhelmed with protests retracted his prescription.  Anyhow, keep up the great contributions.

 * Oh, also, if you could dig up some citations for dookie it would give it a much better chance at survival.

 * Lastly, I must mention how neat it is to meet a Colin. The names Connel and Colin I believe both trace back to Conan, in the mighty warrior sense.  Either varient is rare, so um, hello!  --Connel MacKenzie 19:04, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Colin. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Colin~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:41, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi, welcome. I don't think we need pictures in a dictionary; try discussing it at the beer parlor. Thanks. 24 20:48, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * I apologise for jumping in here, but pictures are a well-established part of Wiktionary, and frankly, that's quite a good picture. Wiktionary is a project to combine all manner of lexical tomes, picture dictionary included, and wiki is not paper; we can afford to stick it in here. So long as that picture isn't copyrighted by someone else, I reckon it should stay. --Wytukaze 20:51, 30 May 2005 (UTC)

 * What's the harm in putting pictures in ? These are not new pictures I'm uploading.  They are already online in Wiktionary or WikiCommons, waiting to be used for free.  Practically no extra memory storage is needed to insert these pics.  There have been pictures inserted before in Wiktionary and other printed dictionaries, why not a few more ?

bow
The verb sense:- To become bent or curved. Isn't this Pronunciation 1 Etymology 1. The saved talk page also shows this. The shelf bent into an arched shape (like a bow). - Algrif 14:57, 9 January 2008 (UTC) Come to that, sense 3 could also be suspect for the same reson. - Algrif 15:03, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The shelf bowed under the weight of the books.

 * I completely agree, on both counts. DCDuring 15:27, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

 * This is news to me; I would always have pronounced and understood this as the shelf bowing, i.e. bending downward under strain. Of course it may be understood and pronounced in both ways.  But is bow(1) ever used as a verb having the meaning "bend upward or sideways into the shape of a bow"?  -- Visviva 00:23, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

What is the meaning of "bow" in this article:

 * For the Bond sequel, the question is how big it will bow
 * You know there has been a seismic shift in the global marketplace when a studio tentpole can ring up $200 million before its U.S. bow.
 * Initially, "Solace" was to bow Nov. 7 in the U.S. and Canada
 * But its early bow in China and other piracy-prone territories

Does it mean "debut"/"to debut"? 85.227.226.184 11:59, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Yes. -- Visviva 12:10, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

And oh, is it regional? I checked a few online dictionaries. None mention the bow equals debut translation. What's up with this? 85.227.226.184 16:30, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

 * You must not have looked very hard. Feel free to help. What is it that you doubt? DCDuring TALK 13:12, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

 * In fairness, this expression does seem to considerably antedate the motion picture industry. -- Visviva 14:10, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

 * I expect that the "semantic"-level etymology would not find this in attestable use until the twentieth century. The transitive use seems likely quite new (late 20th). I'd almost bet on its coinage in a Variety or Hollywood Reporter headline. The research is a bit tedious. DCDuring TALK 15:41, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

This sense (to première or début) is now listed under both etymology 1 and 2! Which is it? Neither makes sense to me and I've never heard them. I guess they're Americanisms. I'd assume they're perhaps references to actors bowing to the audience in thanks for their applause. In that case, it would be etymology (and very importantly, pronunciation) number 2.

chagrin

Alternative forms

 * (obsolete)

Etymology
From, from (compare 🇨🇬, , 🇨🇬), probably derived from , , of  origin. Likely an enlargement of, , from , from , related to 🇨🇬. The initial syllable is obscure. It may represent to express the idea of "lamenting or yowling like cats" (compare, ).

An alternative theory is that it came from a metaphorical use of 🇨🇬,, with the connection of roughness, though some dictionaries consider this to be a separate word derived from , from. The alteration of initial s to ch is likely due to influence from chagrin meaning "sorrow".

Noun

 * 1) Distress of mind caused by a failure of aims or plans, want of appreciation, mistakes etc; vexation or mortification.
