oughtn't

Verb

 * 1)   ought not (negative auxiliary ).

mustn't

Verb

 * 1) must not (negative auxiliary );
 * You mustn't blame yourself for this tragedy.
 * We must go, mustn't we?
 * 1) * 1906, Edith Nesbit, The Railway Children, Chapter 4: The engine-burglar,
 * "Now, listen," said Mother; "it's quite true that we're poor, but we have enough to live on. You mustn't go telling everyone about our affairs--it's not right. And you must never, never, never ask strangers to give you things. Now always remember that--won't you?"
 * 1) * 1989: Batman (movie)
 * Look, we mustn't mistake ourselves for regular people. We're artists.

Usage notes
Although must and need are synonyms, mustn’t and needn’t (including their uncontracted forms) are not, except when used interrogatively. “You mustn’t go” means you must stay, but “you needn’t go” means you do not have to go, with the implication that you still may if you wish.

needn't

Etymology
.

Verb

 * 1)  Need not.
 * 2) * 1926 July, D[avid] H[erbert Richards] Lawrence, “”, , New York, N.Y.:, 1639362 :
 * ‘Oh no,’ said the boy casually. ‘I won’t think much about them, mother. You needn’t worry. I wouldn’t worry, mother, if I were you.’ / ‘If you were me and I were you’, said his mother, ‘I wonder what we should do!’ / ‘But you know you needn’t worry, mother, don’t you?’ the boy repeated.
 * ‘Oh no,’ said the boy casually. ‘I won’t think much about them, mother. You needn’t worry. I wouldn’t worry, mother, if I were you.’ / ‘If you were me and I were you’, said his mother, ‘I wonder what we should do!’ / ‘But you know you needn’t worry, mother, don’t you?’ the boy repeated.

Usage notes

 * Needn’t is not synonymous with mustn’t, except in questions. “Needn’t you do it?” and “Mustn’t you do it?” both mean “Don’t you have to do it?”, but “You mustn’t do it.” means you must avoid doing it and “You needn’t do it.” means you do not have to do it but presumably still may, though it can imply that doing so is pointless.
 * The auxiliary need, like the auxiliary dare, can only be used intransitively. “I don’t need to have it.” can be swapped with “I needn’t have it.” but “I don’t need it.” cannot be swapped with “I needn’t it.”, since that would require taking a direct object, whereas “I need it not.” would work, though unidiomatic.

The "common meaning" field for this character has translations for the Japanese readings, ie not the common meanings. A common meaning is one that would more or less apply in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, regardless of reading.

In fact I'm pretty sure even the translations for the japanese readings are not for this character. "shite" does mean "do" but I've always seen it written in hiragana so I doubt it's actually for this character but I'm not expert enough. Hippietrail 04:43, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Well "Random page" has brought me here again. Is there a page where I can list damaged pages like this? Or maybe a category is better these days?

 * I think the only way to really fix this is by introducing a page template for these 字 that looks more like the other language words, especially as many of these 字 are words in their own right and deserve "proper" entries. (Information specific to the character and not the language can be put in its own section; I put an example up at User:Muke/字 — ignore the romanization table though)

 * Any case. The "common meaning" field isn't particularly broken: it gets its information from the same place as all the other 字 did, from the Unihan database (for this 字, the entry is at ).  The fact that the meaning of this character is only given in Japanese is probably related to the fact that this character is kokuji (only appearing in Japanese), but it doesn't explain the ugliness of the definition compared to other 字.

 * Any case, for other sources for the meaning of this word, I have found "し.める して to find a place to dwell; sum; measurement of paper; to do; adding up; bundle; 8.5 lb; (kokuji)", and  "An ancient form of the number five. 五" (apparently someone did confuse it with 〤, the aforementioned numeral).    —Muke Tever 04:27, 24 Jun 2004 (UTC)

hi! I would liek to put my 50 cents this character has explanation on Japanese wikipedia! 〆、乄（しめ）は文字のひとつであり、漢字（国字）である. 部首は丿部1画. 卍（まんじ）などとともに特殊な漢字とされる.

主な使用方法としては、手紙などを封書で相手方に送る際、しっかりと封書の口を「閉め」たことを強調する時など. また「締め」、「絞め」、「占め」の意味で使用されることがある. （例：締切→〆切、昆布締め→昆布〆め、羽交い絞め→羽交い〆） it is used in letter as a symbol of closing !

How is a Japanese character able to make its way into a system of Chinese radicals? 14:54, 26 March 2016 (UTC)
 * This is a kanji, so Unicode needs to put it under a radical. By the way, for small things like this, you can go to the Tea Room. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 02:04, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Grammatical terminology
I've replaced "possessive adjective" with "possessive determiner" in line with current descriptions of English grammar. A determiner is a category to which "the" and "a" also belong and "their" can take their place whereas it cannot take the place of true adjectives such as "red" in phrases like "the red car" and cannot be made into comparative and superlative forms. Another old way of categorizing these words was as "possessive pronoun" but this term is now reserved for words which directly stand in for a noun such as "theirs" whereas "their" qualifies or, more specifically, determines a noun. Hippietrail 05:56, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * I've changed it to pronoun. Even though I'm all in favour of determiners, traditional grammar is correct in identifying these as pronouns.--BrettR 01:03, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Spanish
My Spanish is not perfect but I'm pretty sure "suyo" and "suya" translate "theirs" and not "their" and that the only translations for "their" are "su" and "sus" (for the plural). Hippietrail 05:56, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

True; added "sus" here and moved "suy[oa]s?" to theirs. Eric, 6 April 2005

Removed notes
I have removed the following two notes from the translation table. Whoever is interested may still move them to the respective articles. --Daniel Polansky 11:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Note: In standard Finnish, both the possessive suffix and the genitive of the personal pronoun are compulsory. In colloquial Finnish, usually only heidän (or its colloquial or dialectal variants, e.g. heiän) is used.

 * (if owners are animals or inanimate things) niiden (genitive of ne) (no possessive suffix appended to the main word if the thing that is in English "their ..." is the subject of the clause)

Gender-neutral alternative to his/her
Is it appropriate to document its usage as a Gender-neutral alternative to 'his'? example
 * Same question here. As a non-native speaker I always thought it could only be used as a possessive plural form. As it is also used in MediaWiki now, I would love to know the TruthTM about it. Siebrand 08:11, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
 * They/their is certainly used in English. I have no idea if it is considered "correct," although I suppose that would depend on whom you ask.  It is fairly widespread, in any case.  -Atelaes λάλει ἐμοί 08:29, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

What's the difference between an elk, a moose, and a wapiti? There's some information on this page: http://www.desertusa.com/mag00/may/papr/elk.html which might help improve these entries. Hippietrail 06:11, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Whoa! This is is trickier than I thought. Heres another helpful link: http://forum.leo.org/archiv/2002_06/04/20020604192617l_en.html

This brings up the point which I've been thinking about for a couple of weeks that for animals and plants (etc) we should have an entry for the taxonomy, which is far less ambiguous than the names in any normal language. I also hate how many animal entries have the taxonomy as the "latin" translation. The latin translation field should be reserved for words actually used in classical or vulgar latin or even words recently invented by the Vatican - but not for taxonomical classications! Hippietrail 06:21, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

"Elk are ..."

RFV discussion: August–October 2019
Sense 1 is currently: "(originally) Any large species of deer such as red deer, moose or wapiti." I can't find sources to suggest this is true. OED, Lexico and the other Wiktionary articles for words related to elk do not support this. It's also not mentioned in the Wikipedia article. The original use for elk seems to be the current European use of the term, referring to what North Americans call a moose. Mclay1 (talk) 03:44, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Since this requires verification of usage, it really belongs here (I know you were told rfd, but that was an error).
 * I also have my doubts about whether the second definition is distinct from the third, and whether the accompanying usage note means anything, but first things first. Chuck Entz (talk) 04:08, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I am very reluctant to rely much on the WP article or Wiktionary articles which don't even give a nod to what Mammals of the World calls . If the taxonomy is a bit controversial, then we really need to work hard on the vernacular names and not necessarily lean on the taxonomic names for our definitions. DCDuring (talk) 04:56, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I don't really feel qualified to make sense of this, but Tule Elk and Elk and Elk Hunting provide some breakdowns of Elk species that don't seem to correspond that well with our definitions. Kiwima (talk) 05:48, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

jaw

Etymology 1
From, seemingly borrowed from , itself from.

The OED argues that, since Chaucer rhymed with, the tonic vowel was not /uː/ and so  does not correspond to the French word. (On the other hand, it raises no such objection against the derivation of from Old French, from .) It is not clear that Middle English ever borrowed an Old French word in which /ɔw/ had already turned to /u/. If the normal modern English outcome is taken to be the /əʊ/ of, , , , and (implying a Middle English /ɔw/), then the /ɔː/ of  and  (implying a Middle English /aw/) may be explained as the result of either borrowing from Middle English dialects that merged /ɔw/ into /aw/ or blending with semantically adjacent words like  and.

The OED, with reluctance, offers the theory that the original Middle English form could have been an unattested, from an also-unattested Old English (from ). /t͡ʃ-/ > /d͡ʒ-/ is not unheard-of; cf. ,, , , and. The OED also note that a variant is in fact documented in English, but only from 1530 onward, some 150 years after the j- forms.

Talk:me

Translations
I suggest treating the translations of "me" as I have done here for French and Italian where there are multiple senses and grammatical nuances. -- Paul G 13:25, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Possessive determiner
This usage is not restricted to Geordie, and is already listed as sense 7 of the personal pronoun section. --Ptcamn 05:42, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Missed that one! No worries, cheers.--Williamsayers79 09:44, 15 September 2006 (UTC)

Shouldn't this be under a new section of possessive pronoun (working different in a sentence than a pronoun)? 92.20.198.45 19:17, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

МНЕ
Russian for me is mne, why should it be checked? not in all cases it's mne though. Mallerd 18:51, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

8
Does the eighth English definition belong? It's grammatically incorrect.
 * Yes - we record actual usage, not what is "correct". SemperBlotto 21:33, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Usage note requires clarification, citations &/or more examples
...However, “accusative” pronouns are widely used as the subject of verbs in colloquial speech if they are accompanied by and: Me and her are friends.

The note should really substantiate its claim that " “accusative” pronouns are widely used as the subject of verbs in colloquial speech if they are accompanied by and" with external citations using accusative pronouns other than the one in question. (Also, why the quote marks around accusative?)

Also, regarding the Usage note's last item: Using as the lone subject (without ) of a verb is a feature of various types of pidgin English

This needs examples of the usage that the writer is trying to describe. "Me want"? "Me like"? And if so, it may also be worth mentioning that this type of construction is also typical in the speech of infant English-learners. Also, are we suggesting that "me and her likee" is correct? This really needs to be clarified.

--TyrS 04:00, 25 March 2010 (UTC)

Albanian Infinitive
The word "me" (IPA /mε/) is used in Northern Albanian before a participle to make an infinitive, much like the English word "to". e.g. me kênë = to be, me shkue = to go etc. Shouldn't this definition be included here?

“ me”
Informally, something like “chip me” means “give me a chip.” See Urban Dictionary’s [https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Chip%20Me! “Chip Me!”]. (Just be cautious scrolling down, because… it’s Urban Dictionary.) There are several more examples as well, including different items, although it’s usually food.

How would I note this? It’s not a noun, verb, or adjective. It doesn’t work without the object. There are pages like bite someone’s head off that don’t specify an object, but that’s actually a full phrase rather than a simple word. Gabldotink (talk) 04:38, 20 October 2023 (UTC)

EN: one-word response to question, "Me!"
Which part of speech and sense covers the following?
 * Manager: Who would like to volunteer to run the workshop?
 * Employee: Me!  I'll do it.

I can't reconcile it to the existing pronoun senses. (I may be missing something.) It seems special because the answer to the question seems like it should be a grammatical subject (not object). However, this doesn't fit as merely nonstandard/colloquial/sometimes-proscribed usage of me where more formally I would be used, because in reality practically nobody would respond, *"I!  I'll do it." — or, even less likely, just, "I!". (I am not including instances of hesitation, as in "I... um, I can ..., I mean, I'll do it.")

If it's a noun, then something is missing at us to cover the analogous:
 * Scout leader: Who's going to go and fetch water from the creek?
 * Scout (standing with two friends): Us!  We'll do it.  Jimmy and Terry can each carry 15 L, and I'll carry 10 L.

Or can it just be an interjection?? —DIV (1.145.112.83 06:51, 19 April 2024 (UTC))

 * Just the normal pronoun. Pedantically perhaps one should answer "I!" and not "me!", but that distinction is largely lost in many English sentences. (The Phantom of the Opera may announce "it is I!" but even a grammar nerd Fox Mulder will probably pick up the phone and say "it's me".) Equinox ◑ 18:54, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Yes. Other pronouns do this too, don't they—isn't "Who did this?" "Him. He did it." the same thing? We should probably update Appendix:English grammar and use it more, for explaining all the things like this that people want explained somewhere, but which don't necessarily belong in individual entries. Like this, the -k- in to traffic → trafficked, the thing where people use 'wrong' verb forms (for any and all verbs) in certain dialects or other situations ("I hates the nasty eagle", "yesterday, he hate that, today he love it", "yesterday I go there" instead of "went"), etc... - -sche (discuss) 18:50, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Hmmm... the Phantom of the Opera may well declare, "It is I!", but I note that in that construction I follows is, in which position using I may well be uncommon (nowadays), although it's not considered 'bizarre'.  And it goes nicely in more extended (and flowery) declarations:  "It is I, the one whom you have pined over all those many nights!"
 * Yet it would seem more odd for even the Phantom of the Opera to respond to a query, "Who loves the music of the night?" flatly with, "I."  Nevertheless, inspired by this image, it seems slightly less odd (in my mind) if I extend the answer as in, "Who loves the music of the night?" — "I, the Phantom of the Opera."
 * Anyways, I don't have a problem with the answer to my question being, "Just the normal pronoun." The trouble was that it seemed to be excluded from all of the extant senses.  Fortunately Kwamikagami has cleaned the entry up and added a new sense which covers it.
 * @-sche: I'm not dogmatic that the one-word-response usage has to be covered/explained explicitly, but that is certainly a lot better than what we had before, where that usage was apparently excluded from every sense.
 * —DIV (1.145.112.83 11:46, 20 April 2024 (UTC))
 * I see a sense has been added specifically to cover this. That's reasonable, though we need such a sense at him, them etc too in that case. And I think, for clarity, it'd be helpful to group the object senses together and the subject senses together, rather than interleaving them (I had to look closely at the two "As the subject of a verb." senses to figure out what difference we were trying to convey). - -sche (discuss) 17:59, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Grouping them would make sense. I made a start, but a more rigorous separation would be good. Sorry, I didn't see this was an ongoing discussion, just noticed a sense was missing.
 * Pedantically, I suppose the isolated pronoun would be "me" or "I" depending on its implied role, but I wonder if that was ever actually part of English grammar. A lot of pedantic grammar seems to be, "Latin does X, so that must be correct."
 * I wonder how much the object forms taking over has to do with the historical influence French, where "je" and "me" are clitics and the only independent pronoun is "moi" -- e.g. "c'est moi".
 * We should probably add a note on hypercorrection for use with a conjunction. (BTW, I believe the same thing happens with "or" as with "and" -- who's going, him or me? It's like they're objects of the conjunction or something.) People who say "X and I", probably because they learned it in school or their parents did, generally do that even when it's a grammatical object, or an object of a preposition ("just between you and I"), so it's the distinction that has apparently been lost. kwami (talk) 19:37, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * With the set phrase "us and them", it's ambiguous between the form in isolation (no verb or preposition to govern case) and the conjunctive form, so I don't know if that would be a useful example. kwami (talk) 19:48, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Wow, that was a timely coincidence then!
 * Sorry, this may not be the main focus, but is "Who's going, him or me?" really hypercorrection? "Who's going, him or me?" seems to me like very common usage that might nonetheless be wrong to a grammar pedant, who may insist on "Who's going, he or I?" or (better?) "Who shall go, he or I?", because that's consistent with "He/I shall go."  I thought hypercorrection was application of a (possibly pedantic) rule of grammar outside of its proper scope.  Like if somebody wrongly thought that whom is somehow a more correct version of who, and thus asks *"Whom's going, him or me?"
 * —DIV (1.145.105.155 02:58, 23 April 2024 (UTC))
 * Sorry, for "or" I only meant that it triggers the objective case just as "and" does, so we shouldn't say this happens to pronouns joined by "and" (which is how one entry was worded) -- we should say it happens to pronouns joined by a conjunction. The stuff about hypercorrection should've been a separate paragraph.
 * You're right. The hypercorrection is when you say "me and you are going" (normal English) and are told you should say "you and I are going" (pedantic English) instead. But when you change that, you also change "he saw me and you" to hypercorrect *"he saw you and I" and "just between you and me" to *"just between you and I". The starred forms are incorrect according to the grammar books, but it's much more difficult to teach people the difference (which has been lost from modern English) than to get them to change "me and" to "and I" everywhere. kwami (talk) 03:10, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Usage notes
The preposition can replace any other preposition and remain grammatically correct, albeit more ambiguous. It is usually clear what meaning is intended based on context.

It is most useful for prepositional phrases not involving a literal physical connection, and instead, the correct preposition in the source language is mandated by convention only:

 * "He bets on the horses." (He doesn't place his money on the physical body of the horse.)
 * "I typed it on the computer." (It was actually typed using the computer.)
 * "She'll be here in a minute." (She'll be here within or after a minute.)

Without context, Donu ĝin je mi could mean any of the following:
 * Donu ĝin je [al] mi. — “Give it to me.”
 * Donu ĝin je [el] mi. — “Give it from me.”
 * Donu ĝin je [kun] mi. — “Give it with me.”

Without context, La kato saltis je la tablon could mean any of the following:
 * La kato saltis je [sur] la tablon. — “The cat jumped onto the table.”
 * La kato saltis je [malsuper] la tablon. — “The cat jumped under the table.”

Talk:chalk

"chalk up" and "chalk up to" are phrasal verbs and as such should be moved off onto their own pages with links here in the "related terms" section only please. Hippietrail 23:52, 13 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * Ok, will see about it (new here, was going by the Entry layout explained.)
 * What kinds of practice are there regarding pronunciations? (Are there any, or is it "where you can't open your mouth without making someone despise you?") /tSO:k/ doesn't appear to be General American at all (from here it sounds like a non-rhotic reading of "chork"). Muke Tever 02:29, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * No worries, I'm new here too but it newer entries are are doing one word or phrase per page and this seems to me to be the best. The pronunciation I put in matches both my own (Australian) accent but it's also the only one listed on dictionary.com which has a strong preference for American pronunciation. And you are right, in a non-rhotic accent the sound is 100% identical to "chork". GenAm merges a couple of phonemes which are seperate in RP and even even General Australian. For my IPA and SAMPA I use one common set of IPA used by many dictionaries published in the UK. Since all the dictionaries I can find which are published in the US do not use IPA, I've used the British scheme for those too. Hippietrail 06:33, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * Ah, I've heard horror stories about Australian vowels :) It'd probably be best for English words to list pronunciations separately, e.g. GenAm vs RP vs whatever AusE has.  ...which is what I'm going to do with the GenAm pronunciation here. Muke Tever 06:53, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * Generally you can make one IPA transcription which can be read as either RP or GenAm (plus others). For instance, I put an /r/ in parentheses if it's used only in rhotic accents. Also, this is the reason why I add "AHD" pronunciations for GenAm since American dictionaries use such schemes rather than IPA. Hippietrail 08:44, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

 * ...which is why I don't like the pronunciation keys in American dictionaries, and I'd really not like to see Wiktionary emulate that. (I found that IPA use in English dictionaries started in dictionaries aimed at ESL speakers, and didnt take root normally till relatively recently.) IPA's a standard, that's what it's for, while every dictionary has its own scheme, and I don't see the need to endorse AHD's.
 * While it's true that one pronunciation can suffice for standard dialects in some cases, in others it's manifestly untrue: GenAm doesnt have /ɒ/ at all; they merge /d/ and /t/ between vowels (so mottled and modeled are homophones, and water is actually /ˈwɑdɚ/, which is sometimes even [ˈwɑɾɚ]--OED recognizes this in its "American" pronunciations; AHD doesn't acknowledge it at all); non-rhotic dialects don't just drop /r/, they often replace it with /ː/; AusE, from what I hear, has odd diphthongs like /ɵʉ/ and length contrasts outside of the rhotic phenomenon ('gone' /gɒːn/ vs. 'tonne' /tɒn/, for one).

chalk
Rfd-redundant: " A white powdery substance used to prevent hands slipping from holds when climbing." AFAIK climbers use actual chalk when climbing, as do wrestlers use it when wrestling, gymnasts when performing. Isn't this really a way of using chalk rather than a definition for it? Mglovesfun (talk) 22:26, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

 * And players of snooker etc. use it on the cue. The question is whether climbers' chalk is actually chalk (in the mineral sense). I do not know. Equinox ◑ 22:28, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Seems to be magnesium carbonate not calcium carbonate [] Fugyoo 23:22, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

 * In snooker, it normally refers to the little cube of blue material, rather than the material itself. SemperBlotto 06:53, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Is that a separate sense, one that has a plural ("there are three chalks on the rack")? —msh210℠ (talk) 17:48, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
 * It's uncountable, but none of our definitions seems to cover it right now. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:55, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

It's a different sense. Note that, in French, it's called magnésie, not craie (= chalk). Lmaltier 16:02, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, different especially because it's not always the same material. Keep. DAVilla 06:20, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
