Talk:common noun

I've moved "proper noun" to "see also" because I'm not sure whether or not it can really be considered an antonym to "common noun". A proper noun denotes a thing that is one of a kind and is capitalised, while a common noun denotes a thing that is one of many things of that kind, and has a lower-case initial. This suggests that they are antonyms. However, if a noun isn't proper, it doesn't mean it is common, nor vice versa; this suggests that they aren't necessarily. Views? — Paul G 15:47, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Of course it does. Nouns which are not proper nouns are common nouns. In English, proper nouns are capitalized, not in all languages. Collective nouns, mass nouns, abstract nouns all involve different qualities than "properness". I don't even think the "one of a kind" part always holds. "Englishes" in the plural comes up in linguistics a lot and is still treated as a proper noun. I think "definiteness" is a better defining quality for proper nouns - they strongly resist being used with the definite article (in English).
 * Can you give me any examples of nouns which are both proper and common, or ones which are neither proper nor common. (And I don't mean in different senses).
 * Actually, I've been thinking a lot lately about how proper nouns work in other languages. — Hippietrail 16:40, 1 Jun 2004 (UTC)

RFV discussion
RfV for sense 2: "An uncapitalized noun." O RLY? — Raifʻhār Doremítzwr ~ (U · T · C) ~ 16:13, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Probably wrong according to grammar guides, but citable anyway. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:58, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm not so sure. People definitely seem to misuse to mean "capitalized noun", but looking through Google Books and Google Groups, I mostly only find correct uses of . I do see some claims that common nouns aren't capitalized, but I don't see much evidence of people actually using  to mean "uncapitalized noun". —Ruakh TALK 19:38, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Definition needs work even if it's okay, since such a "common noun" placed at the beginning of a sentence would be capitalised for another reason. Equinox ◑ 20:10, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Yes, I agree. Words like and  are ambiguous, in that they can refer either to tokens or to types. (I think I've got that terminology right.) For an example of their use in reference to tokens, consider a sentence like, "A single sentence can contain several nouns; this sentence, for example, contains five nouns"; here sentence and nouns each count as two nouns, because they appear twice. For an example of their use in reference to types, consider a sentence like, "I learned a new noun today: amelioration!"; here noun refers to the word  in vacuo, not to any specific occurrence of it. Our definition presumably means "a noun [type] that writers don't capitalize", but it risks being understood as "a noun [token] that its writer didn't capitalize". —Ruakh TALK 20:50, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

 * Classes and instances, in my world! Equinox ◑ 20:59, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

albino

Etymology
Borrowed from and.

 * is from, from
 * is diminutive of, from.

Adjective

 * 1) Congenitally lacking melanin pigmentation in the skin, eyes, and hair or feathers (or more rarely only in the eyes); born with albinism.

Usage notes

 * The term is considered offensive by some (when used as a term for human beings); "albinistic" is a possible alternative.
 * The term is not comparative: one either has albinism (a recessive genetic trait) or does not. While the effects of albinism may be more marked in some individuals, this does not make those individuals "more albino" than others. To the extent that it could be comparable, perhaps in metaphoric usage, the comparatives would be more/most/less/least albino (not *albinoer, *albinest, etc).

Talk:草

This character has a different stroke count depending on the language due to Han Unification — these articles should include such info. From the Wikipedia page:

 * For example, the traditional Chinese glyph for "grass" uses four strokes for the "grass" radical, whereas the simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean glyphs use three. But there is only one Unicode point for the grass character (草, U+8349) regardless of writing system.

— Hippietrail 03:11, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * The "stroke count" listed here appears to be historical, as neither form of the glyph actually has twelve strokes as listed here; there are nine in simplified and ten in traditional, which is how zhongwen.com and japanese.about.com  describe it.  Saying the character has 12 strokes, as this page and the Unihan index  do, is based on the full form of the radical, 艸, which has six strokes, not the composing form, which has three simplified and four traditional.
 * BTW, this means we need to severely overhaul Wiktionary:Chinese total strokes index, which is based on the Unicode values—several of these radicals, not just the "grass" one, have fewer strokes in composition, e.g. 犬 and 水. —Muke Tever 16:41, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

It seems like 草 can also be used as an interjection like to mean "lol" due to  resembling grass. The terms and  are derived from this. —suzukaze (t・c) 04:57, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

enzyme

Etymology
From, coined 1878 by the German physiologist from.

Noun

 * 1)   A biomolecule that catalyses a biological chemical reaction: either a globular protein with this function or an RNA molecule with this function.
 * 2)   The protein type specifically.

 * 1)  Leavened bread, as opposed to azyme.

Usage notes
Before 1980, protein enzymes were the only known type, so the word enzyme invariably meant that type. Since RNA catalysis was discovered, ribozymes are often viewed as a type of enzyme (in the newer and broader sense of the word), but even today, their name is often used coordinately with the stricter sense.

Talk:Kŭrdzhali

Does this town really have a standard English spelling with a non-standard English letter (ŭ) in it? — Hippietrail 09:47, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * The standard English transliteration of Bulgarian does use ŭ, so inasmuch as this is a transliteration of a Bulgarian word, ŭ is acceptable (older transliterations seem to have used a).  However there doesn't appear to be any basis for "Kh-", it should be Kŭrdzhali.    Wikipedia uses no breve: Kurdzhali_(region).
 * However the more common variants on the Web appear to be Kardjali and Kurdjali, with the latter having some prominent hits such as Weather Underground and Tourist association “Kurdjali”, but with Kardjali more common overall (12,500 Google hits); Kardjali is used on the Bulgarian Government's website. PCL Maps collection though has Bulgaria maps that generally use the ŭ, minus one with just u, and another that doesn't have Kŭrdzhali on it.  —Muke Tever 17:08, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Well if it's just a foreign word written in one transliteration, it doesn't really belong. We can add the English word and the word in other languages in their native scripts, but we don't add just any old transliterations we come across. A very few languages have very standardized transliterations much used by English speakers or speakers of latin-alphabet languages. Japanese Romaji and Chinese Pinyin being the obvious ones. Other languages have a miriad of non-standard systems (Arabic and Thai), or several competing systems which haven't fully caught on (Korean).
 * I think entering Pinyin and Romaji is wise - there are many many print dictionaries which do this. Other languages we should just stick with the "usual" English word (vague though that may be), and the native word in its native script(s).
 * — Hippietrail 03:52, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * This city and region do not seem to be popular enough to have a "usual" name, but it has been written about in English and I think we do have to catalogue that—and until something happens in Кърджали that brings it to the fore of English-speakers' consciousness and makes them (or the Кърджали government) settle on a standard form, it has to go somewhere, Note that the CIA maps  do use English forms, such as "Sofia" for София (Sofiya), the capital, so "Kŭrdzhali" is not a matter of straight transliteration, but informed romanizations.
 * I do think that (in absence of a standard form) other attested English forms of the word should be listed, especially ones used by major English-language sources about Bulgaria, but also Bulgarian-speakers in English contexts.  (Researching this I have also found variants with final -y instead of -i...)  Forms that get chosen as standard are occasionally weird (find rants about Cracow vs Kraków lying around, or "Corea") and in the absence of a standard, what should we use instead?   A prescriptive or descriptive form?  —Muke Tever 06:31, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Well sometimes description can get out of hand. Have a look at the spellings of Muamwar Gadhaffi sometime - we could probably do dozens of entries just on his name. But would that be sensible? — And that would only be the ones without diacritics! If we wanted to describe every way of writing it that we could find, we could probably give somebody a full time job!
 * Anyway, there are rare exceptions, but generally when a word is borrowed into English it doesn't keep any diacritics which may be used in transliterations/romanizations (informed or otherwise). English is very resistant to diacritics. (It isn't me - I love the curly little things - really)

 * Anyway, Sofia is the usual way to write it. I know that some ex-USSR countries are asking that certain English spellings of place names are changed - mostly to remove Russifications. Sofiya might be one of these new spellings. Belarus has done the same. I know Kiev has a new spelling now too.
 * If a word is being ranted about, that's probably good enough reason to describe it. I'd vote in favour of including Corea. I'd vote against including Koreja, Koreya, Korêya, Karėja, Korejă, Qurijai, Qūriyâ-yi, Korejai, Kôreyâ-yi, Kūriyā, Kōriyā-ye, Kore-ye, Koreyā, Koriyā, Kore'ā, Qōrē'a, Koréa, umm well maybe I've made my point...
 * I'm saying use the ones that are used in general English writing, don't use the ones that appear to be descriptions or the pronunciation or the native spelling, but are not used otherwise.
 * — Hippietrail 07:12, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * We don't have to make entries for all these... But if they are used, they should be listed as alternate spellings (and linked, so that if someone tries to look it up by a different name, they can get to it from "What links here"—btw, is there any way we can get that list included in the There is currently no text in this page message? That could be inordinately useful...)
 * Any case, while English may be resistant to diacritics in general, when it comes to place names it's different: if a word is spelled both with and without a diacritic, the sans-diacritic version may be more common (since people can't type many of them) but the plus-diacritic is felt as more correct (cf. Zürich, São Tomé and Príncipe, Côte d'Ivoire), and people look to dictionaries to tell them where the diacritics should stand... I expect that if Кърджали made it into the news tomorrow it would be Kurdzhali, mainly because the u-breve isn't in Latin-1, but in sources that have access to proper typography, it will be Kŭrdzhali.   (However there is at least one authority resource that lists "Kurdzhali": Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names.)  —Muke Tever 17:41, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Quite a big discussion, huh. There's been some regulation since the 1950s saying that the phonem Ъ should be transliterated as "ŭ". But I don't think that this makes sense cuz a typewriter doesn't have this character. In my book, the page should be moved to Kardzhali. The English letter "a" most closely resembles Bulgarian "ъ". But nobody will ever type Kŭrdzhali - or at least no Bulgarian. Some people write "y" at the end of such words, because they think that this will make English speakers to pronounced "Kurdzhali" as a long 'e'. I personally don't think that's correct - I mean, replacing "i" with "y" at the end of words. --Webkid 19:57, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)

 * Actually I think the standard spelling in English would be Kurdzhali, which actually reflects the pronunciation better—a may suggest a ъ-like sound in general (You're Bulgarian — we're talking schwa here, right?), but before r suggests a sound more like /ɑr/ (as in English "are").  [Note again that "Kurdzhali" is what Wikipedia uses.]
 * Looking at it now I expect that the common name "Kurdzhali" took hold in English (as an accentless rendering, over the 1:1 Romanization "Kŭrdžali", which can't drop its accents unambiguously) and that the breve, while not essential, belongs according to the diacritics-make-better-spelling "rule" I mentioned above. —Muke Tever 15:54, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Talk:unidentified flying object

I don't think UFO should be synonymous with Flying Saucer. The terms carry different implications. For example many people 'believe' in UFOs. That is, they believe that people sometimes see objects in the sky, that appear to be flying, which they are unable to identify. They don't necessarily also believe in 'flying saucers' since this term is usually used to imply a flying vessel guided by an intelligent pilot (or something similar), but not - for example - a misidentified balloon or unrecognised weather phenomena. Just a thought.

 * Almost all synonyms carry different implications. Big deal.
 * UFO specifically means unidentified yet people use it all the time for things that they do know the identify of.
 * Flying saucer means a saucer-shaped one yet people use it all the time to mean "UFO", or spaceship generally. Especially people who aren't interested in sci-fi.
 * How often do you hear people say "I don't believe in UFOs". Do you think they literally mean "I don't believe that ojbects fly in the sky which have not been identified"?
 * They're not always synonyms, and logically they wouldn't be, but people aren't logical and sometimes they are synonyms. Perhaps annoying but true nonetheless... — Hippietrail 10:59, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)
 * The definition meaning an alien spacecraft belongs at UFO, because it's a meaning of UFO that has diverged from the original meaning of the word, which was an acronym. Shoof 03:59, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

Talk:White Russian

I'm not sure the term "obsolete" is even the right one to qualify these definitions.

The country has changed it's English name which is fair enough, but when talking about the past, during the time of the USSR, or other times when the Russians were in control, the old terms are surely within their context and hence fine to use - right?

Or is this the difference between "obsolete" and "archaic"? Does the latter mean "nobody uses this anymore" as compared to the former which could mean "more up-to-date terms exist, but people still use this old one"? — Hippietrail 12:01, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * The difference is more like obsolete is a word people wouldn't readily know any more, like achatour, while archaic is a word people wouldn't readily use anymore, because it sounds old-fashioned, like thou or velocipede. "White Russian" is archaic, although perhaps a better term still would be deprecated.  —Muke Tever 17:31, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Perhaps a better phrase would be "not official". RSvK 16:21, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The entry talks about two groups of people in the political context. That is the Russians who took the side of the Tsar in the Russian Civil War and then another group of Russians who left the country after the Reds won. Are these really two different meanings of the expression "White Russian"? Also did a person have to fight or to emigrate to be a White Russian? Redddogg 16:15, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

 * Different but related meanings. There was a White Movement that included the White Army, made up of White soldiers, and White politicians and White supporters and sympathizers. It was like a political party, and you were a White if you fought in the White Army or if you were a White supporter/sympathizer. After the civil war, Whites who were without means tried to blend in and convert, while those with the means emigrated. After the White Movement was finished and the White Army gone, there were White emigrés. —Stephen 16:44, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It sounds like the expression "White Russian" embraces both groups. Should the meanings be combined then? Redddogg 04:46, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Etymology 1
From, from , from ; reinforced by 🇨🇬 and its source, 🇨🇬.

Usage notes
In Latin-derived words, English generally appends this suffix where Latin would do it—to the root of a perfect passive participle (i.e. past participle). For other words, English tends to use the suffix. Occasionally both are used ( vs. ).

Etymology 2
From.

 * , rather than from
 * , rather than from

Etymology
Modeled after -ar and -os.

Suffix

 * 1) Used to denote the future infinitive of a verb.

Etymology 1
From, from , for original , compound suffix from.

The ō from the nominative case was made common to all cases originally with non-ablauting o (the three exceptions were, and ). Afterwards nom.sg. -ōr > -or, by. Thus paradoxically, as in other r-stems, in the resulting paradigm the one form with a short stem vowel is the only form whose stem was etymologically long.

encyclopedic

Etymology
1824,.

Adjective

 * 1) Of or relating to the characteristics of an encyclopedia; concerning all subjects, having comprehensive information or knowledge.
 * 2)  Relating to or containing descriptive information rather than only linguistic or lexical information; about facts and concepts, and not only a word or term; including proper names, biographical and geographical information and illustrations.
 * 3) * 2001, Sidney I. Landau, Dictionaries: The Art and Craft of Lexicography, 2nd ed, Scribner:
 * [p 151] Although separate encyclopedic sections have nothing to do with the dictionary proper, there are no compelling logical reasons for condemning them.
 * [p 212] Terms derived from names fall into three categories. Some, like Chomskyan, refer to a person and the work done by that person, or to a place or a person from that place (Virginian, Londoner), and should be defined only in relation to the person or place. They are essentially encyclopedic entries and, if the dictionary contains an entry for the person or place in question, could well be run on without a separate definition.

Maybe I'm dense, but I don't get it--what's the difference between definition 1 and 2? RSvK 02:16, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * I agree. I do think there are probably two defs. One being an attendant at an educational institution and the other, one who learns by studying - as in "a student of life" etc. something like that... — Hippietrail 02:20, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * In other words, just a metaphorical use of the word. Thanks.  RSvK 05:01, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Hmm... the definition marked here as "metaphorical" is actually the literal sense, as student (Latin studens) is just the participle of the verb to study (studeo). student in the sense of "someone attending the school" is the metaphorical sense, applying even to people who maynt actually do any studying whatever, although "metaphorical" is probably too charged a word to describe this kind of trope.  —Muke Tever 05:19, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Looking at the translations of the meaning 1 and 2 into other languages I feel that most of them are based on misunderstanding of the definition with the meaning 3. For eksample in Swedish the meaning 1 should be rendered by the word "forskare", while meaning 2 should be rendered by "dyrkare"

Yod Dropping
Due to yod dropping in General American English, this word isn't actually pronounced [stjudɛnt] by most US speakers. It's generally [studɛnt].

Therefore, I'm adding another IPA option.

Antonyms
I wonder if English speakers consider "teacher" as antonym to "student". Varroa Mite (talk) 13:39, 19 November 2017 (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 Funvill. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Funvill~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 23:47, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
