What is a "letteral"? — Paul G 16:09, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)

 * Lojbanists' term for letter of the alphabet, or name of such. I defined letteral, and expanded the def in-page (definitions shouldn't include technical terms if they can help it).  —Muke Tever 19:17, 29 Jun 2004 (UTC)

RFV discussion: April–September 2022
Rfv-sense: to digest. This is apparently a clipping of a sense of which we lack. OED has only Middle English evidence for both terms, except for a single modern citation from 1540 at defy. This, that and the other (talk) 11:43, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

 * RFV-failed. There is such scant ME evidence in OED, and EDD has nothing under fay, fey, fie, fy. This has sat here for long enough. This, that and the other (talk) 11:15, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

Talk:ь

Since there are many Cyrillic alphabets, am I right in assuming this is the 29th letter of the current (post 1918) version of the Russian alphabet? — Hippietrail 05:40, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Use of ер малък in Bulgarian
I have never heard of ер малък being used to modify consonants in Bulgarian, and I do speak Bulgarian, albeit not as a native speaker. In Bulgarian, Ь is used exclusively in front of the letter О to create the jo (yo) sound. The Ь can also never be used at the start of a word; if it's necessary to create the jo sound at the start of a word, an И or Й will be used instead. I'll also note that this letter's usage is extremely rare--it is far and away the least-used letter in the Bulgarian language. Ahelps 06:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Ер малък softens Bulgarian consonants (makes them palatalized), but, as you point out, it is only used before the letter о. Thus the sound of л in льос is softened, and is not like the hard л of лост (/lʲɔs/ versus /lɔs/). —Stephen 07:15, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:經度

I need to know more about this traditional vs. simplified Japanese. I can't find "經度" in the usual Japanese online dictionaries, translators, etc. I can only find "経度". Where and by whom is a "traditional Japanese" from like this used? Is it in Japanese dictionaries? Just in character dictionaries? Would everybody understand it or just people who have studied classical texts or something like that?

Should this one be marked as obsolete or archaic or "old forms" or "old characters" or "traditional characters"?

I don't think we should use the terms "traditional" and "simplified" since they don't seem to have anything like the same currency as those terms do as far as Chinese goes. — Hippietrail 08:44, 30 Jun 2004 (UTC)

A-cai 01:03, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
 * The Japanese written language was simplified in 1947. The old form is called kyūjitai ("old character form"), and is identical to Traditional Chinese, the simplified forms are called shinjitai ("new character form").  Some of them are similar to Simplified Chinese, but many are not.  If you were to read a newspaper or book printed prior to 1947, it would be in kyūjitai.

Talk:once removed

There is no need for a hyphen in this adjective, for the following reasons.

Adjectives of the form adverb + adjective (eg, "slow-moving", "fully grown") need a hyphen only if the adverb is also an adjective that could be taken to apply to the following noun. Hence "a fully grown man" needs no hyphen (because "fully" is not an adjective, and so this can't be interpreted as "a man that is fully and grown") but "a slow-moving plot" does (because "slow" is a adjective that can also apply to "plot": "a slow moving plot" means "a plot that is slow and moving", which has a different meaning from "a plot that is slow-moving").

As "once" is an adverb and not an adjective; and also because "once removed" is only used after a noun, "once removed" needs no adjective.

That said, looking through the first few pages of results for a Google search on "once removed", I see 28 without a hyphen and 2 with. I propose therefore to move this page to "once removed" and have "once-removed" as the alternative form.

Translations
There needs to be a translations section. Obviously, the translation in some languages might be for the phrase "cousin once removed" rather than the phrase "once removed", though, but currently "cousin once removed" has no separate entry in Wiktionary...

translations
I suggest removing the translations section. There is no need of the section since it already exists in the dog page. —This unsigned comment was added by Dirk gently (talk • contribs) 2006-06-13 11:05:00.

Thanks. Connel did so. Rod (A. Smith) 00:22, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

gender?
The translation of "dog" links here and the word itself is masculine (with a separate feminine form listed). Why is it then translated as a word referring only to a female dog or bitch?

--Filip 16:42, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

 * Fixed. Only the feminine form has that meaning. —Stephen 09:47, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
