news url
The news url doesn’t work for me on FF 3.0.4, openSUSE, with TB as my default news reader. It opens a new tab with a document which only contains some strange html. Must there be four slashes after news: ? H. (talk) 12:45, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * For me, news://news:119/gi3f02$loi$1@news.albasani.net works, but I am unsure whether that will work everywhere. It is because I can access a newsserver under news:119 with my connection.  I found no further information about this, does anybody have a good link? H. (talk) 12:59, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Not sure what news:119 is, but we link to news:message-ID, which is one of the two standard ways of linking to an nntp post, AFAIK. If your browser can't handle it, then I wish I could help, but I don't think there's anything wrong with the template.—msh210 ℠  23:43, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

 * That’s what I am asking: is there a standard? The current does not work for me on both a generic Windows XP and openSUSE Linux, with FF and TB as default browser and newsgroup client.  Or maybe TB just handles those links incorrectly? Yes: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327885 H. (talk) 18:29, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Talk:casa

I am not sure casino has something to see with casa...

Casino
According to the Spanish Academy, origin of "casino" is "hut", like "casa", so, both terms are related. See Diccionario de la Lengua Española and type "casino". - Renebeto.
 * "Ino" is the same diminutive as the "ito", so it means a little house in Italian.

Italian pronunciation
pronunciation in Rome (which is always standard) is /'kasa/, in Noerthern italy is /'kasa/ and is spreading due to widespread northern italian private broadcast "mediaset", a private TV holding owned by S. Berlusconi. But /'kasa/ pronunciation is still standard. I corrected in the Italian section
 * Since the audio file clearly has [ˈkaza], [ˈkasa] isn't the only pronunciation. We can list both. —Angr 20:12, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
 * See Tea room/2016/April for discussion. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 13:24, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Why it's not mentioned /θ/ for the "s", like on the French wiki page for "casa"? Is it wrong, or it is your page that doesn't have it?

Talk:trip

Etymology split
This entry would be better if it was split by etymology. --Gobbler 18:08, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes, the poker senses here and at probably come from "triple", and are unrelated to a trip or journey. Equinox ◑ 16:05, 2 November 2022 (UTC)

Pronunciation
, really? Where? For non IPA readers, these would roughly correspond to "tshrip" (that is, same as the usual pronunciation with an extra -sh- sound). Mglovesfun (talk) 14:19, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

 * The pronunciation is probably the standard pronunciation in most of America. Affrication of /t/ before /r/ is almost ubiquitous in American English. If you speak American English natively, you probably think you hear /tr/ even when you are actually hearing [tʃɹ], much as you hear [t] as /d/ at the beginning of words.150.135.210.71 16:55, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

 * I disagree., certainly; , never. (If it were , then that's how Americans would hear it!) —Ruakh TALK 19:33, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Etyl questions
The words linked in the etyl all seem to exist, just not in the languages indicated, which is a bit frustrating for those of us trying to ascertain the meaning of source words. Also, is the sense "to stumble" really from the same root verb as "to make a voyage"? If so, how did this divergence in meaning come about? -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 07:17, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Intense enjoyment of a condition
Hard to phrase it, but I think a trip (ego trip etc.) is more like a kick: it is the focus on something for a period, rather than the enjoyment of it. Equinox ◑ 13:19, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I think there are different aspects of this, but I am not sure. Perhaps "experience" instead of "enjoyment".
 * AHD has four senses:
 * A hallucinatory experience induced by a psychedelic drug: an acid trip.
 * An intense, stimulating, or exciting experience : a power trip.
 * A usually temporary but absorbing interest or preoccupation: He's on another health food trip.
 * A certain way of life or situation: "deny that his reclusiveness is some sort of deliberate star trip" (Patricia Bosworth).

detector
Hello, I think a meaning is missing ob this article. It is about the detectro. Some examples to illustrate Thanks in advance. Pamputt (talk) 07:31, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
 * All and any help here is appreciated. Have been out on this detector tripping numerous times.
 * It needs to be able to detect if the wire to a sensor has been cut, or a wire short-circuited, or the sensor has been tripped

 * We do have this already: "To activate or set in motion, as in the activation of a trap, explosive, or switch." But it's marked as transitive only. Your first example seems to be intransitive. Equinox ◑ 11:06, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I am not sure because I have already met this word with the opposite meaning: a detector is stopped because the intensity or the current is too high but I am not sure that it is exactly that. However, this is how I understood the previous examples ... Pamputt (talk) 15:56, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

"German: trippen"
What kind of "German" is this word supposed to be? Not modern-day German for sure. There is the word "trippeln", and there is the word Trippe, but I have no idea what "trippen" is supposed to be. The link leads to a Swedish word. --87.147.84.126 17:49, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

AAVE seems to have a definition reminiscent of 7 but distinctly not drug-related. —suzukaze (t・c) 09:39, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Do you always trip over *an object*?
Our definition says so, but Chambers 1908 just says "to stumble and fall". Can you just trip by misplacing your feet, rather than striking an object? Equinox ◑ 19:51, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

RFD discussion: October 2022
The second meaning of trip as a collective noun is redundant as it’s just a special case of the first sense we define (though this sense itself is slightly oddly worded) Overlordnat1 (talk) 00:06, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * : if you look at the edit history, the first sense is the one that was . It should be deleted, not the second one. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:01, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The pattern of the edit was to replace #X by #XY#X. One of the Xs is redundant, but which of the two is the original one? The user may have prepended #XY or have appended Y#X. In either case, the Y part does not belong in a definition, so we should undo the edit. --Lambiam 08:16, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I must admit to not checking the edit history before tagging but the reason I tagged the second sense was that the first sense mentioned wildfowl, so was more general. It’s definitely an improvement that the reference that appeared in the first sense is now in a reference section. Can this word refer to wildfowl generally, or is it just widgeons? Is the claim that the word is related to troop accurate? If it is it should appear in the etymology section in any case, rather than in the definition. --Overlordnat1 (talk) 12:09, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete, obviously. --Lambiam 08:17, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Comment. I’ve moved the reference to Chambers to a References section.

Speedy deleted - they were word-for-word identical, and there's no reason to delay because of an academic discussion about which clone was the original. It was also a potential copyvio as well. Theknightwho (talk) 06:44, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I hope you did not delete the wrong one, though. --Lambiam 11:30, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
 * That seems fair enough. I do still wonder whether we should mention trip as a related term or doublet to troop, and vice versa, somewhere in our entries for these words though. --Overlordnat1 (talk) 08:40, 20 October 2022 (UTC)

Meänkieli

Etymology
From the native term, from.

Proper noun

 * 1) A language spoken by some 40,000–70,000 people mainly in Northern Sweden. It is a variant of Finnish with a structure and grammar similar to Finnish, but the vocabulary considerably influenced by Swedish.

Usage notes

 * There seems to be no final agreement on what the language should be called in English: in addition to, the forms , , , , and are encountered.
 * The ISO 639-3 standard uses Tornedalen Finnish and Finnish, Tornedalen.
 * The speakers of Meänkieli themselves would not want to accept anything with Finnish or -finska in it, because they consider their language distinct from Finnish, even if the languages are largely mutually intelligible.
 * North Finnish is misleading, because it is also used to refer to all northern variants of Finnish as a group.
 * Tornedalen is not ideal either because it is the Swedish name for the river valley, and geographical names are not normally used directly as names of languages in English.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 15:01, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

Sextilian?
I have added an 1855 citation to sextilian. If you read WT:CFI and the introduction to WT:RFV (links given here and hereinabove), you will discover that due to the necessity of words being attested, the only way that sextilian will remain here much longer is if you provide two more citations, separated by at least a year (so anything from 1856 onward), from durably archived sources (Google Book Search is usually good for this purpose). I like sextilian, so it would be a shame to see it deleted for failing the verification process. † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 03:18, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the welcome and the contribution to the article. I have been registered for a couple of months, now. I am not sure why I am still being tagged as anonymous.

 * I am not sure sextilian can meet such a rigorous requirement for CFI. I am accustomed to using suffixes and prefixes as needed. While I recognize linguistic precedence in how they are used, it never occurred to me that I had to justify said use any more than I would a true compound word. Disregarding this quality seems to beg the question why they are even allowed to be included as separate entries in the first place.

 * On that rationale, sextilian seemed to be a fitting construct as an umbrella term for scale figures. While these component hobbies remained separate from each other, there was no need for such an umbrella term, therefore no historical attestation.

 * Factors like the blurring of gender roles, the general availability of multimedia equipment, and the ability of John Q. Citizen to distribute / publish original works via the internet made the combining of these hobbies almost inevitable. That makes this hobby an indirect result of modern technology, which frequently has created the need for protologisms. Maybe the establishing of new phenomena should be added to the CFI as a basis for a proposed word or, at least, to create a special class of protologism, [a protonym?]. Compound words and correct use of affixes would be the most compatible means for doing so. Joe Webster 10:51, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

 * “I am not sure why I am still being tagged as anonymous.” — You’re not. That was my mistake, for which I apologise. You are the first person whom I have welcomed. I accidentally used  ~  when I ought to have used  ~ . I have replaced the welcome message with latter, applicable, welcome message.

 * Whilst I agree with pretty much everything that you have written, I daresay that you will have a hard time convincing the “community” of any of it; Wiktionary is under the reign of descriptivism (some might say hyperdescriptivism) at præsent, and shows no sign of waning loyalties. You can, of course, try, by raising the issue in the Beer Parlour, but I must warn you that it’ll probably be a wasted effort.

 * As I see it, the only credible hope for prescription lies in the List of Protologisms. I may try convincing the community to take a more prescriptive stance with entries therein at some time in the future; however, considering how far out on the lunatic fringe many of them consider me to be, I doubt that I’ll get round to that for many months. † Raifʻhār Doremítzwr 15:01, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

protecting user pages
There isn't any way to protect user pages so only you can edit them. You can, of course, routinely revert anyone else's changes, and you can put a notice at the top of the page to that effect. If you have trouble with someone doing this, then we'll worry about it.

Do keep in mind that all pages belong to the community; there is no personal property; only a presumption that user sub-pages are that user's sandbox. Robert Ullmann 09:33, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for all your help with the inverse requests page :-) I've learned quite a few words thanks to your effort :-)  "alveolar tap" is now part of my everyday lexicon :-)  Keep up the good work!!

 * Huh????

French etymology
I don't understand that a 17th century borrowing from Low German would be "historically implausible". In 1672, France and a.o. Münster (a Low German state) supported a Low German insurrection during the "w:Rampjaar". In the end, it brought France gains in the Spanish Netherlands and no independence for Gelre, but Low German ships would have joined France by that time. --80.114.178.7 01:14, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

琵琶

Etymology
Borrowed from a language in the during the. Compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬.

Both characters were initially non-checked-tone characters. Reborrowed during the from a source that more closely resembles the modern Persian name of the instrument, both characters were read as if they have checked codas. The original non-checked readings were restored after the Ming Dynasty (bat carving head pipa). Compare the modern checked-tone dialectal readings of.

Much folk etymology exists surrounding the name origin. The dictionary  explains the name as, reflecting the plucking movements while playing the stringed instrument. 琵琶 is also cognate with—and possibly gave rise to the name of (due to the similarity in shape)—, which is also a non-native species.

Talk:Québécois

Added sources
Based definition on referenced  authoritative sources--Soulscanner 06:43, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
 * There are serious reasons to doubt that québécois has an ethnic meaning in French, despite what the Petit Robert says. It is contradicted by the Dictionnaire du français Plus which gives only a territorial meaning and writes:

 * "Mis à part quelques emplois sporadiques antérieurs, le gentilé Québécois au sens d'«habitants du Québec» ne s'implanta véritablement dans l'usage qu'à compter des années 1960; avant cette époque, les Québécois se désignaient eux-mêmes par le nom de Canadiens français, à valeur ethnologique plutôt que territoriale (v. Canadien). Ce phénomène s'explique pour une bonne part par l'émergence d'un fort sentiment d'identité par rapport aux autres habitants du Canada et par la montée du nationalisme. Cette situation a, par ailleurs, suscité diverses autres dénominations comme Boréalien, Franconien, Laurentien, fondées sur la notion d'un authentique et pur Québec renommé Boréalie, Franconie ou Laurentie. Ces dénominations n'ont guère dépassé le cercle restreint de quelques groupements nationalistes et ont connu un succès plutôt éphémère."(Emphasis mine.)

In the italicized part they are contrasting the ethnological Canadien français and the territorial Québécois. Here's a quote from Landmark essays on rhetorical criticism by Thomas W. Benson:
 * "French-Canadians in Quebec had to live the contradiction of not being exclusively subjects of the state they collectively controlled. "Québécois" resolves this difficulty at the discursive level, by identifying the populace with a territory and a francophone state, rather than with an ethnic group.

Both of these quotes emphasize the essential feature of the word Québécois - a non-ethnic, territorial one. Joeldl 12:38, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:accidently

 * From: WT:RFC

The page itself is fine (it is an obsolete spelling or misspelling of "accidentally") but, as it is obsolete and a misspelling, we should not be using it in definitions. A search on "accidently" shows that there are many pages that include it. These need to be changed to "accidentally" (except where the obsolete spelling or misspelling is what is required). — Paul G 09:05, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

 * A note to whoever takes this on - to find the pages affected, type "accidently" in the box in the left-hand margin and click "Search". Don't go to "accidently" and click "what links here", as there are no doubt many instances of the word that are not linked.  A search will find all of them. — Paul G 09:27, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I searched the way you described and all I get are instances of accident. Is my search box wrong or am I? Vildricianus 23:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

 * Hm, I see what you mean. Perhaps the software is being too clever.

 * The thing to do then is to go to "accidently" and click "what links here", and also to do a Google search for "accidently" in the en.wiktionary.org domain (via the "Advanced Search" link). This will probably give most of the pages that need to be updated. — Paul G 17:03, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Those so inclined to fix spelling errors might do well to work on User talk:Connel MacKenzie/typos as well. --Connel MacKenzie T C 01:09, 10 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I finally got around to refreshing the list, this last time around. --Connel MacKenzie 21:11, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * is this really a mispelling and not a variant? 76.26.189.65 11:24, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I've never heard it as a variant. What makes you ask this?    D b f  i  r  s   11:31, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
 * (later) Oh, I see why you ask. Lots of bloggers have accidently deleted their files.  I don't think I would rely on such people for accuracy of spelling, any more than I would for making backups.  The OED records accidently as obsolete, the last recorded use being in 1864, and, even then, it meant by chance, not the modern meaning of by accident.    D b f  i  r  s   11:53, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Neither a misspelling nor obsolete
By accident means by chance ... They are synonymous ... So it doesn't matter whether one thinks accidently means "by accident" or "by chance" ... from the Oxford Dict:

 * by accident unintentionally; by chance: she didn't get where is today by accident / nomadic hunters probably ended up on the new continent by accident

Thus accidently means by accident or by chance or unintentionally.

Maybe the OED needs to update its corpus since 1864 was not the last usage of it. I eathly found it in 1869 and many since then:  … but as he was preparing to give a deadly stroke, the point of the sword accidently struck her a violent blow, — Harper's Young People, November 4, 1879.

A look at Google's Ngram Viewer shows continuous use in both AmE and BrE.

The 1995 [http://books.google.com/books?id=2yJusP0vrdgC&pg=PA16&dq=accidently&hl=es-419&sa=X&ei=3AeaT4P7M8qFgwfykp2mDw&ved=0CEoQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=accidently&f=false M-W Dict. of English Usage] has this to say: The spelling accidently is not an illiteracy, but it is much less frequent than accidentally, and even though it has some reputable use.

The 1998 Columbia Guide to Standard American English goes further and says: Indeed, many conservative people consider accidently a misspelling, and some conservative dictionaries do not even record it as a variant, though it has been accepted off and on for many years.

It is listed alongside accidentally as a variant at both The Free Dictionary and Merriam-Webster.

Thus accidently is neither a misspelling nor obsolete. It's a variant that has been noted since Middle English. --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 17:56, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

 * You present a good argument, but I cannot agree that "by chance" is an exact synonym of "by accident" in most modern usage. The majority of the recent uses I find in Google Books are by writers for whom English is not their first language, hence I incline towards the OED's "conservative" approach, but perhaps our entry does need some adjustment.  What does anyone else think?    D b f  i  r  s   07:36, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

 * About the only time I can think of off the top of my head where they aren't truly synonymous is when "by chance" means possibly ... As in, You weren't, by chance, thinking of me were you?. Otherwise by chance and by accident can mostly be swapped without loss meaning. But that is a side point ... the true frain here is whether accidently and accidentally are synonymous which I think they are. In my neck of the woods, folks mostly say accidently. They may write accidentally owing to the spell-check on their computer, but in speaking, it is accidently. It has a hella long history and a continuous use. Soothfast, I eathly found in a CPA study guide just released this year (2012). If I ever get the net working at my house again, I'll rewrite the entry unless someone has some real heartburn about it. --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 22:00, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

 * I don't think they are synonymous. "I fell down a hole by chance" (it was random, a coincidence). "I fell down a hole by accident" (it was unintentional, I didn't mean to; maybe I knew the hole was there). Equinox ◑ 22:11, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

 * So you want to take out the meaningby chance from accidentally as well? My main point here is that accidently = accidentally. The meaning by chance is one of the meanings of accidentally. If yu hav a beef with it, then yu need to take it out of accidentally as well. Yu can't take it out of one and leave it in the other. --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 14:49, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

 * The fact that people where AnWulf lives abbreviate their pronunciation of the word "accidentally", doesn't mean that they are using the obsolete word "accidently" as it was used in Middle English. I wouldn't be happy with a re-written entry along the lines AnWulf suggests.    D b f  i  r  s   17:10, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

 * I'v rewritten the entry. It is, more or less, the same as accidentally. I put the meanings under one def rather than two. If someone wants to split 'em out, that ok by me. So if yu hav a beef with the meanings, then yu'll need to change accidentally also. I also put in a ME shape of it. --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 14:49, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

Sorry but this is wrong. OED.com clearly says accidently is "now nonstandard" and arcane: http://www.oed.com/view/Entry/1066?redirectedFrom=accidently#eid

Modern uses of "accidently" are spelling mistakes, which coincidentally match a spelling from centuries past - just like "disasterous" etc. The discussion here re "by accident" or "by chance" isn't relevant. However we define it, its correct spelling is "accidentally" unless a writer is deliberately trying to invoke an olde worlde style in their prose.

Talk:I'll be a monkey's uncle

 * "From: Talk:monkey's uncle"

I get confused over whether a term is UK or Australian, since I've spent about half my life in each place. But I certainly have long used "I don't give a monkey's uncle". It might however be a polite version of "I don't give a monkey's toss" that I acquired by confusion ? The phrase "well I'll be a monkey's uncle" is/was understood in the UK, but not much used. Don't think I've heard it in Australia in 30 years. That usage might now be considered Archaic ??--Richardb 14:21, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

 * "From: WT:RFC"

Needs to be made into a proper entry. SemperBlotto 20:00, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

 * I stabbed at it. Is this US-specific, or do you use it over there on your side of the pond to?  --Connel MacKenzie T C 20:08, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
 * see talk:monkey's uncle--Richardb 14:22, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

RfD discussion.
I'm pretty sure that I'll be a monkey's uncle is the more appropriate, but not completely. What if someone searches for "monkey's uncle"? I didn't much like the redirect. DAVilla 16:04, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

 * The various forms of an idiom are redirected to the most common form. Since both are 'disdained' multi-word terms, certainly the redirect is more appropriate?  That's my understanding of our rules for them - if that is wrong, I'd certainly like to know.  --Connel MacKenzie 16:21, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep as a redirect to the idiom. "Monkey's uncle" has no meaning by itself, as far as I am aware, other than the literal meaning. — Paul G 11:25, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

 * And never will, we'd hope. Connel's argument makes sense but this one is just so short, it kinda stood out. DAVilla 19:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Okay, already reverted to redirect. DAVilla 19:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Etymology
Old-fashioned quip intuitively relates to an expression of disbelief in Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species. Perhaps because of the centrality of this example in popular culture and the longevity of the related controversy, the quip has retained use.

 * The reference to "The Fine arts journal" is absolutely incorrect. As one reads the story which is in the journal, there is actually a monkey character, and the character's uncle, Mr. Oxberry is an other character. Therefore I removed it. 68.83.70.253

Talk:Phoenix

 * "From: WT:RFC"

Has lots of definitions, some of which are really encyclopedic (eg, "A TV show") and some of which are too vague (eg, "A TV show", again - what, any TV show, or a specific TV show?). If we are going to keep all (or even most) of these, then the entry desperately needs translation tables. — Paul G 12:00, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * I have added Swedish translations and modified and reordered some of the senses slightly. It is a quite intresting entry because there are some many possible meanings (See Phoenix). If we can make this a good entry it could stand as a model for other entries. I'm not really sure exactly what we should do. There are at least 4 important senses (capital city of Arízona, firebird, constellation, character in Illiad) that we definitely should keep and have links to Wikipedia. Then there is the issue of ordering. I changed the ordering slightly moving the 4 that I thought important first. So perhaps we should mark the others as less likely meanings somewhat. This needs to be carefully considered. --Patrik Stridvall 14:35, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * The presence of a sense in Wikipedia does not automatically mean that Wiktionary should also give this sense, so this list should definitely be trimmed. For example, the "TV show" definition should go - Wikipedia does a good job of describing these already, and it's hard to see how you could define these usefully without reproducing Wikipedia's content.  I feel we should keep:

 * the place names (geographical names are OK)
 * the constellation (astronomical names are OK)
 * the mythological character (mythological names are OK)
 * the nickname for Japan (nicknames are OK)

 * and ditch:

 * the firebird (reason: isn't it only spelled with a lower-case p, or was there a particular phoenix called "Phoenix"? The definition as given suggests "Phoenix" can apply to any phoenix)
 * the Marvel Comics character (reason: fictional character)
 * the web browser (reason: not sufficiently well-known [unlike Netscape or Internet Explorer])
 * the missile (reason: encyclopedic)
 * the TV show (reason: encyclopedic)
 * the software tool (reason: encyclopedic)
 * the engine (reason: encyclopedic)
 * the ships and steamboat (reason: encyclopedic)

 * — Paul G 14:50, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * As for the firebird. Well, I'm not sure. The Wikipedia article is not clear on that point, but I have always seen it spelled in Swedish with a capital letter "Fågel Fenix" (English: "Bird Phoenix") so I have always assume there was one particular mythical being that was worshipped by the ancient Egyptians. After all it is an immortal being that was reborn when it died. In later myths and fantasy literature there is sometimes many of them, but there is still one orginal phoenix AFAIK.

 * On this page it say it could only be one. It is not spelled spelled with capital letter there though so perhaps English does it differently. Swedish does do it as I remember, I have search in Google. But perhaps the Swedish translation should go on the phoenix page instead as a sense for the particular phoenix in Egyptian mythology. --Patrik Stridvall 15:56, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * As for the others, sure remove them, we always have the Wikipedia page if we wish to readd them. Note that Phoenix is former name of the Mozilla Firefox web browser so the term not used any longer longer either. --Patrik Stridvall 15:56, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

 * Agreed. I've made the suggested cleanups, and have added information as well to the article. --EncycloPetey 12:17, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Talk:semantic

"semantic" is given as an adjective. Can it ever be a noun or is it always plural?

 * semantics isn't really a plural, it is uncountable, it is spelled that way because it derives from a Greek plural. So there is no singular noun form "semantic". Takes singular or plural noun concordance: "Semantics is the study of ...", "The semantics of ... are ..." Robert Ullmann 12:05, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

RFV discussion: December 2018
Rfv-sense: In such writing systems as the Chinese writing system, the portion of a phono-semantic character that provides an indication of its meaning; contrasted with phonetic. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 08:55, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
 * The term was used in this sense in the Wikipedia article as late as November 9, 2017, but that cannot be used as a source. It means that we have to be careful, though, that uses found are not just mirroring this strange former use in Wikipedia.
 * There seems to be a use here (see the last line of the bootom of the page); one can seriously question, though, if this is truly a noun rather than the adjectival use of “the semantic one” in which the word “one” has been omitted – which I think it is.
 * A more clearcut use is perhaps here (on p. 21), but in snippet view I can’t see whether this is in the context of characters being phono-semantic – search inside the book reports no matches for that term.
 * Finally, one undoubtedly genuine attestation is here, on p. 25. That is all I have found. --Lambiam 12:11, 12 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Sure. It's even a formal medieval form of the name, when the -zhou was treated as an actual Zhou. — LlywelynII  06:39, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Mandarin readings
Can it be explained in which contexts the two different Mandarin readings are used? 71.66.97.228 16:44, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
 * That would be very helpful, yes. I assume Hang is used for the city and crossing definitions, but Kang might be an early variant reading. — LlywelynII  06:39, 31 July 2016 (UTC)

Pinyin capitalization
There are lower-case and upper-case definitions here and the box should give them. An editor has been disagreeing on that point, but we're providing the pinyin romanizations of these terms and not just IPA pronunciations, regardless of the section name.

If there's some (incorrect) consensus to only provide one form of the pinyin (either capped or not), the default should be the capitalized form and not the lower-case. The lower-case definitions are all obsolete. — LlywelynII  06:39, 31 July 2016 (UTC)
