I have added the Request for Cleanup tag to this article, since I am aware that both of the noun examples are in actuality technically either adjectives or part of noun phrases deserving of their own entry. I am not familiar enough with the usage of "matte" to resolve the problem. GreetingsEarthling 06:56, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Error - confused a homophone?
This regards one of the Noun definitions.

Leaving aside that "decorative border for a picture" is not quite accurate/specific enough (that leaves out that it is a separate item that generally must physically overlap the picture, as opposed to a decorative border included in the design), the ONLY other source I have found so far that includes the spelling "matte" for this usage, is Encyclopedia.com...which includes this text:

"a sheet of cardboard placed on the back of a picture, either as a mount or to form a border around the picture."

Which has, itself, a notable error I'd like to add, or at least omission, in that it leaves out that it can overlap the front of a picture, and isn't just "placed on the back" of a picture (in fact, most "mats" in this usage of the word are placed on the front, not back, with a hole, generally referred to as a "window", cut in the front)

Now, in fairness, Encyclopedia.com claims that it got its definition from "The Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English" 2009 edition. However, again, there's an error of omission in that definition; also concerning is the simple fact that no (American English?) source I have found so far agrees with that being a proper spelling of the word "mat". (Which, sidebar: kudos to whomever included the appropriate noun definition's phrasing on that page, it's much better)

Further, I work with mat boards in the art/picture framing sense regularly, including having access to catalogs for the things. Everywhere/everyone that I have ever seen it spells it as "mat", not "matte". Now, I work in the US, so it is not completely impossible that there's an obscure British-only alternate spelling of "matte" given that even words like "gray/grey" and "color/colour" have different spellings over there and that alternate spellings do exist for various words to begin with. However, the fact that most sources I've seen don't seem to even list it in their entries on "Matte", even as a dictionary, not even with "chiefly British" for that particular usage, implies to me that it is a rare usage at best (and possibly exclusively British if it does exist? But very rare), and either way, it should be corrected to reflect this, surely?

I don't have access to that particular dictionary at the moment, so I can't even check if "The Oxford Pocket Dictionary of Current English" 2009 edition has that entry - though frankly, a later edition of OED is probably preferable, as it may have been corrected? Either way though, if nothing else the wording feels off. But I feel like it should probably be removed unless someone can prove that that's even a common spelling of it, with dictionary sourcing - I'm reluctant to do so without discussion, but I wanted to point out this potential issue. 97.102.79.98 03:05, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Alternative forms

 * (very colloquial)

Etymology
Phonetic shift: →  →.

From, the adverbial form of and Classical Japanese adjective ,   from.

Modern Japanese -i adjectives formerly ended in -ki for the attributive form. This medial dropped out during the, both for the attributive form (-ki becoming -i) and for the adverbial form (-ku becoming -u). However, the adverbial form reverted back to -ku thereafter for most words, with the -u ending persisting in certain everyday set expressions, such as arigatō,, or , and in hyper-formal speech.

Arigatashi is first attested in the oldest literature of the 8th century. It originally meant “difficult to exist, hard to be”,  shifting to “rare, special”, and then to “welcome, thankful, nice to have” by some time in the 15th century. This sense is still in use:

Any resemblance to 🇨🇬 is purely coincidental. The Portuguese first arrived in Japan in 1543, well over a century after citations expressing gratitude are found.

Talk:fey

I recently noticed in Samuel Johnson's (sp?) dictionary that fey is also a verb, having something to do with cleaning or clearing, perhaps as in "fey out the gutters". Can't find any reference to this on the internet, though so maybe it is too old to be of interest. Hogghogg 17:31, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I think archaic uses should also be included. The fact that it is hard to find information on the verb would make this information all the more useful. Mgiganteus 16:15, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

The example sentence uses "physics" to modify "class" and thus it makes the word look like an adjective! Hogghogg 17:46, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

It is normally OK to use a noun in an attributive manner as if it was an adjective. This is how we get words like bus stop. SemperBlotto 17:58, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

 * That's true, SB, my (trvial) point is just that there might be a better sentence; of course, if I had one (and I ought to, since I am a physicist), I would put it in there! Hogghogg 18:29, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

The word itself didn't post correctly. I initially supposed his browser converted the characters to '?'

But, after installing the CODE2001 font, the characters show up. So, it doesn't indicate this well when using surrogates, I guess. Confusing!
