Appendix:Latin pronunciation

 * See also About Latin and Category:Latin language.

The tables below show the IPA equivalents for Latin sounds.

Vowels
Classical Latin had both long and short vowels. For all vowel pairs besides (the most open), the short versions are reconstructed as being more phonetically open in most contexts than their long counterparts, which resulted later in the merging of short i and u with long ē and ō in the Italo-Western Romance languages (such as Italian) after the loss of phonemic vowel length.

Symbols used in Wiktionary entries
Note the inverted breve, which indicates that the vowel does not form a separate syllable.

Comments on vowel qualities and quantities
Per Allen, the long mid vowels ē ō /eː oː/ were phonetically high-mid [eː oː] and the short mid vowels e o /e o/ were in most circumstances open-mid [ɛ ɔ]. Allen argues that /e/ likely had a closer allophone when followed by a vowel (transcribed in Wiktionary entries by ), and an opener allophone when followed by the consonant /r/ (not marked in Wiktionary entries; Allen says "the degree of opening is unknown" and suggests that "there is no point in attempting to reproduce it").

The long close vowels ī ū /iː uː/ were phonetically fully close [iː uː]. The short close vowels i u /i u/ were per Allen near-close, except for when followed by a vowel (as in , ), where they likely had closer allophones (transcribed on Wiktionary by ). Some evidence suggests that before   may have been raised to  or both raised and lengthened to ; for this reason, this sequence is sometimes written as īgn in dictionaries or linguistic works. But since with short  represents both the length expected from the etymology, and the length implied by various inherited Romance descendants such as, , this sequence is written on Wiktionary as ign.

The close vowel pair y ȳ was not part of the native Latin sound system; the letter was adopted to represent the value of Attic Greek υ (/y yː/) in words borrowed from Greek. Formerly, υ was adapted as u (as in  from ), a replacement that in some cases continued to be used. In the Classical period, words spelled with y ȳ were likely pronounced by educated Latin speakers with the value of the Greek vowel or an approximation of it, meaning long ȳ was phonetically and short y was phonetically either  or possibly.

I vs J
In Latin, the letter written as I in ancient times was either a vowel or a consonant, or rarely a sequence of consonant and vowel, depending on position and the word, the vowel being most common. The two forms had different pronunciation and different metrical treatment in poetry.

An early modern typographical convention (originating in medieval scripts) is to write J for the consonant form and leave I for the vowel. This is applied both to ordinary words and proper nouns. A similar modern convention exists in writing the vowel V as U (see U and V for more). But while U is very commonly written, the use of J is more variable.

Generally speaking, modern Latin-English dictionaries always use I; however, in the 19th and early 20th centuries the use of J was more widespread (for example, the substantial 1879 dictionary of ). Reprints of classical works on the other hand sometimes write J and sometimes write I. Ecclesiastical works use J more commonly than scholarly classical works, but not to the exclusion of I.

The exclusive use of I never results in ambiguity about the identity of a word, as there are no words that are distinguished solely by the use of I versus J (unlike U versus V; see below).

Pronunciation
As a vowel, As a consonant, As a consonant–vowel sequence
 * (Classical): IPA: short, long
 * (Classical):, but doubled when between vowels
 * (Classical): after a vowel (e.g. ),  after a consonant (e.g. )

U vs V
In Latin, the letter written as V in ancient times represented either a vowel or a consonant depending on its position and the word. These two forms had distinct pronunciations and different metrical treatment in poetry.

A modern typographical convention is to write U for the vowel and leave V as the consonant. Generally speaking dictionaries write U this way and the majority of reprints of classical texts adapt them and show U too. The use of V for the vowel in new works is usually a deliberately classical style or appearance, and that includes for example in inscriptions on new monuments and the like.

Note that there are words where V and U contrast: is the third-person singular present of, pronounced  in two syllables; while  is the third-person singular perfect of , pronounced  in three syllables.

Pronunciation
As consonant, As vowel,
 * (Classical): IPA:, (in Greek loanwords between vowels)
 * (Classical): IPA: short, long

Consonants

 * Consonants: b (ps, pt) k d f g (ŋ) h j k l m n p kw r s t w ks z kʰ pʰ tʰ

Allophones of /r/
Latin has one rhotic consonant, which is transcribed as /r/ in the phonemic transcription used on Wiktionary. The phoneme /r/ likely had multiple phonetic realizations (allophones) in Classical Latin.

An alveolar trill [r] was likely a common realization in at least the following two contexts: at the start of a word after a pause, or when the consonant was geminated (doubled) as /r.r/ [rː], such as in the word. Most sources describe the trill [r] as the primary pronunciation of Classical Latin /r/.

A alveolar tap (or flap) [ɾ] was likely a possible allophone of singleton (non-geminate) /r/ in some cases, especially in word-medial intervocalic position. A minority of sources describe the tap [ɾ] as the primary pronunciation of Classical Latin /r/.

There is disagreement about the overall frequency of tap versus trill realizations of /r/. Various contextual factors may have influenced which allophone was used, such as the identity of the surrounding sounds, the position of word and morpheme boundaries, prosody, speech rate, or speech style. Aside from trills and taps, other sounds such as fricatives may have been used as allophonic pronunciations of the phoneme /r/.

Because of the uncertain distribution of the trill and tap realizations of /r/, and because the IPA recognizes [r] as a valid broad transcription of the tap [ɾ], the phonetic transcriptions in Wiktionary entries do not differentiate between the possible allophones of Latin /r/, and use only the transcription [r].

Ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation
In most Latin lemma entries, Wiktionary provides an Ecclesiastical Latin pronunciation reflecting the “Italianate” standard adopted in most of the Roman Catholic Church in the 19th century. The Italianate pronunciation is derived from modern Italian, and thus includes Italianisms not known in Classical Latin such as /t͡ʃ/ for c before e or i. See at Wikipedia for more.

User talk:RandySteer

Please see Entry layout explained for the norms of section order in Wiktionary entries. --EncycloPetey 01:37, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

EncycloPetey -- If you are referring to my choice to put the etymology of one or more of my contributions at the bottom rather than at the top, I took note of the opening statement in the guidelines to which you referred me: "While the information below may represent some kind of "standard" form, it is not a set of rigid rules."

I felt the etymology got in the way of a reader trying to find a definition, so I put it at the end where it serves its purpose as additional or enhancing -- but not core -- information.

I would note that the standard layout in all printed dictionaries I have ever used (both British and American) puts the etymology at the end of an entry, and I think that's very logical. Etymologies are not central to a person knowing how to use a word correctly (i.e. knowing its grammatical forms, pronunciation, and meaning), and in fact they are sometimes speculative. As such they serve as additional discussion about a word -- in the same category as quotation examples -- but should not become a distraction to a reader trying to "get to the point". The best way to do this is to place the etymology after the definition(s).

As the layout guide notes, the editors are free to rearrange my entries, but I feel strongly about this and will continue to put the etymologies after the definitions in my future contributions. I'd like the Wiktionary to be as popular and easy-to-use as dictionary.com, and the efficiency with which users can get the information they want is a key ingredient in that.

 * Foster v Diphwys Casson (1887) 18 QBD 428, involved a statute which stated that explosives taken into a mine must be in a "case or canister". Here the defendant used a cloth bag. The courts had to consider whether a cloth bag was within the definition. Under noscitur a sociis, it was held that the bag could not have been within the statutory definition, because parliament's intention was referring to a case or container of the same strength as a canister.

Talk:Alah

In Bosnian language, to write the word "Allah" with one l is incorrect. Since the language recognizes the word as a foreign one, it should always be written in its original form - "Allah". Therefore, "Alah" is not an alternate spelling of "Allah". It is simply incorrect spelling.

On the other side, when writing in cyrillic, in this case it is mandatory to put only one l (Aлах), or to write it in roman script. "Аллах" is not acceptable. —This unsigned comment was added by 195.222.52.142 (talk • contribs) 2006-08-10 12:25.

 * Not true. Look at various literary sources, as well as Škaljić's dictionary of Turkisms.  He clearly states the word is "Alah".  However he does note that "Allah" is more correct, but is not necessarily in general use.  So, either way, both terms are correct.  I will note that in recent times, in order to be more "Arabicized", more people are using double "l" version. --Dijan 04:09, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Talk:fiú

Hi, it cannot be that hungarian Fiù come from latin Filius?? look strange that come from finnish poika!
 * Hungarian had a regular shift of consonants from p > f, and that takes us a bit along the way already, to something like *fojka. Hungarian has displayed loss of non-initial consonants in many other cases; compare Finnish maksa to the Hungarian cognate which is simply máj. We can now assume something like *foj, althought something may had happened to the vowel at this point too. We're already closing in on it.

 * Now, Romania and Hungary are neighbouring countries, and there are even Hungarian speakers in Transylvania of Romania. The word for son in Romanian is fiu. It is not unreasonable to assume that Hungarian's already very similar word for the same thing would have been influenced phonetically by the Romanian word. It would thus have a connection to Latin filius, from which the Romanian word is descended, indeed, but at the same time be a native, Uralic word as well. Skomakar'n (talk) 01:32, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

Template talk:given name

Comments
I think that this template should be altered; to either
 * 1) have categorisation not default (as it does at present) to Category:Given names, but rather allows a user to insert the word into one or both of the categories Category:Female given names, Category:Male given names, by some parameter.
 * 2) establish more specific templates for  (which is to categorise to this category),  (to categorise the this category), and  (to categorise entries into both categories : in the case of names such as Ashley and others which are given names for both males and females).

I am most certainly willing to design the latter templates; and I could probably figure out how to do the first option, too, if someone were to explain parameters to me. Does anyone oppose this or have any suggestions? Beobach972 19:17, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

 * It has been done. Or, it has been begun, at least. Beobach972 19:35, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

 * You don't need specific templates. Just have the category change based on the male/female parameter in this template.... — [ ric | opiaterein ] — 14:51, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Standardize to lang
I think the second parameter should be switched now that we have a template naming convention for these things. It should be "lang=de" instead of "de:". --Connel MacKenzie 01:14, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I agree, someone who has a bot and the necessary experience could arrange for any current template inclusion syntax to be fixed.--Williamsayers79 11:16, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Interwiki request
Please add sl:Predloga:osebno ime. --Andrejj 16:06, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Would it not make more sense to have template interwiki's on the Talk pages, seeing as we don't have any other information on the template page? Conrad.Irwin 16:10, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Done (using the /doc pattern). --Bequw → τ 21:26, 24 April 2010 (UTC)

Uncategorized
The template is uncategorized. Again, I voice my opinion that having these templates protected is a bad solution to a minuscule problem. __meco 18:43, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Where do you want to Categorize it? I will unprotect it as it needs editing. Conrad.Irwin 18:48, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I haven't categorized any templates before, but Category:Templates that call language and Category:Entry templates perhaps? __meco 18:57, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't many people have, maybe that's our problem. Category:Templates that call language should be redundant to the automatic list. Should this template be in the same category as or that crowd? Conrad.Irwin 18:59, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * It should be categorized no matter what. If we don't find an appropriate existing category, we should put it into Category:Uncategorized templates. Then some attention will see to it that it gets a fitting category. __meco 19:04, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
 * See WT:I2T the only current template organisation tool. We really ought to sort them all out, but there are bazillions of them and I don't have the patience, though don't let me discourage you. Conrad.Irwin 19:13, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

From immediate or ultimate ancestor
If more of the etymology is known, which is preferable for the from field: the immediate parent language, or the ultimate origin? I'm specifically looking at Ukrainian Михайло, which was borrowed into OES. and inherited by Ukrainian: Hebrew > Greek > (Church Slavonic) > Old East Slavic ... Ukrainian. —Michael Z. 2008-08-26 15:39 z

Categorising diminutives
Could someone update the template to automatically categorise diminutive forms. We could add a "diminutive=yes" parameter to the template, which would modify the auto-included category:

 * from  [[Category: given names
 * to  [[Category:  given names

It would need a more careful inspection, given that there are other variables which affect categorisation. The placement of diminutives of is also open to discussion, though some categories with this naming already exist. Consider, for example, Category:Italian diminutives of male given names and its parent Category:Italian male given names. Mind matrix  21:07, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Is there no interest in this? I'd make the changes myself, but I don't have sufficient privileges to edit the template. Mind  matrix  14:09, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

sorting
Would it be possible to add a parameter for sorting? I am thinking of Japanese, where given names are usually written in kanji, the logographic script, but it would be better to sort by hiragana, the phonetic script, which is how Japanese dictionaries are written. This is already done with the hidx parameter in headword line templates, skey in Template:context, and sort in Template:suffix. It's up to the editor to provide the right phonetic script version for that field, and the template just has to use that for sorting. It makes things look much better and of course it makes it easier for readers to find what they are looking for. Thanks! Haplology 15:16, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Done, I hope. Mglovesfun (talk) 15:18, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks for getting back on this so fast. I tried sort and skey for a few but I can't get them to sort--for example 美智子.  Is sort the field name?  Thanks Haplology 08:31, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Categorization
Shouldn't this template add all relevant categories, rather than the most specific one, save ? For example, Should, in my opinion, categorize in German male given names and Category:German given names from Hebrew (or Category:German male given names from Hebrew). Right now, doesn't add Category:German male given names as it's supersesed rather than accompanied by the latter category. --Mglovesfun (talk) 17:00, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Script error with language.
When using the parameter “lang=hr” or “lang=Croatian”, the template will show “Script error”. Please fix this. But if that’s not the issue, what am I doing wrong? 〜britannic124 (talk) 20:10, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Croatian is treated together with Bosnian, Montenegrin and Serbian as a single language, with the code "sh". The code "hr" was deleted some time ago and no longer works. 20:14, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Multiple diminutives
Is there a way to put multiple diminutives? 〜britannic124 (talk) 20:15, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Equivalent of English
Often an English-language name equivalent is listed after this template, and it would be good to have support for at least 5-6 optional parameters for them. E.g. "An equivalent of English X, Y, Z...". --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 17:32, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Addition of transliterated as parameter
Can someone, who can edit this template, please add a parameter to indicate the transliteration of a name in the sense line. This is useful in situations were there exists a common transliteration that is different from the one used by our system.

For an example see this diff. The name is commonly transliterated as Chava (and also Chavah, Hava and Havva), by us as khavá, and is equivalent to English Eve.

So usage would be something like:
 * A female given name, transliterated Chava, and equivalent to English Eve

Enosh (talk) 13:32, 23 July 2015 (UTC)

Display should show source language
The template categorizes into source language, but does not display it, except in the category section, which may not be visible on long entries. Even when it is, users have probably learned to ignore categorization. I hoped that the eq parameter would do the job, but it insists on displaying only "English" equivalence. Thus a complete entry needs to have an Etymology section to display highly standardized and predictable derivation information. This is a waste of time. DCDuring TALK 13:31, 27 January 2016 (UTC)

Changing terminology male > masculine, female > feminine
See also Sex and gender distinction. I think we should change the text and move the categories. (Weirdly the parameter is already gender.) —Enosh (talk) 20:18, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Should we not also distinguish grammatical and personal gender? —CodeCat 20:25, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Aren't we already distinguishing between them, the gender in the headword-line is grammatical and in personal, no? —Enosh (talk) 11:11, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Changing the text is easy. Moving the categories is doable but will take a bot. I'll post this to Beer Parlour. Benwing2 (talk) 22:34, 9 July 2016 (UTC)

Bug in this template.
As can be seen in Andrei, adding an etymological category overwrites the supercategory, so Given Names Derived From Greek don't get filed in Given Names. Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 20:48, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I don't quite understand, can you explain which categories should be present that aren't present? Benwing2 (talk) 21:00, 5 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Well, basically all of them: 1. Category:Romanian_names 2. Category:Romanian_given_names 3. Category:Romanian_male_given_names. Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 20:26, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

bug
"from" parameter doesn't work properly.--Calak (talk) 13:42, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

Re: A= parameter
What is the point of this parameter?

The only thing I see it used for is to make the initial "A" lowercase. If lowercase is the preferred style, why isn't it the Template's default? If lowercase is not the preferred style, why does the Template allow it? Isn't uniformity of formatting one of the main points of templates?--98.110.34.122 05:08, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Missing nodot

 * This template doesn't add a final period. Benwing2 (talk) 03:34, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

dim= without specifying the base name
You pinged me about being able to indicate a diminutive name without specifying what it's a diminutive of. Having dim with a blank param won't work so well for this purpose but we can use a syntax like + or 1 or something. Benwing2 (talk) 03:33, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

 * That also works for me, though it may be harder to remember.  would also be worth consideration or simply anything that only consists of numbers and (ASCII) symbols. — Fytcha〈 T | L | C 〉 22:06, 18 July 2022 (UTC)

Talk:蝌蝌啃蠟

original post
Not a single hit on Google for this term! I believe wiktionary policy is two or more sources for attestation. A-cai 02:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

post 1

 * Although I've heard the "tadpole chews wax" story, I've never actually heard the term. bd2412 T 04:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

post 2

 * I doubt you will find this on the Internet since it was only used on a hand-painted sign by a single Chinese coke vendor. I researched it with representatives of Coca-Cola several years ago, and this term was used in the early 1900s by a single vendor at a time when Coke had no official Chinese name and every vendor had to decide for himself how to write it in Chinese. This particular version seems to be the origin of the famous "bite the wax tadpole" story of Coca-Cola in Chinese. —Stephen 13:48, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Out of curiosity, I tried googling for the Pinyin of this phrase, "kē kē kěn là" and "ke ke ken la", and got a few hits. —Stephen 02:23, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

post 3
Here are some google hits from Chinese language sites: This site is in English (half-way down the page, note the characters in the logo on the left).
 * I think I've found the problem. The references that I have found on the internet use the following characters: 蝌蝌啃蠟, 蝌蝌啃蜡.
 * Google (PRC)
 * Google (Taiwan)
 * As a side note, the English translation should more accurately be rendered as "the tadpole chews wax," despite the translation given in the above article. 蝌蝌: tadpole + 啃: chews (not "bites")1 + 蠟: wax.

post 4

 * Right. The problem with this has always been complicated by the fact that Chinese store-keepers a hundred years ago were not translators and didn’t follow the practices that modern translators use for writing foreign words in Chinese, and then whoever it was that translated it back into English was probably a company representative in China who didn’t speak or read Chinese very well. "Bite the wax tadpole" seems like what an American who knew the meaning of each character, but who did not know Chinese, would probably say. —Stephen 07:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

post 3 cont.

 * 啃 is a more widely used synonym for 齦. The one remaining question is: Do we have any books or periodicals that we can site which verify that the 齦 character was used, and not 啃?

post 4 cont.

 * There are two or three books about it, written I think around the mid 1900s, but I don’t have access to them anymore and I don’t remember the titles. I think I read them around 1990. —Stephen 07:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

post 3 cont.

 * I'm also not comfortable with the Cantonese reading. I agree that "fo1 fo1 han2 laap6" is an accurate rendition of the Cantonese romanizations of the individual characters in this term.  What is unclear is if Cantonese speakers ever actually used the term, since 蝌蝌齦蠟 is clearly a transliteration of Coca-Cola which is based on the Mandarin romanization of "kēkēkěnlà."  Actually, I take that back, here is the Min Nan rendering: kho-kho-khè-la̍h (蝌蝌啃蠟) vs. kho-kho-khín-la̍h (蝌蝌齦蠟).  Given the time period, it is not unreasonable that the transliteration of Coca-Cola would be based on Min Nan.  This would especially be true if the Coca-Cola branch in question was based in Amoy, Singapore or Malaysia.
 * 1) I know this may sound like quibbling, but as long as we're talking about obscurities, why only stop half-way;)

post 4 cont.

 * I agree, I really don’t believe the Cantonese ever used that pronunciation. Since each vendor made his own rendition, I imaging that store-owners in Hong Kong would have used different characters that better represented the sound in Cantonese. But an origin in Min Nan makes much more sense. One of the long time theories that I have heard was that it probably originated with some weird dialect, and Min Nan fits the bill. Until very recently, the only dialects that were well known in the U.S. were Mandarin and Cantonese. —Stephen 07:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

post 5

 * The Chinese version of the wikipedia Coca-Cola article mentions that Coca-Cola was manufactured in Shanghai. If true, it is also possible that the transliteration is based on Shanghainese (a variant of the Wu dialect).  Unfortunately, I don't speak Shanghainese, and have been unable to locate a usable on-line Shanghainese dictionary.  If we could locate one, we would be able to determine whether or not this is a possibility.

 * 啃 is defined in HSK 汉语水平考试词典 (Hanyu Shuiping Kaoshi Cidian, ISBN 7561720785)as: 用牙齿一点儿一点儿地使劲把紧紧依附在某物上面的东西咬下来 (gnaw; nibble).
 * My English translation: Use teeth to little by little exert energy to bite off things that are tightly attached to something (gnaw; nibble).
 * 咬 is defined in HSK as:  上下牙齿对着用力或是夹紧物体,或使一部分从整体上分离下来 (bite; snap at).
 * My English translation: upper and lower teeth apply force against each other or clamp onto an object, or cause one part to be separated from the whole.
 * While bite is not technically incorrect, it is slightly misleading in that it does not convey the sense of continuous action. This is why chew, gnaw or nibble are better choices.

post 4 cont.

 * I agree. It’s why I think the original backtranslation was done by someone who really didn¥t know Chinese. —Stephen 07:34, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Since I don't speak any of the above languages, and my computer is showing me a bunch of squares and no Chinese characters, I am putting this on the talk page and hoping someone else will make the decision. Andrew massyn 19:40, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
