Talk:top dead center

Is it a noun?
I am waffling between noun and adjective for this article. I'm not much of a dictionarian. It occurs to me that since top dead center describes a place in the combustion process that it is a noun. However, the fact that it describes that place makes me think it is an adjective. But then I think, I'm not saying "that stroke is very top-dead-centery", I am saying "the stroke has arrived at top dead center." So I think it is probably a noun. Avriette 16:57, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * I'd have to say Noun. Person, place or thing.  Top dead center is a place on a flywheel, used as a reference point.  --Connel MacKenzie 17:07, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

 * Well, in the phrase "top dead centre position" t.d.c. would be an adjectival phrase, but I have never seen that usage - it is always "top dead centre" used as a noun. SemperBlotto 17:15, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Talk:median

= clarity = this is entirely unclear. at least the mathematical definition. this is from the wikipedia:

 * In probability theory and statistics, the median of a sample or a population is a number that separates the lowest-value half and the highest-value half.

I much prefer this definition, and may change it unless somebody objects. Avriette 23:57, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I entirely agree and will proceed to change itAlfonsedode (talk) 16:59, 8 April 2015 (UTC)

Another definition
Isn't the median also the open space (usually grassy) which separates halves of a major highway in the US? --Cromwellt|Talk|Contribs 23:33, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, that's correct. I've added it. Avriette 21:03, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Usage notes
Slightly is often used by the English to mean almost the opposite, something like rather. For example, "The big picture here of course is that still staggeringly low numbers of these migrants are being hired though, isn't it? And despite these rather positive tales we've just heard, there seems to be a broader, slightly grimmer picture which perhaps will have a lesson for other countries thinking of receiving migrants."

Usage notes
The word is sometimes deemed erroneous. The American source M-W's Webster's Dictionary of English Usage, 1989, eventually settles on accepting it, but has this to say: "Bache 1869 and Ayres 1881 succinctly insulted contemporaries who used this word, calling them vulgar and unschooled. Times have changed: modern critics merely insult the word itself. Follett 1966, for example, claims that overly is useless, superfluous, and unharmonious, and should be replaced by the prefix over-. Bryson 1984 adds that 'when this becomes overinelegant ... the alternative is to find another adverb [...]'." The prefix over- is safer, and accepted by all: "He seemed over-anxious." M-W, AHD4, and RH include the word without comment, and OED notes only "After the Old English period, rare (outside Scotland and North America) until the 20th cent." In most cases "too" or "excessively" would be better choices than "over-".

Talk:biannual

The "Note" section is in the wrong place with the wrong heading level I think. — Hippietrail 10:44, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Removed "biennual" as an antonym of "biannial". Simply speaking, it doesn't make sense for them to be antonyms. That aside, no other dictionary (Webster, Encarta, Cambridge, et al) indicates them as antonyms, so I don't think that they are. 124.106.233.81

Why are we recording rare mis-use of the word? I have not checked all 1.5 million Google hits, but all of the first 100 are for the correct usage. We could find quotes for incorrect usage of most words, but surely Wikipedia is not the place to record rare mis-use of words! Dbfirs 10:09, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Dictionary.com (under their "bi-" entry) explain that in the publishing world, bi-weekly always means fortnightly, and bi-monthly always means every two months. However, in the same publishing world, bi-annually almost always means twice a year.  It is easy to see where the confusion arose with the universally recognised biennial.  Dbfirs 21:53, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Correct me if I'm mistaken, but are encyclopedias not for the recording of clear, correct information, rather than unclear or incorrect information? The inclusion of "biannual" with a meaning synonymous with "biennial" will hardly reduce the confusion surrounding the word.  I would like the second definition to be removed - I will not make this edit myself, as I am not familiar with Wikitionary's guidelines regarding questionable definitions.  Anybody who does know the guidelines and does want to remove it, feel free. --148.177.193.210 05:59, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * You are correct except in two matters. Firstly, Wiktionary is a dictionary, not an encyclopaedia Don't worry, I've made a similar mistake myself.  Secondly, the policy of Wiktionary is to record how words are actually used (with guidelines about how some people think they ought to be used).  I am completely in agreement with you about the mis-use of biannual when biennial is intended.  I was taught to distinguish between the two words.  We record this "official view" by using the "proscribed" tag.  It remains true, however, that surprisingly many people, some of them well-educated, use biannual to mean every two years, so I don't think it would be fair to delete the "proscribed" entry which simply records educated usage.  (This "mis-use" dates as far back as the Illustrated Sydney News of 1884.)    D b f  i  r  s   08:45, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
