Talk:often

Why is the "T" not pronounced?
If the word "often" is derived from the word "oft," then why is it preferred not to pronounce the "T" (i.e., sounds like "off in")?

 * A lot of people do pronounce the /t/, but often it just gets softened (there's another one) through a process known as elision. Widsith 16:23, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Could we get some clarification here on which pronunciation is proper? I came here to settle a disagreement with a roomie and there was nothing useful. -- Thanks

 * Please define what you mean by "proper". English has no language academy. AHD and Encarta give various pronunciations for American English: /ˈɔfən/, /ˈɒfən/, /ˈɔftən/, /ˈɒftən/. On Answers.com you can read about changes in English which affected the pronunciation and spelling of this word in the 15th and 19th centuries: http://www.answers.com/often — Hippietrail 19:18, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

This is where your wrong. Every word has one pronunctiation. You should have learned this in English class. If you pronounce it with a "t" it is not proper. Just because George Bush couldn't pronounce the word nuclear doesn't mean the pronunctiation is changed.

 * Many words have multiple pronunciations, even among one person (either)--Simplificationalizer (talk) 23:49, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

While it may be off subject, the above comment is a wonderful example of irony. 50.25.65.187 22:12, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

A friend of mine that has lived in Canada told me that the pronunciation with the 't' (/ˈɔftən/) is very common there. She is an English teacher and lived in the central region of Canada. I myself have never met this pronunciation.Panglossa 00:18, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

 * /ˈɔftən/ with a 't' is also commonly heard in Texas. This is a result of a current trend to speak as you spell, where the etymological spelling of a word influences its long-established pronunciation. —Stephen 11:13, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

The 't' is silent as in soften and hasten. Pronouncing the 't' is a bad habit being spread by barely educated news reporters and others on TV.

 * Please indicate your level of education and the levels of education of which reporters and others in particular on TV. — hippietrail 12:57, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

The previous author doesn't mention whether he pronounces the t in often or not so asking his own level of education is irrevelant. The fact that they are badly educated can be presumed if they are doing something wrong. It has nothing particular with where they went to school, college or university. -Paul W

 * You have an opinion. You are judging others based on this opinion. You are not even attempting to back up your opinion with facts. If this is the way you were educated to debate then I suggest you are badly educated. Please present your case. — hippietrail 21:53, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

- No problems with pronouncing the 't' according to my UK 1972 Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary. It offers four pronunciations for the word, while for most words, including 'soften,' it offers only one : (I read the answers.com entry, these are different; 1st: the initial 'o' sound is same as in 'off' and there is no 'e' sound, making it 'of'n'; 2nd - again no 'e', but the 'o' sound is identical to that of 'ORphan.' The other two have the 'o' sound from 'off' and a(pronounced) 'mute e' sounds, the third with no audible 't', the 4th with. - So unlike pronouncing 't' in 'soften' this dictionary does not here consider an audible 't' wrong.)

As for preferable, I can only imagine a posh, old-fashioned actor saying 2, and 1 sounds posh too. I use 3 and 4 depending on where the word occurs in a phrase and how I am talking. I would expect to hear the 't' more frequently if someone was, say, slowly reading a technical or academic text aloud, but even in the most formal context, to my ears it sometimes sounds right without. - The third, ie without a 't,' is the most commonly heard, I would say.

My understanding of pronunciation is that it can be preferable to soften a strong regional accent and to to limit idiosyncratic social group or personal variations, otherwise where there there are recognised (accepted) variants, say whatever seems most natural. I wouldn't have expected that American English had more rules in this regard than UK English, although the above comments suggest that may be the case. It has been suggested that the fact that Americans do not have a tradition of speaking English reaching back as far as it does in the UK may influence certain attitudes and practices such as trying to sound distinguished by pronouncing the 't', or over-hastliy labelling someone 'uneducated' because of their pronunciation. 87.194.197.12 02:58, 28 July 2010 (UTC)brumstudent4576

The t is silent. Anyone that pronounces the t is uneducated. This should be obvious, see: soften, hasten, listen, moisten, fasten, etc. 98.165.151.225 10:59, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
 * No, anyone that makes anonymous patronizing comments is uneducated. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:20, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Actually American speech and manners have been known to preserve the older and often most formal way of the past. An example is the handling of the knife and fork. Switching hands with the fork and eating off the upturned fork is the older and formal way of handling the fork. Eating off the back of the fork without changing hands, is a newer fashion in Britain and Europe and has generally been considered incorrect in America. As for Americans having a limited history with the English language, the person making this comment is joking is he not? You are aware that we were English and Scottish colonists.

 * It is rather unlikely that American English speakers preserve a pronunciation habit that fell out of use in the 15th century, i. e., the sounding of the t. The more natural explanation is that sounding the t is an instance of spelling pronunciation, a kind of hypercorrection. Hypercorrections are considered a mark of the middle class in the UK: people who orient themselves towards the upper echelons of society are more likely to overgeneralise or make erroneous assumptions as to what sounds "more correct", "more formal", "more high-register" ("fancier"), "more polite" or simply "upper class", assuming that (what are seen as exclusively) popular or lower/working class habits are to be eschewed. This explains the phenomenon described under U and non-U English where upper class usage often aligns with lower/working class usage and may even sound shockingly vulgar at times. It turns out that those who mince their words and use affections are (in many cases) not the upper class, but the middle class, simply assuming – wrongly – that such is the habit of the upper class. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 09:41, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Most people who emigrated to America weren't English or Scottish colonists. They were speakers of other languages who learnt English as a second language. And learners are more likely to use spelling pronunciations (if they can read). So if the spelling pronunciation were more common in America, this would be a logical explanation. (Apparently that's not the case, though.) Of course, America lacks tradition in many other ways, too. For example, dialects. The differences between American dialects are minimal in comparison to traditional dialects in Britain even though Britain is, relatively, a tiny territory. So if Americans were more intolerant towards divergent pronunciations, this would be a logical explanation for that. (But I'm not saying that's the case, either.)

Pronunciation
This section is overly complicated and I think it could do with some improving.

The pronunciation with /ɔː/ (LOT-CLOTH split) is almost extinct in modern RP. Would anyone oppose removing it, or at the least not having it listed prominently as the second pronunciation?

Considering these are phonemic transcriptions, shouldn't it be consistent in using either /ən/ or /n̩/? I get the impression that /ən/ is the more common transcription, so it would make sense to settle on that one.

Does the /t/ version need to be labelled as a spelling pronunciation 4 times? I think it would be better to just have a note at the bottom of the Pronunciation section saying that the version with /t/ is a spelling pronunciation. That way it only needs to be said once.

Since every accent listed gives 2 pronunciations, one with /t/ and one without, it might be clearer to put the /t/ in brackets like this: /ˈɒf(t)ən/, although I do think brackets can also make a transcription look clunky, so I'm unsure. What does anyone else think?

Talk:Westen

A redirect from westen to Westen is desirable for German, but certainly not for Dutch. In Dutch westen has the same meaning as in German, but it is written with a small letter, except for some combinations like het Verre Westen (the Far West) or het wilde Westen (the Wild West). Compare with noorden (north), oosten (east) en zuiden (south).
 * Thanks for spotting it. I'll fix it. — Vildricianus 17:59, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Dutch
In the Dutch of the eastern parts of the Netherlands, like de Achterhoek or Twente, 'Westen' is used for the Randstad in general. It has a slight negative connotation, I feel. Also, the quotation now given under Dutch is rather the standard westen. Capitalized, Westen is often simply the same as the English 'the West', so a different quotation should capture that meaning better. 146.50.116.145 09:20, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary!

If you have edited Wikipedia, you probably already know some basics, but Wiktionary does have a few conventions of its own. Please take a moment to learn our basics before jumping in.

First, all articles should be in our standard format, even if they are not yet complete. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with it. You can use one of our pre-defined article templates by typing the name of a non-existent article into the search box and hitting 'Go'.

Notice that article titles are case-sensitive and are not capitalized unless, like proper nouns, they are ordinarily capitalized (Poland or January). Also, take a moment to familiarize yourself with our criteria for inclusion, since Wiktionary is not an encyclopedia. Read our Transwiki process if you plan to work on importing information from Wikipedia. Don't go looking for a Village pump – we have a Beer parlour.

Finally, you can link Wikipedia pages, including your user page, using pagename,, or. Please do not create redirects to Wikipedia pages, though. They don't work.

We hope you enjoy editing Wiktionary and being a Wiktionarian. — Vildricianus 18:28, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

Transwiki
Reminder: it is not GFDL compliant to manually transwiki items that way. Please simply tag them with   (or similar) and it will be imported, usually within 24 hours. --Connel MacKenzie 06:44, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

Westward Ho!
Hi. Thanks for looking at this. However, the phrases you have added — while totally worth mentioning in the etymology to explain the phrase — should not really have part-of-speech subentries of their own, since they are sum of parts. Look at, which covers this meaning. (To put it another way, if a town is called Brown Leaf, that still wouldn't justify the dictionary having an entry for "brown leaf: a leaf off a tree that is brown", since it's self-evident from the parts.) Capitalisation is also an issue, since the everyday phrase "westward ho" does not require the capitals or exclamation mark. So I am probably gonna cut this down a bit later and move your point into the etymology section instead. Equinox ◑ 10:44, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Equinox, thank you! You guys certainly know better than I and I accept and defer to whatever you decide. If this was Wikipedia we would have seperate pages for "Westward Ho!" and "Westward ho", so I don't know if that's what we'd do here or how its handled. If there's be just one page here, maybe the best name was would be "westward ho".

 * I suppose tho that "self evident" is in the eye of the beholder. I'm not entirely convinced that a reader who is going to this page will already know that "westward ho!" means either "I proffer to go west" or "let's go west" (rather than, say, "look to the west" or "get lost" or "let us die bravely" (from go west, to die) or something. Particularly ESL readers who have run across it. If it is self-evident to them, then why are they accessing this page. See for instance have at, where knowing the meaning of "have" and "at" is not sufficient, etc.

 * Unless they are looking for the English town, which I'd guess most aren't, since 1) it's pretty obscure compared to John Wayne movies and such I'd guess, and 2) this is a dictionary why are they even looking for towns here, and 3) if they are looking for a proper noun, there are a lot of other such uses, see Westward Ho at Wikipedia and its not clear that the English town trumps them all put together.

 * But definitely you guys know, I'm a Wikipedia guy and just here to make a landing place for people accessing Westward Ho on that site. So I definitely defer to your judgement, totally, and thank you for the interest. (BTW and FWIW I've added a citations page which didn't exist when you wrote this.) Herostratus (talk) 11:17, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Wikipedia is a bit of an omnium-gatherum whereas we do focus on what are traditionally "words" to be found in a dictionary. Admittedly we have got a lot more place names than any paper dictionary; but I bet you'd be surprised not to find Paris in a printed dictionary, whereas you (hopefully) would be surprised to find a large list of films etc. Those are encyclopaedia material. It seems you pre-date me on here by a couple of years but haven't used it much. So I'll drop the welcome-Wikipedia-user thing again in case you are curious about these differences. cheers, Equinox ◑ 12:16, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

KTV

From. Late 1980s Taiwanese Pseudo-English initialism from Japanese + TV.

This term is chiefly used in mainland China, Taiwan and Cambodia and Chinese speakers globally.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Tspier2. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Tspier2~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:09, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:boo-boo

I'd really like to know the origin of this term. Many dictionaries vary in their opinions of it. Some, for instance, state that its root is "Boo-Hoo" while Encarta stangely links it to "mid 50's - appearently 'boob'," which doesn't seem to make any sense. --216.45.139.148 01:30, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

 * The sense it makes depends on your dialect. In America, a boob is an imcompetent idiot, but in England it’s a blunder. The American word "boob" acquired the meaning of foolish mistake across the pond by 1934, and 20 years later the booboo was hatched. —Stephen 01:39, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

RFV discussion: February–March 2021
Rfv-sense Outside of my experience as a native English speaker --Geographyinitiative (talk) 21:04, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
 * cited. One quote from a book and two from Reddit. The book quote is a tiny bit ambiguous since Google Books only gives a limited preview of a little over two sentences, but I think it's pretty clear. Interestingly, when I searched for 'boo-booed', only a minority of results were for the defecation sense. More common were the senses "to make a mistake", and "to experience a minor injury", which we don't currently document. Colin M (talk) 01:50, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Well I have learned something today I guess. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 02:31, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Is this regional? --Geographyinitiative (talk) 02:32, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I believe that most of the time it's "made a boo-boo" or "did a boo-boo" rather than using it as a verb. The quotes are adults alluding to childish usage and are probably completely unrepresentative. Chuck Entz (talk) 03:43, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure, I mean it's going to be hard to get much representative data on the language of young children because their use of language is rarely recorded in durable media. Though here's an article I stumbled on that seems to quote a young child using verbal boo-boo:
 * "Another 3-year-old boy in foster care told Swanson that Bennett 'whipped' the alleged beating victim because he 'boo-booed' in his pants in the tree house."
 * Colin M (talk) 05:30, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Not cited: Reddit is not durably archived. J3133 (talk) 05:56, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * IMO we need to start looking at how to allow Internet content, even if not "durably archived", per recent BP discussion, while avoiding extreme ephemera or the sort of random made-up crap that plagues the likes of UD. Mihia (talk) 23:42, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * says who? How is it any different from quoting a newsgroup or mailing list? Colin M (talk) 03:01, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * If you have been here since June 2020 you should know we do not accept quotations from Reddit (and Tumblr, Twitter, etc.; e.g., see Talk:dorkface, Requests for verification/Non-English). J3133 (talk) 09:15, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I think that's kinda harsh - Colin M doesn't seem to've been continually active since joining, but even if they were, it's possible to do a quite a bit of editing here without needing to have much awareness of the rules as long as you're working within the right areas. A approach like yours isn't conducive to keeping Wiktionary thriving. Hazarasp (parlement · werkis) 10:49, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I did not mean it to be harsh—it was surprising—and I do not see how my message is “a [sic] approach”—also there are too many people here who do not comprehend Wiktionary’s practices—nor are you contributing to the thriving by begrumbling (to use a recently discussed term). J3133 (talk) 11:19, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * My view is that as long as contributors do good work and aren't disruptive, it doesn't matter if they aren't aware of every little aspect of the rules; Matthew 7:16 and all that. If we castigate people too much for not being aware of the rules, then we end up coming off as a cruel, forbidding bureaucracy - hardly what will attract new users. I do think me saying this is indirectly helping Wiktionary thrive: having "too many people who do not comprehend Wiktionary's practices" has resulted in Wiktionary growing year after year while other Wikimedia projects are stagnating. That stagnation, IMHO, is in part due to the aforementioned overly puritanical approach. Hazarasp (parlement · werkis) 03:05, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't see anything in WT:ATTEST that would preclude Reddit from being considered "durably archived"; citing Reddit seems entirely within the letter and the spirit of CFI. It seems like you're saying that there's a longstanding community consensus against quoting (post-usenet) social media even though it's not codified in policy, and I can accept that that seems to be mostly true, though your second link features impassioned support for quoting Twitter/Reddit, and this recent BP thread also demonstrates a wide spectrum of opinions in the community around quoting social media, so it hardly seems like a closed issue. Also, we apparently currently have 89 entries that cite or otherwise link to twitter. af is a nice example in that it quotes and links to a Tweet while also linking to an archive.org backup of the tweet, so that even if the author deletes it in the future, it will remain accessible. Colin M (talk) 22:20, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

 * I added two more book cites. – Einstein2 (talk) 15:16, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
