I'm currently inactive here because I don't agree with the policy of including non-english words in an english dictionary. --Imran 12:36, 20 Dec 2003 (UTC)

Most of you probably recognize me from Wikipedia so I probably don't need to say much here :)

If I'm doing some edits and you want to talk to me I'm normally on the #wikipedia IRC channel.

I'll probably spend most of my time finding quotations as that's what I'm good at having done it for over a year for the OED Science fiction project (http://www.jessesword.com/SF/sf_citations.shtml) and my own research on gaming history (http://bits.bris.ac.uk/imran/games/).

quiz

Etymology
Attested since the 1780s, of origin.
 * The Century Dictionary suggests it was originally applied to a popular toy, from a dialectal variant of.
 * The Random House Dictionary suggests the original sense was "odd person" (circa 1780).
 * Others suggest the meaning "hoax" was original (1796), shifting to the meaning "interrogate" (1847) under the influence of question and inquisitive.
 * Some say without evidence it was invented by a late-18th-century Dublin theatre proprietor who bet he could add a new nonsense word to the English language; he had the word painted on walls all over the city, and the morning after, everyone was talking about it (The Pre-Victorian Drama in Dublin).
 * Others suggest it was originally quies (1847), Latin qui es? (who are you?), traditionally the first question in oral Latin exams. They suggest that it was first used as a noun from 1867, and the spelling quiz first recorded in 1886, but this is demonstrably incorrect.
 * A further derivation, assuming that the original sense is "good, ingenuous, harmless man, overly conventional, pedantic, rule-bound man, square; nerd; oddball, eccentric", is based on a column from 1785 which claims that the origin is a jocular translation of the Horace quotation vir bonus est quis as "the good man is a quiz" at Cambridge.

Noun

 * 1)  An odd, puzzling or absurd person or thing.
 * 2)  One who questions or interrogates; a prying person.

 * 4)  A school examination of less importance, or of greater brevity, than others given in the same course.
 * 1)  One who questions or interrogates; a prying person.

Why the v spelling? "qu" seems to be the usual convention (particularly when using that wonder of modern typography, lowercase) even when making the u-vowel/v-consonant distinction. --Brion 19:41 Dec 16, 2002 (UTC)

In Latin there is no "U", v was used instead. -fonzy

 * That's not really correct; in classical spelling, "u" and "v" were one and the same letter. The capital form (used in inscriptions) was that of our modern capital "V", while the handwritten form tended more towards the curvy form of our modern "U". Somehow in recent centuries the latin script ended up standardized on a mix of capital and handwritten forms, with capitals used for emphasis and initials and the lowercase letters used most of the time. "U" and "v", like "i" and "j", were additionally refactored from simple glyph variants into separate letters -- "v" and "j" began to be used exclusively as consonants and "u" and "i" as vowels. This was carried into modern spelling of Latin as well; modern printed Latin texts use a mix of upper and lowercase letters, modern punctuation, and usually separate "v" and "u" by consonant/vowel. "I" and "j" were commonly separated as well for a while, but this seems to have fallen out of favor, so you'll often find "i" for both vowel and consonant. I've never seen "qv" used in lowercase though, only "qu"; if you feel the need to flaunt conventional spelling and not distinguish the consonantal and vocalic "V/u", use "V" in capital and "u" in lowercase. --Brion

Well I heard that there was never a "u" in Latin and that latin had 25 letters. Also i have seen it spelt Aqvila on Roman artifacts. -fonzy

 * I presume you mean 23 letters, not 25: ABCDEFGHIKLMNOPQRSTVXYZ. "V" and "u" are the *same* letter, one of those 23. In modern spelling of Latin the pointy and curvy glyph forms are almost always distinguished based on whether serving the consonantal or vocalic role, and "qu" always as "qu".

 * Well, how about we compare with existing dictionaries and other modern printed Latin texts?

Talk:quiz

There are several different words "quiz" which have different etymologies which is where the problem could come from --Imran 21:08 Dec 16, 2002 (UTC)

I think the so-called unofficial 'kwis' in the Dutch translation doesn't belong here. Since the changed spelling of 1995 'kwis' is wrong; it is not Dutch. This spelling is not mentioned in the van Dale dictionary, nor in the "Groene Boekje". If we start doing this, we might as well include every possible spelling mistake. Maybe (but I still have my doubts) it could be mentioned in an article called List of common misspellings (Dutch). D.D. 21:43 Dec 16, 2002 (UTC)

Internet surveys
Now often used on the Internet for ego surveys ("What colour suits your personality?" etc.), e.g. on the site Quizilla (but not only there). This is distinct from the traditional kind of quiz that has right and wrong answers and involves skill. 86.131.89.40 10:52, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Etymology
Tréguer, Pascal's one (a Latinate joke) sounds convincing.

Talk:eagle

Apollo 11
Is the Apollo 11 one really a dictionary definition, is it used much outside of the phrase "eagle has landed" ? --Imran

 * I'm going to move this sense to a separate proper-noun entry, although it probably belongs in Wikipedia rather than Wiktionary.

Hebrew
I gave the technical Hebrew term for eagle (ayit). There is another, very common word, nesher, which appears often in the Bible and is slangily used as a large bird of prey in modern Hebrew. In biblical Hebrew, it appears in the phrase "on eagles' wings," problem is, the translation is a mistake and nesher literally means "vulture" (ayit also appears in the Bible but less frequently). Should I add nesher here, even though it is technically incorrect, since it is commonly used?

Well put nesher in the Vulture page, and craet a new page עיט saying hebrew for eagle then say complications etc. -fonzy

Hebrew and Arabic scripts do not use capitals. BTW, the Belarussian term is a little odd since it uses a Polish diacretic in a Latin alphabet, and Belarussian uses a Cyrillic script. On Thursday, I will ask a friend at work about the Belarussian spelling (his field is Belarussian history), but if you come up with something before then, cool. Danny

Are you shore its Cryllic, you may be right its just the Soviet Union made some of its countries like Turkmenistan (Turkmen language) and Azerbajani (Azeri) to have a cryllic alpabet when before they had a form of latin alphabet, after teh collapse of the USSR, they brought back a latin alphabet. -fonzu

Yup, it's Cyrillic. Danny

The second definition (coin) is presumably used because of a picture of the eagle (animal, definition 1). Shouldn't this be noted somehow? Such as
 * Old gold coin with a face value of $10.00 used in the United States. Named due to picture of eagle (see def. 1).

Of course this issue pertains to words other than eagle, and has perhaps been discussed elsewhere? Fagan

Translations
I take it all the translations that contain a single word only translate "eagle" in the sense of "bird". They should probably be marked with (1) until translations of the other senses are entered. -- Paul G 14:34, 2 Jan 2004 (UTC)

My (small) Greek dictionary only has αετός - is χρυσαετός a genuine alternative, or a particular type of eagle? Could it be a Katharevousa/Demotic variant or the Ancient Greek word? -- Paul G 14:42, 2 Jan 2004 (UTC)

 * χρυσαετός means literally "gold-eagle". It exists both in Modern and Ancient Greek; in Ancient Greek it seems to only mean "golden eagle"... I can't really make out whether it means "eagle" in general in the modern language, as my dictionary doesn't explain it either.  —Muke Tever 16:57, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

-

For Esperanto someone put in:
 * agl|aglo]]

Even if this didn't look pluglike for another wiki dictionary project, this isn't wiktionary practice anyway—we don't link the French and Polish in translations to their pages on fr.wiktionary and pl.wiktionary either. This is the English Wiktionary... However, this kind of thing may be addable as a reference on aglo, etc. —Muke Tever 16:57, 22 Apr 2004 (UTC)

If it's only used in compounds should it have a "noun" entry as well as a hanzi entry? — hippietrail (talk) 12:47, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
 * As a noun this sense is somewhat dated in Mandarin but it's still a noun in dated and regional Mandarin, for consistency with dialects there should be a noun entry. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:18, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
 * If it's dated does it get a dated tag? Are you talking about dialects in the way China uses them to cover varieties that are not mutually comprehensible? Or only about dialects of Mandarin? — hippietrail (talk) 10:04, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * It should get a dated tag, yes. No need for the sarcasm. I'm talking about both written varieties if Chinese, which are almost identical to Mandarin and the topolects, you are referring to. How do you separate nouns, which are used attributively or as compounds? --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 10:38, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Labels
I think we need to do something about dialectal/regional, etc. + Wu, Cantonese, etc. labels, so that they get categorised. I'm not sure how. Also, I think we need to keep adding Min, Min Dong, etc. to labels, categories.

Similar to labels["Min Nan"] = { plain_categories = {"Min Nan Chinese"} } in Module:labels/data. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:06, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

 * I added a bunch of dialectal and regional labels there. It's probably more than what we need now. :) Wyang (talk) 04:25, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I was hoping there is a trick to make regional/dialectal to work like "chiefly", e.g. chiefly|Cantonese because someone may rewrite the module to use it differently. Potentially each language may want "dialectal LANGUAGE" label. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:34, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I've changed to ...dialectal|_|Wu... as suggested on Module talk:labels. I'll remove new labels. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:05, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I have replied there. Wyang (talk) 05:16, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Usage notes
Is it necessary to say it is not used in Modern Standard Chinese explicitly? The etymology already mentions it twice, and the context tag, and the synonym section... Wyang (talk) 05:38, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I just felt like, no strong opinion about it. We had a bit of bickering above with Hippietrail whether in Mandarin it is a component or a noun. You can never be 100% sure. It's categorised as a Mandarin noun, has a Noun label, not component. I have similar doubts when a topolect has a reading for a term but not necessarily the same sense, usage and PoS. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:46, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Component isn't really a valid designation for PoS under the current framework. It can only be a noun under the system here - a noun that is archaic. If we say that it is not used in Mandarin again in the notes, why not say the same for Cantonese, Min Nan, Hakka, and most Wu dialects? -
 * "Not used as a separate word in modern standard Chinese, only as a component."
 * "Not used as a separate word in Cantonese, only as a component."
 * "Not used as a separate word in Min Nan, only as a component."
 * "Not used as a separate word in Hakka, only as a component."

 * or

 * "Not used as a separate word in modern standard Chinese, Cantonese, Min Nan, Hakka, Jin and most Wu dialects, only as a component. Only used in Min Dong and some Wu dialects."

 * which is basically the idea that the etymology and context tags are trying to convey. Wyang (talk) 06:00, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

 * I've taken it out :) --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:24, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

 * I've recently created Template:zh-no-solo for Chinese characters with senses that are not used as a standalone character in modern standard Chinese but may be preserved in compounds or idiomatic expressions. This template may be useful. KevinUp (talk) 05:59, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Usage notes
Romanian features the double negative. Nu is stressed within a normal sentence, but in a double negative construction is left unstressed in favour of the other negative component.

In speech—even in moderately formal contexts—nu is elided before verbs beginning with a, most notably the past perfect auxiliary.

Likewise, nu triggers prodelision before words (of any part of speech) beginning with î. Elision and prodelision are orthographically marked with a hyphen where no line break may occur.

In these cases, the syllable following the n of nu takes the sentence stress, which is stronger than the primary stress of the negated word.

酉

Derived characters

 * Appendix:Chinese radical/酉

Glyph origin
— an ancient vase used in making and storing fermented millet alcoholic drink. See.

Etymology

 * "wine; wine vessel"
 * From (STEDT); cognate with.

 * "tenth earthly branch"
 * suggests that this branch denoted the "waxing half-moon", "construed as a vessel filling with liquid". Noting 's observation that 's OC pronunciation started with *r-, Smith reconstructs *r-juʔ which would later lost its archaic pre-initial *r-, the same phonological split seen in pairs like ~  > yóu vs.  > liú. Smith further supposes that *r-juʔ, is an endoactive derivative of *r-ju "flow" by the suffix *-ʔ, meaning "the flowing stage".

 * As for 's association with the chicken, proposes that Chinese and Thai forms derived from Viet-Muong *rə̆k ~ *ruk, truncated from 🇨🇬, yet  thinks this correspondence unlikely. Possibly,  was arbitrarily associated with the chicken, just like  with the dragon.

 * “unitary”
 * From.

Definitions

 * 1) an alcoholic drink vessel
 * 2) tenth of twelve earthly branches (十二支)
 * 3) rooster (鷄) of Chinese zodiac
 * 4) the period from 17:00 to 19:00
 * 5)  unitary

Usage notes
Although it remains associated with alcoholic drink, the character alone is mostly used as the tenth earthly branch in the Chinese cyclical calendar.

Kanji

 * 1) "sake" radical (さけづぐり)
 * 2) "bird of the zodiac" radical (ひよみのとり, とりへん)
 * 3) rooster (tenth sign of the Chinese zodiac)
