Firefox

Etymology
Renamed from Firebird in 2004. The reasoning given for the name, explained as another name for the red panda (see ), was, “It's similar to Firebird. It's easy to remember. It sounds good. It's unique. We like it. And we weren't able to find any other project or company even remotely similar to a web browser that uses the same name.” The logo depicts a fox (hence the name is equivalent to ); its original designer, Jon Hicks, has stated, “A firefox is actually a cute red panda, but it didn’t really conjure up the right imagery. The only concept I had done that I felt happy with was inspired by seeing a Japanese brush painting of a fox”.

Proper noun

 * 1)  A free, open source, cross-platform, graphical web browser, developed by the Mozilla Foundation.

Usage notes
In the Usage section, is this note, "This term is preferred to black by some blacks," facetious?

RFD discussion
"SoP" entries. Sets a bad precedent for thousands of similar entries (ex. Korean American, Cuban American, Mexican American, and so on). --TBC  22:22, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * keep Submit for RfV just like anything else. There are usually important as preferred alternatives to usually non-SoP pejoratives. Usage notes alone on each subject would warrant their inclusion. I would suggest that we should have at least one attestable non-pejorative demonym (?) for every ethnic grouping for which we have a pejorative demonym. DCDuring TALK 22:41, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete American-born Chinese and British-born Chinese; keep Sicilian-American and African-American. I'll see if I can dredge up the classic Nelson Mandela quote using "African-American" where an idiot American reporter "corrected" him about the term and Mandela explained that the black people of Africa were not actually African-American. African-American in particular is not sum of parts, since it is not used to refer to Americans of North African descent or to white Americans of South African descent. --EncycloPetey 00:42, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I don't think that these ought to be treated en masse, as EP's views suggest. There may be very different merits for each. I often find that the effort of citing the entries leads to an adjustment of the definitions that clarifies the usage of the terms. DCDuring TALK 01:08, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * That logic doesn't really apply to the [Sicilian-American entry, but I can see why the African-American entry isn't completely SoP. If it's necessary, I'm for separating this request, as per EP's comments.--TBC  02:42, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Separate these, per above. Otherwise, keep African-American per EP's Maghreb comment, and delete all the rest unless a good argument is made for any.—msh210 ℠ 22:04, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Deleted. It was transwikied from Wikipedia when a short dictionary definition was wrote, but having it here is redundant. Anyone with enough encyclopedic information should simply write at Wikipedia.--Jusjih 03:31, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

Incorrect definition
I don't believe this definition is correct, as this term should not and is not used to refer to Australian Aborigines, Papuans, etc.:

" (nonstandard, US) Any black person. "

71.66.97.228 16:44, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

 * I agree with the above poster. This is insane. Nelson Mandela is not "African-American", Naomi Campbell is not "African-American", neither of them are American, so how can they be African-American? If people use the term African-American to mean any black person then they are using it wrongly, it's not a nonstandard definition, it's just a completely mistaken use of the term. I can't believe you will find any dictionary or reputable source that will support this definition.94.173.10.78 08:40, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

 * Yeah. People will sometimes used the term "African-American" incorrectly to refer to black people that aren't from the United States. This mistake should be mentioned in the usage notes, which I have added.

 * Y'all aren't really making sense. I mean, the original commenter's comment makes sense: (s)he claims that the term is not used this way. That claim is mistaken, but at least it's coherent. But the latter two commenters' comments are self-contradictory. People use the term this way, and it's nonstandard. You obviously accept that people use this way, and you obviously consider it nonstandard. So you're objecting to the entry containing information that you agree with, on the grounds that . . . you don't like the information? You find it too NPOV? What? —Ruakh TALK 04:03, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Talk:hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia

basis for inclusion
The basis for inclusion, as with many 'fun' words, might simply be because they are, and have been used for at least several decades, certainly in discussions such as these. There might reasonably be a category of words which are commonly or even typically misused, or not used according to their etymological or other supposed basis for existence. And perhaps it should be recognized that humans will play with anything, words of any kind included. Used capriciously or not, they can make you sound precocious, if not a little precious. Specious or not, bar bets demand that such words be included.-) It might rub some linguistic martinets the wrong way, but that's fun too. Perhaps it is obvious that there should be limits, but it beats the snew out of me, where they should be placed, and by whom.  (It's not like we will run out of electrons or hot air.)

I think that this is a very dumb phobia because no one is afraid of long words and if they are they are idiotic. —This.

I don't think anyone on here really has the degree to argue with a doctor. but I am sure, when anyone here gets there degree to be a doctor, they can argue that it is spelled wrong. until then, i wouldn't argue with doctors. because i am sure they know more about it than you do.

Usage of this word in the medical profession
Also, a sesquippedaliophobe can be used as a medical term for someone who has difficulty pronouncing long words, whether it's through a speech impediment or a throat infection or something. I'm afraid I don't have a citition, I only know this through experience.

Current Definition
The page currently says that it literally means "hippopotomus" and "monster" related fear of long words, where those prefixes are actually intensifiers meaning "large" in English. It seems I can't edit the definition directly, can someone else possibly clean this up?

Ugh
The sole purpose of this illegitimate word is to provide entertainment for a few. Unfortunately others see it and mistake it for a real word because it is long and confusing and they assume that they don't have the language skills to break down its components. I already have been bombarded by trivia questions from friends who think that people with PhDs created this because it is important and scientific. People enjoy these phobia words because they don't know Greek or Latin and the words sound so funny and unrelated to their English meanings. So this one surely fits the criteria of making it entertaining in that sense, but has the added bonus of being ironic. But its not really ironic, it's just been arbitrarily thrown together for a chuckle. In order for this word to be understood it must be explained by someone who is in on the joke, because it cannot be deciphered by its Greek and Latin roots.

Let's not underestimate the power of the internet when it comes to shaping language. If fanciful words such as this become widely accepted and enter online dictionaries, they will appear to have the same legitimacy as real words with components that convey the word's meaning or ones that have real etymological background. I understand that words often enter a language after being colloquialisms or being widely misused or misspelled or coined and not every word should be composed of Greek or Latin roots. But this is beyond all of that. It is only fun nonsense. If I wanted to convey that someone loved the color red I could call them a phodophile. Or I could be cute and call them a candyapplefiretruckraspberryphodophile. I could put my article up on Wiktionary and by tomorrow have people defending it because the English words I put in there act as "intensifiers." I could make it the longest word in the English language if I add enough "intensifiers."

So yeah, maybe put the word in a humor section. It would just be a shame if people using the internet as a reference tool ran into entries like this and there was nothing to indicate that it's just a "for fun" word.
 * You could put those words up here, but they would be deleted unless they had citations. If you could get them used in two national newspapers and printed books -- as this one has been -- then it would indeed be valid.  There are no criteria for saying that this is or is not "illegitimate".  Our job is not to make judgements of legitimacy, it is simply to record which words are being used by writers/speakers, and to explain what meaning they appear to have.  < class="latinx">Ƿidsiþ 17:42, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Delete or rewrite
While I personally believe that even a made up or phantasy word can have a valid place in both a language and a dictionary, I doubt that this is the case here. By all appearances, it is strictly a joke word, it has an extremely limited range of use, and it is too clumsy to be sensible addition to English. (I also doubt that it will typically be correctly spelled, possibly even whether there is a consensus spelling, even drawing on the etymology.)

In all, I would suggest that the entry is deleted or, failing that, rewritten to more clearly reflect the status and origins of the word. The etymology, in particular, should explicitly state that it is a made-up word---or provide proof that it is not.

Beware the difference between useful constructed words, like "television", and this monstrum.

(As a comical aside, can it really be justified to name a phobia with a name that it self could trigger that phobia? Psychiatrically speaking, this seems to be an exceedingly poor idea...) 94.220.243.113 18:10, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

 * Why should the article state that this is a made-up word? Surely readers should be aware that every word in every human language is a made-up word? Is the idea that this statement should be included in every wiktionary entry? Michealt 01:03, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia
hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia is at best a protologism. It should be removed from the dictionary. At most it belongs to Wikipedia, defined as 'Jocular and fictional phobia' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia#Jocular_and_fictional_phobias). A term made up as a joke on the first episode of Brainiac Series Five as one of Tickle's Teasers.

 * The rules here are WT:CFI. Since you're basically contesting that it is a real word used in real cases, it should have gone to Requests for verification. However, it's already passed RFD once, and Talk:hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia reveals that the issue has been discussed, so I see no reason to keep this open.--Prosfilaes 21:30, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Sorry to ask but...
I almost hate to ask, seeing as there appear to have been two prior attempts at deletion, but... given that one can suffer from hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia, would that individual not therefore be considered to be:

hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobi c  ? (which doesn't seem to appear in the wiktionary)

And for those big strong men & women who say it's obviously a fabrication as no one could actually be scared of long words, ask some 10-year-old boy heading off to an English vocabulary test if there's such a thing as fear of long words; some may just hate 'em, but you know that somewhere out there there's a kid that'll turn pale as a ghost when you tell him he's gonna have to memorize a 35-letter, 15-syllable word.

BTW: Given that hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia is not the fear hippopotami... What is? Cheers WP:Who R you?  06:01, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Presumes that every fear has a name. Large-scary-but-foot-and-a-half-long-word-fear is not a medical term, but has entered the language pretending to be one, which is a self-fulfilling prophecy. Hippophobia is fear of horses, so that isn't it. For you, I suggest maddiporunfast. For hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia, I suggest use of a larger font, and content indicating the fear of hippopotamuses that insist on the most lengthy alternative spellings of greek roots. Dovid (talk) 19:53, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

useless knowledge
I have removed the following unreferenced info from the entry; it was disputed and tagged :
 * In the book, Useless Knowledge, this enormous word was misinterpreted by the authors as two words, causing them to list the fear of long words as the following:
 * hippopotomonstroses
 * quippedaliophobia
 * These fragments appear to be quoted occasionally in other sources.

- -sche (discuss) 00:35, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

missing root
If you break down the word, at its base should be lexiphobia - "fear of words". But there is nothing in the word that means "words". Note that there is no basis to add a combining vowel after the prefix "sequi-". It should be hippopotomonstrosesquipedalilexiphobia. 24.139.51.14 13:23, 15 November 2017 (UTC)

Wrong Categorisation
This is included as the only entry in the Category:English 17-syllable words, which it obviously isn't. No idea how to fix it. Just wanted to point out that an edit may be required.

Unnecessary quip
"while the four-syllable phrase fear of long words is certainly worth considering." is more of a witty / funny joke, rather than an actual usage note. The clause should be deleted.

 * ✅ I don't agree that it was a joke but I think it was unnecessary in the usage notes; removed. Equinox ◑ 18:57, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

User:TrudoJo

one day some bloke decided that he would dedicate a portion of his life's precious time to do everything he could to perpetuate the word "randominity" into respectable dictionaries of the English language.

why? nobody really knows. some assume he was just sick of his spell check underlining the word every time he tried to use it. others note his disgust with using currently validated words of a similar nature, such as randomness.

what better way to perpetuate this word than to define it? so he set to work. the results of this en devour where not entirely satisfactory, but eventually he was able to say "good enough"

n. A state of excessive chaotic, creative and whimsical energy. pointless; obscure; irrelevant.

 * How to start a page
 * Our format guidelines
 * Criteria for inclusion
 * Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! —Dvortygirl 20:38, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Thanks! It appears that there's a Big Brother here in the Wiktionary, who at once notices if someone joins this 'world', or makes contributions. Aside from this message from you, for example, I made an addition into an entry, and just two minutes after it a person made additional editing to the same entry - the same formatting change that I had thought but wasn't able or didn't dare to do as I was a newcomer here. I got here because I needed the Wiktionary as a member of a foreign photografy forum on the internet. I'm not a person with special interest or education in languages. —Tiku 21:11, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
 * What you've witnessed is that we have a number of administrators and other experienced members watching the Recent Changes link you'll find on the left column of every page. We watch the changes so that we can welcome newcomers to the project, clean up each other's work, and occasionally, to show troublemakers the door.  It is very much a collaborative project.
 * You needn't have any special interest or training in languages to edit here. If you know some foreign words relating to photography, for instance, please add the translations to the English articles or create articles for them.  We welcome you to add or improve whatever you can.
 * Incidentally, the better way to get somebody's attention is to leave a note on their talk page. It will make their orange notification pop up. --Dvortygirl 19:02, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

es trans
I believe the current convention for translations is to include the full translation table, for instance:

 * French: mot

 * Spanish: palabra

This keeps the article formatting consistent and gives it a good start in case additional meanings are added. Dvortygirl 04:15, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Appendix talk:Glossary of architecture

Move from Wikipedia
This page has been proposed as a test of whether glossary pages should/could generally be better maintained in Wiktionary rather than Wikipedia. Because this is part of a proof of concept, the initial version was moved by cut-and-paste rather than through the transwiki process. I will clean up the contribution history at the end of the proof of concept. Thanks for your patience. Rossami 20:41, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Having just converted many of the words on this page to wiktionary links, I can already see that this will improve Wiktionary by providing an avenue to add a significant number of new definitions to the project (and some new meanings for the existing words). Rossami

This is the usual arrangement, but in the Propylaea at Athens there are two triglyphs over the central intercolumniation, in order to give increased width to the roadway, up which chariots and beasts of sacrifice ascended.

 * muqarna - A type of decorative corbel used in Islamic architecture that in some circumstances, resembles stalactites.

It is supposed to represent the piece of timber through which the wooden pegs were driven in order to hold the rafter in position, and it follows the sloping rake of the roof. In the Roman Doric order the mutule was horizontal, with sometimes a crowning fillet, so that it virtually fulfilled the purpose of the modillion in the Corinthian cornice.

O

 * oillets - Arrow slits in the walls of medieval fortifications, but more strictly applied to the round hole or circle with which the openings terminate. The same term is applied to the small circles inserted in the tracery-head of the windows of the Decorated and Perpendicular periods, sometimes varied with trefoils and quatrefoils.

 * parclose - Screen or railing used to enclose a chantry, tomb or chapel, in a church, and for the space thus enclosed.

 * peripteral - Term applied to a temple or other structure where the columns of the front portico are returned along its sides as wings at the distance of one or two intercolumniations from the walls of the naos or cella. Almost all the Greek temples were peripteral, whether Doric, Ionic, or Corinthian

 * planceer or planchier - Building element sometimes used in the same sense as a soffit, but more correctly applied to the soffit of the corona in a cornice.

 * poppy heads - Term given to the finials or other ornaments which terminate the tops of bench ends, either to pews or stalls. They are sometimes small human heads, sometimes richly carved images, knots of foliage or finials, and sometimes fleurs-de-lis simply cut out of the thickness of the bench end and chamfered. The term is probably derived from the French poupee doll or puppet used also in this sense, or from the flower, from a resemblance in shape.

 * portico[[Image:BO-portico.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Portico]] A series columns or arches in front of a building, generally as a covered walkway.

 * prick post - Old architectural name given sometimes to the queen posts of a roof, and sometimes to the filling in quarters in framing.

 * pseudo-peripteral - Temple in which the columns surrounding the naos have had walls built between them, so that they become engaged columns, as in the great temple at Agrigentum. In Roman temples, in order to increase the size of the celia, the columns on either side and at the rear became engaged columns, the portico only having isolated columns.

 * pycnostyle - Architectural term given by Vitruvius to the intercolumniation between the columns of a temple, when this was equal to 11/2 diameters.

R

 * rear vault - Vault of the internal hood of a doorway or window to which a splay has been given on the reveal, sometimes the vaulting surface is terminated by a small rib known as the scoinson rib, and a further development is given by angle shafts carrying this rib, known as scoinson shafts.

 * rose window - Circular window usually appears in religious architecture particularly during the Gothic period

S

 * sommer or summer - Girder or main "summer beam" of a floor: if supported on two storey posts and open below, also called a "bress" or "breast-summer". Often found at the centerline of the house to support one end of a joist, and to bear the weight of the structure above.

 * systyle - In the Classical orders, this describes columns rather thickly set, with an intercolumniation to which two diameters are assigned

T

 * tympanum - The semi-circular or triangular decorative wall surface over an entrance bounded by a lintel and arch

Transwiki
Use the   template on Wikipedia to list it for transwikiing. Do not simply copy stuff here; that creates an unpleasant mess. --Connel MacKenzie 23:22, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

 * What kind of mess? I changed the article links to point to Wikipedia; I used the edit summary; I added a template to the original article that points to the new Wiktionary article. --ZeroOne 23:35, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Well for one thing, such a copy is not honoring the GFDL. For another, no Wikipedians get to look it up in their log, to see that it has already been moved.  For another, it doesn't appear in the proper order for cleanup, here.  For another...

 * Oh, wait. I already said "it creates an unpleasant mess."  Thanks for assuming bad faith.  --Connel MacKenzie 01:59, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

 * Well for one thing, such a copy is not honoring the GFDL. The article was giving the "This page is over 100 kilobytes long. Please consider splitting it into multiple smaller articles." message, and that's what I did. I could've first separated it into "List of military slang" and then used the transwiki process, but it wouldn't have save any more editor information than it currently does (assuming that was what you meant with not honoring the GFDL).
 * For another, no Wikipedians get to look it up in their log, to see that it has already been moved. Ah, I know there are pages like Special:Logs, but I wasn't moving an entire article, just a part of one. The original article had some legitimate encyclopedic content, too, which wasn't, in my opinion, appropriate for moving here, or at least it needed to be saved in Wikipedia, too. You cannot move the cake and keep it too.
 * For another, it doesn't appear in the proper order for cleanup, here. That's because I already did the cleanup when copying the article. I redirected all the links.
 * And I never assume(d) bad faith and still don't! --ZeroOne 11:02, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

re: Wikisyntax
Actually, the results are identical in more than just the user experience. When you save a page with a piped link (such as anything), the software automatically converts it to the long version (anything . That's true on both projects.  Give it a try.  Rossami 15:03, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

Talk:阿

Alternate pronunciation
User:Mongol says that this character can also be pronounced as "ē." Is this correct? 24.93.190.134 04:45, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

 * ē is a valid Mandarin reading for this character. However, the words that use this reading tend to be a little more obscure than words with the ā reading.

A-cai 12:23, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

There's a type of mule hide glue called "ejiao," and I think a city called "Dong-e" that both use the character. Can we, thus, add e1 as an alternate pronunciation? 24.223.167.112 23:49, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Ah
Can this character be used in Chinese writing to approximate the English "ah," as in "Ah, I see!"? 24.93.190.134 05:38, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Talk:ketch

Disputing noun sense ''A hangman. See Jack Ketch.'' There apparently was a hangman of that name, but I don't think the word is in use for any hangman. Secondly, verb to catch. --Dmol 18:06, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

bahut

Etymology
, of unknown origin.

Noun

 * 1)  A portable coffer or chest with a rounded lid covered in leather, garnished with nails, once used for the transport of clothes or other personal luggage. It was the original portmanteau.
 * 2)  A dwarf-wall of plain masonry, carrying the roof of a cathedral or church and masked or hidden behind the balustrade.

Usage notes

 * Towards the end of the 17th century, the name fell into disuse and was replaced by coffer, which probably accounts for its misuse by the French romantic writers of the early 19th century. They applied it to almost any antique sideboard, cupboard or wardrobe, and its use became hopelessly confused.

Etymology
. Further origin unknown, most hypotheses being weak in one respect or another (cf. Further reading below). Bratchet suggests or, , from  (possibly related to 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬) +.

Compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬.
