tonne

Etymology
From. .

Noun

 * 1)  A unit of mass equal to 1000 kilograms.

Usage notes
Even in British and Commonwealth use, the Americanism is sometimes employed where confusion might arise with the traditional English tons of 2000 or 2240 pounds. Alternatively, variant pronunciations of tonne have been promoted to help clarify its meaning. In particular, the British steel industry advocated for the pronunciation ("tunnie") during the 1970s and  (rhyming with "Don") is sometimes used for the same purpose.

Etymology 1
, from, itself from a  word cognate to 🇨🇬.

Noun

 * 1) tonne, metric ton
 * 2) ton

Etymology 2
Compare (🇨🇬).

Noun

 * 1)  a tonlet; a piece of medieval European armor of articulated lames or long flared metal skirt protecting the hips and thighs

Etymology
Compare 🇨🇬,. Compare also noponne, which features in the word for "ten". Two Proto-Siouan roots for "one" can be reconstructed: (apparently whence this word) and *wįyą, each one found in one branch and almost entirely missing from the other. (*nǫ is importantly also found in Quapaw hi nǫ xtį "once, one time", where -xtį is the morpheme denoting "_ times".)

Numeral

 * 1) one

Music theory
Thanks for adding the terms from music theory. I have an interest in music theory, but was unfamiliar with rhythmic gesture, and so was able to benefit immediately.

I've taken the liberty of editing rhythmic gesture and rhythmic unit better to match the general format of Wiktionary entries. In particular

 * I took out "A term is a" at the beginning of the definitions
 * I rearranged the formatting somewhat, in particular the related terms
 * I tried to rephrase the definitions, which were quoted from copyright material, while retaining the sense.

The third point is most important. The original definitions may or may not qualify as fair use, but it seems best not to take chances. I'm not an expert here, but I'm going by Copyrights.

In any case, don't worry too much about the fine points -- one of the great things about Wiki is if you miss something someone else will fix it. The most important concern is to continue to get good definitions into the Wiktionary. Thanks again for your efforts. -dmh 03:41, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Thanks. Apparently on automatic I copied those definitions almost verbatim, which I try not to do. Don't worry, I'll add many more definitions. Hyacinth 10:05, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Greek in Latin Letters?
I don't understand why you are adding Greek entries not using the Greek alphabet. — Hippietrail 01:59, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

 * We are going to need SOME way for people to look up Greek words using the Latin alphabet. RSvK 03:27, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

 * Why? Why not look them up using Greek letters? And why define them in the latin entries if it's just for looking them up? And why not even note that it's in a foreign alphabet? — Hippietrail 04:14, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

 * Because there are many people who don't know Greek letters. Or other alphabets and syllabaries.  The Wiktionary entries are useless unless there's some way for people to find the words.  This applies not just to Greek but all languages that use something other than Latin letters.

 * I agree with your other points--we may not want to define the words in Latin letters, and we certainly should note the language. I'll comment more on this in the Beer Parlour.  RSvK 14:24, 7 Aug 2004 (UTC)

kilo-

Etymology
From, irregularly derived from. The etymologically "correct" form would be chili- or , resulting in forms such as or ; but the French, when creating the prefix, had to avoid a possible (standard) pronunciation of chi as, too close to the vulgar verb.

Prefix

 * 1) In the International System of Units and other metric systems of units, multiplying the unit to which it is attached by 1,000. Symbol: k
 * 2)  Multiplying the unit to which it is attached by 210 (1024)

Usage notes

 * The usage of kilo as a 1024x multiplier in computing is considered obsolete in some groups, but others continue to use it this way. See kibi-.

Etymology

Prefix

Usage notes

 * The letter is not normally used in Catalan. Instead, Catalan orthography calls for using the  digraph to represent the  sound before an  or an . Therefor, when the metric system was introduced into Catalan, the prefix  was originally spelled . With the advent of  as a standard international abbreviation, usage of  has become not only acceptable, but also more common than the traditional spelling.

Prefix

 * 1)  Very large, great.
 * 2) In the International System of Units and other metric systems of units, multiplying the unit to which it is attached by one million (106.) SI Symbol: M.
 * 3)  Multiplying the unit to which it is attached by 220 (= 1,048,576, the binary number closest to a million). Computing symbol: Mi.

Appendix:Gothic strong declension

Description

 * The Gothic strong declension consists of all nouns with stems originally ending in a vowel, and thus comprises most of the main Proto-Indo-European declensions.
 * The a-stems correspond to original o-stems (the Ancient Greek and Latin second declension). They are divided into pure a-stems, ja-stems, and wa-stems.
 * The ō-stems correspond to original ā-stems (the Ancient Greek and Latin first declension). They are divided into pure ō-stems, jō-stems, and wō-stems.
 * The i-stems correspond to original i-stems (the Ancient Greek and Latin third declension with -i-/-ι-).
 * The u-stems correspond to original u-stems (the Ancient Greek third declension with -υ- and the Latin fourth declension).

Talk:obese

pronunciation in General American: Muke, are you sure /oʊ/ is right, not /ou/? Starting with "Oh good" and taking out all the consonents, the sound from /o/ to /ʊ/ as a glide just doesn't mesh. It sounds to me like the first part of "Oh what..." (if you don't aspirate the w, that is).

—Długosz

 * I would have thought the same, but apparently linguists don't see it the same way. See this page in Wikipedia for brief discussion and an external link on the subject. Ortonmc 22:50, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * I see. I do much the same with /ɔɪ/ for example.  My only nit is that phonetic transcriptions should reference a key as to what the symbols mean and what the conventions are.  At least a set of guide words putting the symbols into the reader's context.  —Długosz

 * I didn't invent the transcription; I use a version of American SAMPA (and a straight IPAfication of same). /ou/ is thickly accented (perhaps Spanish?); the offglide of the vowel is normally laxer than that.  For "oh good" sans consonants I'd expect /oʊʊ/, i.e. [oʊ̯ʊ], if not actually [oʊwʊ] (deliberate speech tends to avoid hiatus), which would sound like the start of "oh what" (or more accurately perhaps "oh wookie").  —Muke Tever 23:03, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Yes this is normal American IPA as well as Australian. British usually uses a different form which reflects the "RP" accent which is quite different. Actually the IPA that I know also uses a length mark on the "i" as well so it would be /oʊˈbiːs/. The "WEAE" however looks like a foreign word to me that I would spell "orbis" or "awbis"... — Hippietrail 23:50, 13 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Maybe we should exchange some sound clips. Where do you get an "r" ("orbis") in /oˈbis/?  I don't show an offglide because that will happen "naturally" for the speaker; I'm only showing /o/ as a canonocal symbol for the "oooooooh" sound.  Some speakers will continue vocalizing while opening the lips; some may make the /b/ sound without opening the lips farther to start with; some may sound something (to a more or less degree) when "stopping" the /o/.  The canonocal symbol avoides the dialect/accent effects and is not a narrow transcription (to use the IPA handbook terminology).  —Długosz

 * The 'r' is from non-rhotic (in this case Australian) speech. Unlike in rhotic General American, length is phonemic in non-rhotic speech, usually (but not always) from an original lost r.  Using /oː/ is narrow, though, marking a suprasegmental when it has nothing to contrast with.  (p.s.: canonical.) —Muke Tever 17:12, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * WEAE has its own problems. As for /iː/, it's likely that the length isn't significant—personally I know my /i/ is short in words like regain, but even a word like seat doesn't sound too different from sit read as Spanish.  Alternately, /i/ and /u/ may be used as there are no phonemic oppositions between /i/ and /iː/, or /u/ and /uː/. —Muke Tever 01:02, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * Some dictionaries go with just the sound difference /I/I/, /a/A/, /U/u/; some actually go just withe the length difference (at least i have read this in linguistics books) /i/i:/, /a/a:/, /u/u:/; but most go for both sound and length difference in English /I/i:/, /a/A:/, /U/u:/. Macquarie uses #1 but the OED uses #3 and that's my pref too. — Hippietrail 13 Apr 2004

 * I agree that the length isn't significant in English. I started leaving the mark out shortly after starting to transcribe a lot of IPA, because it was just clutter.  In my recient transciptions here, I've used it on occasion, not consistantly.  —Długosz

How Do I Pronounce "Obeses?"
It is pronounced like "oh-bee-sus" or as a homophone of "feces?" My friend uses the term and says it like "feces" - "oh-bee-sees." 4.241.6.142

Usage notes

 * The word has two common uses that are almost in opposition. One means roughly “clear; clearly true”, and serves to make a statement more decisive:
 * It was apparent that no one knew the answer. (=No one knew the answer, and it showed.)
 * The other is roughly “seeming; to all appearances”, and serves to make a statement less decisive:
 * The apparent source of the hubbub was a stray kitten. (=There was a stray kitten, and it seemed to be the source of the hubbub.)
 * The same ambivalence occurs with the derived adverb, which usually means “seemingly” but can also mean “clearly”, especially when it is modified by another adverb, such as.

Talk:urinate

Re Hippietrail's comment: I have no strong opinion about "go number one." On the one hand, "number one" is used on its own, but more like

 * Ms. Keane, I have to go.
 * Number one or number two?
 * Number one.

wherein it doesn't refer to urine, the substance, but rather indicates that the pupil needs to urinate as opposed to defecate. A child might refer to "a puddle of number one," perhaps, but that seems more a secondary sense.

Either way is fine with me -dmh 02:25, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

On the "have" vs "take" issue, Australia has been moving from "have" to "take", ie from British to American style through the 1990s. This applies to "bath" and "shower" as well as "piss", "shit", etc. Is a similar change underway in the UK at all or is "have" stable there? — Hippietrail 14:08, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Which reminds me, I used to needle an Australian colleague by asking "Have a wee what?" when he said he was going to "have a wee." What can I say? I'm easily amused.

As to have/take, I'll defer to a native, but it was certainly one of the differences I noticed when I lived in London in the late 90's, along with got/gotten and "do" in places I wouldn't have put it (I will do, it should do in the sense of it should do that, not in the sense of it should suffice) -dmh 16:05, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

There's a rumour that urinate is also a noun (like zincate or something). Possibly a mistake? I think the noun from uric acid would be a urate. Mglovesfun 22:50, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Talk:equal

Like unique, equal is technically an absolute -- either two things are equal or they aren't. This is particularly true of the mathematical sense.

Nonetheless, people tend to use it in comparative senses, with e.g., "more equal" meaning "more nearly equal." in the technical sense. How bothersome this is depends on how important it is for grammar to be prescriptive as opposed to descriptive.

It doesn't bother me greatly. -dmh 02:48, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * The rule against comparing absolutes is largely a specious one. The writers of the United States Constitution, for example, didn't have any problems with forming "a more perfect union".  Usually this is derided as weakening the strength of the absolutes, but the phenomenon doesn't arise from ambiguities in the absolutes, but in the modifiers being applied to them (e.g. more meaning "more nearly", or very meaning "truly").  —Muke Tever 03:38, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * I like that analysis. -dmh 03:40, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)

 * It's a rule of usage rather than a rule of grammar. Or it's prescriptive rather than descriptive. — Hippietrail 04:36, 14 Apr 2004 (UTC)
