Talk:corn

corns
Are sweet corn, sugar corn, and green corn synonyms or something slightly different? Is Indian corn obsolete or just archaic? I'm marking it obs. until somebody knows better. — Hippietrail 15:20, 14 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Indian corn is neither obsolete or archaic. It is in common contemporary usage. Googling "indian corn" returned 431,000 hits. User:LeoS Feb 10, 2007

 * In Great Britain sweetcorn is used as "corn" is in the USA. i.e. The fruits of maize when served (usually boiled) as a dish or the maize plants themselves. It is "sweet" in comparison to wheat, oats, etc.

Corn as transitive verb
In a work of fiction, I read the sentence: "They set to work corning the powder." The sense of this was that the (gun)powder had become a solid mass due to wetting, and the workers were manually pounding it or grinding it to pellets of a uniform size.
 * What I do when I find such things is to add them to a citations page. You can see how they work at Category:Citations. Also pose a question on Tea room. When somebody comes up with a sense they can use the citation you found in the article. — Hippietrail 17:41, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

Repeat definitions?
Isn't the definition, "maize," the same as the definition, "(U.S.) A cultivated grain originating in the Americas that grows on thick leafy stalks in large grain clusters called 'ears'. Some varieties are eaten fresh as a vegetable and other varieties are dried and used as a grain"? Theshibboleth 20:23, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
 * To me those are definitely the same. Perhaps somebody was confusing differing usage and differing senses. — Hippietrail 03:48, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Corn (bunion)
This meaning of the word is missing
 * It's a callus. A bunion is different, its is a swelling of a joint on a toe. Jonathan Webley 12:35, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Non-IE/UK English
Given that previous writers on this page established that in the US, "corn" means maize and in the UK and Ireland, "corn" means grain, these searches survey the use of "corn" by Google in the other countries with at least one million native English speakers or at least ten million total English speakers, including Trinidad and Tobago, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Spain, Turkey, Poland, and China (People's Republic of) by doing the regular search in English, then appending "&meta=cr%3Dcountry" and a capitalized ttLD code to end of the old URL and then going to the new URL. Based on the short preview given in each search, the results employing "sweet corn" or "corn (sweet)" are excluded as ambiguous and those about foot calluses are excluded as irrelevant but each are included in the count to maintain NPOV. Similarly sub-results and image results are excluded to avoid doubling single sources but neither are included in the count. :)--Thecurran 08:02, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Conclusion
Especially when the US is added to this list, it encompasses not only most of the English speakers of the world, native or not, but most of the people of the world. The data refutes that the meaning of "corn" in English is more often grain than maize. It highlights that outside of the Ireland and the UK, there are some compound terms that employ the archaic grain meaning of "corn" like "sweet corn", "seed corn", and "guinea corn" but that on its own, "corn" rarely means grain as opposed to maize. :)--Thecurran 16:07, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Great job. It's hard to be definitive about such a thing, but your evidence is the best we have. We usually use google news for current regional English differences, because the resulting citations are deemed durably archived and usable as citations. The archive also goes back to the 19th century, at least for the US and Australia. DCDuring TALK 10:55, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
 * And yet someone removed maize and left the generic grain definition. I'm not sure why you had to go to so much trouble, either. The UK's own site favors maize to grain – albeit to such an extent principally owing to American-related links, but the British links are peculiar in their own right. Why on earth is "corn exchange" a synonym for "theater"? LlywelynII 04:41, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Probably because a "commodity exchange" sounds like a big important deal, and a "corn exchange" because it’s a place where large volumes of popcorn are bought and consumed. —Stephen (Talk) 05:13, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I learnt English in school in Germany. To me personally corn would mean cereal, not maize. But nevermind. What I wanted to say is that there is a US country song by Luke Bryan that goes: Rain makes corn, corn makes whiskey. Now I'm wondering. Whiskey isn't made from maize, is it? Or does he really mean maize here? (The only way we use maize in Germany is in salads, so I don't even know what you can make of it. But whiskey??)
 * Another thing that came to my mind just now. I don't know how most English-speaking Germans would understand the word "corn" today. But at least 65 years ago they thought of it as "grain" or "cereal". There's this story that after WWII, the Germans asked the Americans for "corn". So they sent them maize, which amazed the Germans because they couldn't use it... I mean they did use it of course, but maize bread is still something that old people mention as one of the things they had to endure during the war times...

 * Corn whiskey (also called white lightning) is an American liquor made from a mash that is comprised of at least 80% maize. Americans call maize corn (we use the word maize only for antique varietals such as blue corn that are grown and used by Native Americans), and in American English, corn means maize, not cereal or grain. The British are the ones who call cereal/grain corn.
 * Rye whiskey, on the other hand, is made from a mash that is at least 51% rye. (The other ingredients of the rye whiskey mash are usually maize and malted barley.)
 * When I lived in Germany (in the 1960s and ’70s), Germans did not eat maize on salads or in other other way. Maize was considered to be only for livestock (pigs, etc.). Human beings, according to Germans of that era, did not eat maize. When I lived in Gartow (on the Elbe River), my landlord used to buy maize from the farmers around Gartow and cook it for the American soldiers. Germans were very surprised that anyone would choose to eat maize. —Stephen (Talk) 02:54, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Thanks! (I was the one who asked that question a long time ago...) Yes. As I said, maize is still not very common in Germany (among human beings). We do sometimes eat it in salads now, but that's all. It's considered a vegetable, not a form of corn/grain.

Not sure what "not IE" is supposed to mean.
Entry currently mentions "not IE," but I have no idea what that means. Could someone who knows what it's supposed to mean add a pipelink or spell it out in full if printing costs could still be retained within reasonable limits? Ideally, the entry will be updated. --Bxj 11:40, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

 * Probably "non-Insular English". —Stephen (Talk) 05:24, 3 November 2011 (UTC)

Australian usage
Having grown up and lived in Sydney and Melbourne, I've never heard "corn" being used in everyday life in the UK meaning, only in the US one. Very rarely hear the word "maize" either. You go to Coles or Woolworths, it's called corn. You buy a recipe book, its called corn. To whoever found an Australian government website containing the word "maize", that proves very little - bureaucrats are infamous for unusual word usages which don't reflect that of the majority of the population - they probably chose the word "maize" deliberately to avoid potential ambiguity or confusion or misinterpretation in government regulations. It doesn't mean that the average person calls it maize - most Australians call it corn. 60.225.114.230 12:49, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
 * For maize in salads or "on the cob" I have heard English people say "corn" as well. Don't know if that's a new thing. I suppose they still wouldn't refer to a "maize field" as a "corn field" because that would be more ambiguous. 90.186.72.91 04:26, 17 October 2022 (UTC)

Countable or not?
(Etymology 1, Noun): A plural is given, but all three subsenses claims it is uncountable. When is the plural used? \Mike (talk) 05:25, 17 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Whenever corn is not spoken of as an undifferentiated mass, it could be used is the plural. When speaking of different varieties of corn, it is sometimes natural to speak of the many corns that are available. Very few mass nouns cannot be used this way or in some other countable way. For example, consider invention:
 * As an abstract process it is non-count: "Necessity is the mother of invention.
 * An instance/event of the process is count: "Were there multiple inventions of fire."
 * A result of an abstract process: "Edison is credited with hundreds of inventions.

 * Sometimes the countability only occurs in specialized contexts. beef: is almost exclusively found among those discussing the later, more industrialized stages of cattle ranching, transport, and slaughter. HTH. DCDuring TALK 09:44, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

"specifically the main such plant grown in a given region"
This clause is wrong, because in Australia "corn" has the same meaning as the US, and yet the maize corn is not the main cereal crop grown in Australia, wheat is far more prevalent. So by this definition, "corn" must mean "wheat" in Australia, but it doesn't.

 * Hmm, but (as the definition shows) it does differ by country sometimes. Perhaps we should replace "specifically" in the definition with "especially", or "sometimes". What do you think? Equinox ◑ 23:19, 24 May 2014 (UTC)

 * That would be better. Best would be to split off the regional senses, IMO, perhaps making them subsenses. The current sense 1 is doubly wrong when it refers to America; maize is not (as the definition explicitly claims) the main cereal there, wheat is, and wheat is not (as the definition might imply) called "corn" there — as sense 2 goes on the clarify! Separate matter: how is sense 3 used? Specifically, I'm wondering how "a grain or seed" (emphasis mine) can be uncountable. - -sche (discuss) 00:17, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

 * I think the uncountable gloss on sense 3 is wrong. Look up "corns of barley" in Google Books. Equinox ◑ 00:22, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

 * Hmm, now this is interesting and potentially elucidating: [//www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/corn Merriam-Webster] says the use of "corn" to denote "the grain of a cereal grass that is the primary crop of a region (as wheat in Britain and oats in Scotland and Ireland)" is a British English thing, i.e. that rather than the people of each country calling their principle grain "corn", it is the Brits who call each country's principle grain "corn", while the people of other countries designate specific grains "corn" without regard to how common they are. - -sche (discuss) 01:06, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

 * What this discussion is missing is that while *some* British English speakers use "corn" to denote any cereal or the "principle" grain, many (perhaps even a majority) use the word "corn" only and specifically to talk about maize. I would never use it to talk about wheat.

Corns on animals
Don’t ‘Etymology 1 senses 7 and 8’ of ‘corn’ belong under ‘Etymology 2’? Surely, when an identical word describes similar growths that people and animals get on their bodies, the medical and veterinary senses must be equivalent and the etymology the same? Overlordnat1 (talk) 14:30, 17 September 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree. Go for it. DCDuring (talk) 15:09, 17 September 2021 (UTC)

RFV discussion: September 2021
Rfv-sense "The main cereal plant grown for its grain in a given region, such as oats in parts of Scotland and Ireland, and wheat or barley in England and Wales.". The sources given don't suggest such an extremely specific definition. The fifth one expressly indicates that "corn" can include wheat, maize, and barley -- in other words, not the seeds of a specific plant, but a class of plants. I think it is entirely synonymous with and .__Gamren (talk) 14:03, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Such a sense is supported by the OED (“The seed of the cereal or farinaceous plants as a produce of agriculture; grain”), and a usage note explains that if the word is unqualified its meaning depends on the place to which it is applied. So in much of England it is used to refer to wheat, in North Britain and Ireland to oats, and in the US to maize. A 1767 quotation states: “Rice is the only corn that grows in the island.” — SGconlaw (talk) 17:07, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It seems likely that ‘corn’ can or could refer to a regions main or staple cereal crop specifically, as ‘corn’ meaning ‘maize’ came about from a shortening of ‘Indian Corn’ (due to it being the staple grain of the ‘Red Indians’ or Amerindians). It’s the only grain they grew though, as I understand it, which complicates things slightly. Overlordnat1 (talk) 18:11, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * But the 1767 quotation doesn't support that sense, either. It implies that, in the speaker's mind, there exist other types of corn than rice. In other words, rice is a proper subset of corn.__Gamren (talk) 20:26, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It does seem a bit too limiting a definition, perhaps it should be changed with something like “A cereal plant … especially the main one in a given region”. Perhaps the closest example I can find is the one on page 17 of this book (https://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/downloads/nc580n017), ‘barley is the corn of the West’. The book clearly states that wheat, barley and oats are grown in Oregon but that barley is the main crop to feed sheep. On the other hand the use of the definite article here effects the meaning, one wouldn’t say ‘man’ means ‘main person’ because people say ‘he’s the man’. Also one link on GoogleBooks discusses Gen 41:5, where the large number of ears on the corn (7) are interpreted as being indicative of spelt, apparently the only cereal grown in Egypt at the time. (Most of these 186 passages probably refer to the same crop: https://www.biblegateway.com/quicksearch/?quicksearch=corn&version=KJV and in many cases ‘corn’ is not preceded by ‘the’). Overlordnat1 (talk) 09:22, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It is to be expected that the range of species a common name may refer to depends on the when and where of an utterance. When Shakespeare lets queen Gertrude portray Hamlet as crying “a Rat, a Rat”, the Bard and his audience would have imagined a black rat, but when we hear of a New York City rat taking pizza home on the subway, we imagine a brown rat. I feel it is sufficient to note the locale-dependence of the range covered by somewhat generic common names; specifying such ranges as if they are (sub)senses is bound to prove problematic. The Usage notes may be a better place than the definition line.  --Lambiam 11:09, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Almost all of the short English vernacular names behave as Lambian suggests. It would be nice to have some entries that contain models of how to present the probable geographic coverage of the various definitions. I have taken different approaches, strongly influenced by the entry as it stood before any substantive edits by me. There is a lot of guesswork required to determine which definition a given use of a term like corn may apply to a given citation. Examples of the reasoning can be found in some of 's etymologies and also in entries trying to determine what organism might be referred to by words in the Bible or Shakespeare and similar well-studied works. In some cases derived terms can show the range of possible coverage. It often helps to show that referent organisms may be in different taxonomic families or orders (even classes, phyla, or kingdoms). DCDuring (talk) 16:26, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It is probably obscure what refers to in my etymologies, I myself do not remember, unless they are even greater than I already realized.

 * Maybe the general way I gloss, whether in definition lines or in t of etymologies. Indeed I try to expose tendencies of terms which aren’t of defined meaning. is a term used by Bedouins for saline, mostly chenopodiaceous and zygophyllaceous plants, man can’t do it anything better or worse with that definition except tediously presenting a list of plants allegedly denoted by the word dictionary users would not suffer to read anyway. Then I am known to highlight in plant names whether a whole genus is denoted or only some species of the exact list of which I do not want to give, or even only the genus or family of which all the taxa under it are named specifically, e.g.  is “the whole Corchorus and any species but mostly Corchorus olitorius”; it is traditionally unnatural to have such glosses but technically it’s closer to the truth. On  I inform that there are only three species of which only two are in Arabic-speaking areas. On, which I almost identified myself before finding a unique blog post where the vernacular terms stood side by side with a taxonomical one, I even found it apposite to speak about the migration of two bird subspecies: Ha, the exact animal is even different depending on whether it is summer or winter! On  I gave the usual candidates but retract all with the usage note that the without particular equipment one does not see a difference anyway.

 * So there are limits of what can be shown by pure usage of words as distinguished from mentions and knowledge of the environment, as with this bird many a people post about hunting it (→ Twitter) but no one writes the taxon. On those grasses like it would be messy to absurd to quote separately. Trying to bare the exact meaning of  is somewhat like this absurdity, only to a smaller degree. It varies whether a thing belongs to one definition line or already to a whole extra section. One can surely define the contested sense of  in a long and annoying though correct way. Too bad there aren’t usage notes to put under particular definition lines, like, and it is must be a whole section. Fay Freak (talk) 17:02, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * It's rarely a good idea to make statements about English plant names from usage in the King James Version. The KJV was translating unfamiliar Biblical Hebrew and Koine Greek terms without the botanical and linguistic data we have today. They may have known what spelt was, but they probably didn't have any reason to associate (or  or ) in Genesis 41:5 with any particular species. In fact, no species was mentioned- the Hebrew and the translations all were referring to the ears, not the type of grain. "Corn" is used to translate a number of different words in a number of contexts, and cases likr the above where the fact that there was grain is inferred from the context. The KJV was mostly referring to grain in general and the translators wouldn't have known what species. About the only specific grain referred to was barley, which had a distinct name in all the languages involved. Chuck Entz (talk) 17:39, 6 September 2021 (UTC)
 * So it may not be a ‘faithful’ translation then?! Regardless, it’s valid to analyse how ‘corn’ is used in English when considering the definition of the word whether it’s a translation or not. I think with the revised wording we should consider this to have effectively passed RFV. The fact that ‘barley is the corn of the West’ appears in a book published in 1940 in Oregon suggests that it should perhaps be labelled ‘chiefly Britain’ rather than ‘Britain’ but that’s a minor issue. Overlordnat1 (talk) 01:09, 8 September 2021 (UTC)

Etymology
From, from , from , from. Equivalent to.

Noun

 * 2)  power (of multiplication)
 * 3)  power type of angel, ranking above archangel

Usage notes

 * Although it is a cognate to the English word "might", macht typically refers to rulership or effective power rather than physical capabilities or positive qualities. For example: in English, the phrase "a mighty king" will likely evoke the image of an effective, virtuous or strong ruler. In Dutch, however, the etymologically equivalent phrase "een machtige koning" can simply refer to a king with many resources under his control. Historically, macht referred to one's power over their body and mind. See also Kraft vs. Macht.

wurde

Etymology
Formed by analogy with the plural, from (singular ). The verbs of this class normally generalise the singular vowel; as in etc. we should thus expect. These forms are attested, but the plural usually retained the u-form and this -u- tended to be generalised to the singular. A possible reason is the a-forms’ phonetic similarity to. The final -e in is unetymological; it goes back to a development in Early Modern German where -e was added to strong past tenses (after the subjunctive and/or by hypercorrection; hence archaic  for ). It may have survived here by analogy with the fellow auxiliary.

Usage notes

 * Until the earlier 20th century, was seen as a correct, but less formal byform of . The latter has since become archaic, however.

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Wiktionary Tutorial
 * Community Portal
 * Entry layout explained
 * How to edit a page
 * How to start a page
 * 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! -- [ Connel MacKenzie] 18:23, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

Belated welcoming...
Now that is funny. You've been here a day longer than I have! I assure you I was not a sysop the day before I started contributing here.

The practice as of late, has been to not welcome people until they've been spotted making one or two contributions. Apparently, that is better than it was a year ago. :-)

At any rate, I hope you choose to make a few more contributions this next year. And, welcome anyway! -- [ Connel MacKenzie] 01:48, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

A Portuguese contributor? Excellent! Although I understand your obvious choice of maintinaing your own wikt:, I think I'll just throw out the fact that we have about 540 entries in Category: Check translations that could use verification from native speakers. ''I myself am painfully monolingual. (When I visited the French Wiktionnaire, I created a user page for myself with intentional gramatical errors and a link back to en:, so that no one would doubt that I was not French. A few minutes later, a Wiktionnaire sysop joined our group on Wiktionary irc and asked me what the deal with the stinky cheese and goats was all about.)''  Do forgive me, if I'm hesitant to start poking around on your pt.wikt:. :-) -- [ Connel MacKenzie] 02:24, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Poking around on pt.wikt:
Hello,

Congratulations on breaking 7,000 entries. Looks like your wikt: is picking up speed? I notice you still use the older front-page Wiktionarysister logos. There is some talk over on commons about standardizing those to a single newer format. I'm pretty sure they could use help translating their warning message to Portuguese. -- [ Connel MacKenzie] 02:39, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Well, if you look on pt.wiktionary.org's pagia principal, you'll see at the bottom the eight logos in question. If you look here at Main Page on en., they are different. Neither ours nor yours have captions; they are just logos. Anyway, some commons admins hope to phase out the non-perfect copies of the logos to help improve server performance. So the "incorrect" images are now being replaced with a BIG RED "X" and on the commons' page, there is a multilingual template explaining how to complain (politely.)

The template is at commons:Template:Deleted_Duplicate.

Hola E-Roxo,

I learned Italian when I was 17-19, then Spanish when I was 20. It was extremely hard to keep them apart. I could either speak Spanish more or less properly or make myself understood in Italian. It would not have been a good idea to muddy the waters even more by learning another language that was very similar, so I decided to go to Greece and try to pick up some Greek. Of course that was even harder, but at least I didn't get confused by what I already knew. I'm glad I did it that way, but sometimes I would like to know Portuguese and be able to easily travel to Brazil. If, one day, I do travel to Brazil, I will probably go for several months and then I will, of course, try to start speaking and learn Brazilian Portuguese. It shouldn't be too hard to do so. Of course it will push away what I know of Italian even more and it might influence how I speak Spanish. The languages I would still like to learn are Russian, because I like the way it sounds and Arabic, because I meet quite a few Arabic speaking people around here and it would be interesting to be able to understand what they say. There is also the linguistic aspect of course... and curiosity; how would it be to write from right to left? What do all these symbols mean and how do they interrelate? Anyway, I don't know if I will ever get around to actually learning these languages. For the moment I don't have time for doing it and I don't think this will change in the next few years. I hope I can still go on and use this nick even when there are people around here who know more (about) languages than I do. Polyglot 22:38, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Talk:avian influenza

Intuitively, this should get its own entry. For one thing, I would like to define "bird flu" as a synonym for it. Further, I'm not sure the definition I give is correct, or will remain correct. If a strain makes the jump from birds to humans (or another species), is it still avian? That is, does the avian part mean "from birds (whatever its prevalence elsewhere)" or "confined (mainly) to birds"? For an answer, we can try to determine whether the recently reconstructed 1918 Spanish flu virus is considered avian. It's generally agreed to have originated in birds. I suspect we'll get a bit of disagreement on that point. To me, this is further evidence of idiomaticity. -dmh 20:29, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

I believe this should be uncapitalized, at least as the main entry. E.g., the BBC article I cited for H5N1 has "Although she had not had any known direct contact with infected poultry, she had been caring for her 21-year-old brother who was thought to have caught bird flu." A very quick spot check on google supports this: Bird Flu generaly only appears capitalized in titles. -dmh 20:36, 14 October 2005 (UTC) HI!
