Usage notes

 * The terms and averse are sometimes confused, though their meanings are somewhat different. Adverse most often refers to things, denoting something that is in opposition to someone's interests — something one might refer to as an  or  — (adverse winds; an attitude adverse to our ideals). Averse usually refers to people, and implies one has a distaste, disinclination, or  toward something (a leader averse to war; an investor averse to risk taking). Averse is most often used with "to" in a construction like "I am averse to…". Adverse shows up less often in this type of construction, describing a person instead of a thing, and should carry a meaning of "actively opposed to" rather than "has an aversion to".
 * Averse from is an older form, corresponding to the modern averse to.

— Hippietrail 01:29, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

A common mistake among newbies is to spell it newby.

The page should also mention prononciation : is it like new bye or new bee ?

Tea room discussion
Why specifically internet slang? Come to that, why slang at all? When I started high school (more years ago than I care to think) I was called a newbie. This word has too long a history to be slang, surely. And certainly not internet slang. -- Algrif 17:35, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * I agree it did not originate on the Internet; it is older.  Maybe check Usenet for a pre-Internet use there? --Una Smith 05:40, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe would be more accurate.  Widsith 17:39, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
 * This is an interesting test of the meaning of colloquial. There are 2400 raw hits in Scholar for "newbie", many of them are mentions, many are in discussions of gaming, usenet, etc. But some concern "newbie" nurses and newcomers or "rookies" in other social settings. Is this merely "informal"? DCDuring TALK 17:56, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Is the adjective sense just an attributive use of the noun? (I'm paranoid when it comes to incomparable adjectives that mean "of or like a [PAGENAME]".)—msh210 ℠ 17:41, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

 * I'd say this supposed adj is best interrupted as an attributive noun, since it only works when placed directly before the noun it modifies. We might say "This is a newbie editor" but not "This editor is newbie." -- WikiPedant 17:50, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Is the list of abbreviations commonly used in dictionaries useful? Wiktionary has its own list (m, f, n, c and no others) and the style of the entries in this list is specific to a particular dictionary (abbreviations of word categories being capitalised and having points ("."), where other dictionaries use lower case, or an initial capital only, and no points).

Furthermore, why are these abbreviations given Wiktionary entries when they are specific only to the terminology of a dictionary rather than part of the general English language? Wouldn't it be better simply to put the abbreviations and their full forms in a table instead, without any Wiktionary links? — Paul G 07:03, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Thank you for your efforts in working to bring in more of the 1913 Webster material. It's a huge job but their work can be very good as a base to build from. Would it be too much to ask that when you do this you import the whole article. The etymologies and the quotations are a very important part of the research that went into that dictionary. Thank you. See how I have added back that material at avert. Eclecticology 08:02, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

 * Also, please add at the top of these entries, to let everyone know that the definitions are probably outdated, quaint, nearly unreadable, incomplete and otherwise less than useful.  OK, that's a little harsh.  Nonetheless, it seems very useful to mark Webster-derived material as such.  I'm not greatly concerned about the actual content of template:webster, so long as it's used where needed. -dmh 20:45, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

 * Will do -- I didn't realize there was such a template. Curtis 20:49, 10 Nov 2004

 * First, thanks very much for taking that on board.

 * The template is very recent. I created it in the heat of the moment, then softened the tone somewhat.  I note that you are doing quite a bit more than simply mechanically importing Webster 1913.  I don't see any need to include the template in something that has been modernized, or is just a pointer from a derived form to the base (e.g. baalist).  In other words, please feel free to use your judgement.  I had the template in mind mostly for entries like slight, which are blatantly old and dusty, not having been manually checked at all. -dmh 05:52, 11 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hey there Curtis,

If you are 'watching' your words, you may notice that I'm having a lot of fun editing your pages.

Just simple edits like posting the actual spelling under its usage and bolding each use of the word on the page. Just simple stuff. You could do it yourself and save some time. (no response necessary, but if you do, please use User talk:HiFlyer so I don't have to monitor your page, here. Have fun, bud! And I hope you edit "my" entries as well. Everybody else does ;-)) --HiFlyer 00:36, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Usage notes
The plural form "heavens" or "the heavens" has been typical in reference to the impersonal sky since the 17th century. The plural form became less common in reference to the abode of God, the gods, or the blessed departed as the medieval view of celestial spheres was disproven; it is still commonly used, however, in discussing theologies such as Buddhism which retain numerous heavens or levels of heaven.

The term is capitalized as Heavens or "the Heavens" when (infrequently) used as a proper name.

yeux

Etymology
From, , from , plural form of. A regular outcome of, the accusative plural of (the source of œil). Mildred Pope explains its phonetic development as becoming *[ˈɔːʎos] > *[ˈweʎts] > *[weuts] via regular sound changes, followed by a regular dissimilation of [weu] to [jeu] (see for example > *[lweu] >,  > *[dʒweu] >  > ). The resulting [jeuts] then becomes modern [jø].

Old and Middle French present many variant forms of this plural, including, from Godefroy's Dictionnaire du Moyen Français: /,, /, //, ,.

Pronunciation

 * les yeux:
 * les yeux:

Noun

 * , eyes

 * ...and what I believe is a synonym. — Paul G 13:29, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

RFV discussion: September 2023–January 2024
Rfv-sense - verb. This is only ever used as an interjection in my experience. Sometimes the interjection is elongated with a cuz or similar, but I have never heard someone say something like "he was talking to the hand because my face didn't care". - TheDaveRoss  16:54, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Are all full sentences interjections, or just imperative and interrogative sentences? DCDuring (talk) 19:51, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Indeed I don't think this can be called interjection: the "elongated" use demonstrates that it's still being used and understood as a verb phrase. A better solution would be an "imperative" or "usually imperative" label (there are a few examples of non-imperative use, e.g. describing an argument with a threat of violence, "Against one of them, they could talk to the hand, but if they managed to immobilize me, game over" ). —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 19:54, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Usage notes

 * The usage to refer to the British meatball delicacy (sense 5) is not widely known outside the United Kingdom and Ireland, due to the prevalence of the usage as a homophobic slur (sense 8) in other regions, it is likely to be misconstrued as hate speech by those unaware of it.   In contexts where the word can be interpreted as an allusion to homosexuals, this sense can be considered offensive even in the United Kingdom and Ireland, despite the homophobic slur not being in widespread use there.
