Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Pbosque. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Pbosque~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 00:02, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Talk:quality

Various by Liulk

 * Although the "value" in "general good value" is intended to mean "value" as in "moral value" in a somewhat idealistic setting, the word has too many meanings, one of which easily confuses with price, as in "a deal of a good value", or "this discount makes the product a good value." I think it is clear that discounts have no to do with changing in standards. I'm deleting this entry. --Liulk 05:45, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I'd like to argue that "level of excellence" is the original intended meaning of "general good value" and should be uncountable. The example "this product is made in three qualities" is inappropriate, because it (1) makes a countable use of the word, and (2) refers to attributes (albeit unspecified) that distinguishes the product. This should be an example of the definition "a property or attribute that differentiates a thing or person," but we already have enough examples there, rather quality examples that enumerates the concrete qualities. --Liulk 06:16, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

 * "The qualities of an evildoer include meanness, hatefulness, a hunger for violence and a love for the spilling of blood." Is this example rated G? While it is nice to show that negative qualities can exist, I think we should think about something more benign. --Liulk 06:44, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The examples for archaic use of "quality" are perhaps lacking in emphasis of "high social position." I'm modifying these examples slightly to reflect the sense of social position. --Liulk 15:36, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Quality as what-ness

 * I recall having heard (hey, source needed) that the term qualitas was introduced/invented in Latin language by some Roman who wanted to translate a term used by a Greek philosopher. It derives from qua (what), so fundamentally the "what-ity" or "what-ness" (how it is, what it is, the kind, essence or nature of some object). Such a reference would help people understand the distinction qualitative/quantitative, as used in math and statistics. --LA2 00:26, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

Can any reader please advise me as to why the personal pronoun singular 'I' in English is capitalised when it is not in any other language? Is it because of printing difficulties with an isolated 'i' or does it have deeper significance? Gordon Stirrat

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Ppfk. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Ppfk~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Category:Spanish nouns with irregular gender

In Spanish, nouns ending in -a are mostly feminine and nouns ending in -o are mostly masculine. Nouns ending in -ción, -sis, -tad, -dad, -tud, and -umbre are always feminine but are not as common as -a endings. A few nouns have the opposite gender to what is implied by their ending, and those belong in this category.

Feminine singular nouns which begin with a stressed a vowel sound take the masculine definite article. Since these nouns are still feminine they do not belong in this category. The most common example is agua, which in the phrase ‘the cold water’ is written ‘el agua fría’ with a masculine article but a feminine adjective afterwards. But in plural, these words come back to using feminine articles, like “ ” (“the sewage”).
 * Note 1:

Quite a few nouns take neither ending but for the purposes of this category they are considered neither regular nor irregular but unpredictable.
 * Note 2:

Some words have irregular gender only in one homonym or one sense. Some others can be either gender without changing their ending. All of these are counted as irregular. This can also be the case when one word has difference senses because it is a shortening of a longer word. For instance, the masculine "disco" can refer to a throwing disc (such as the sport discus) but can also be a shortening of the feminine "discoteca", which is a discotheque.
 * Note 3:

Words ending in -ma that are derived from Greek rather than Latin (e.g., tema, telegrama, drama, but not forma) are almost always masculine. Thus, the gender of words ending in -ma is often predictable to English speakers, as many of these words also appear in English. However, somebody unfamiliar with the Greek words would not be able to predict which words ending in -ma are feminine and which are masculine; hence, they appear in this list.
 * Note 4:

Some other suffixes or endings have always or usually the same gender. This is the case for, , or. Although not recognizable nowadays as a compound, they have a meaning relation in the original Greek (planeta: 'the one that wanders'; cometa: 'the one with tail'; atleta: 'the one who competes'; however this same ending is used also in Romance for diminutives: casa > caseta, cruz > cruceta, vela > veleta).

Ec has removed the dated tag from the travel by ship sense (as usual with no comment). I don't find this sense tagged as dated in any online dictionary though Collins tags it rare, which is obviously a different thing but worth considering. Most large dictionaries I'm aware of have a rare tag. — Hippietrail 18:01, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
