Etymology
. This word in the meaning of “penis” was not attested until 1806 (however,  used it in his texts from 1669 and 1677), and was only an urban word. For this reason, Sławski considered the word to be a borrowing from 🇨🇬.

Talk:fictional character

This entry was the basis of a long and important discussion in Requests for Deletion. That can now be found at Wiktionary talk:Idioms. In the strict sense that an idomatic expression is more than the sum of its parts there is no justification for retaining this entry; it is nothing more than a charcter from fiction. My own initial instinct was to support deletion. Our own debate, however, has helped to define what we mean by an idiom. There are also separate links from specific fictional characters to this page which will also help to focus the debates about just how many and which of these characters have a place in Wiktionary. These points have helped to tip the scale in favour of keeping the entry. Eclecticology 19:54, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:human being

Discussion moved from RfD
Since it seems to be the way that we're going: no more than the sum of its parts: a being that is human. —Muke Tever 06:13, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep - online AHD, Collins, Encarta, and Merrian-Webster all find it to be more than the sum of its parts and so do I. Our policy is already to include any word found in any (reliable) print dictionary. — Hippietrail 16:12, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * The word human, at least formally, is only an adjective. The noun is human being. Some people do use human as a noun, but I consider that casual at best. Personally, I would never use human as a noun. —Stephen 12:36, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * At least the online AHD and Merriam-Webster disagree. The latter even has human being cross-reference to human. — Hippietrail 16:12, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * On the contrary, AHD, Collins, Encarta, and Merriam-Webster find it worthy of an entry, not [necessarily] more than the sum of its parts. AHD4 and M-W.com, at least, define  human being with the part human all by itself.  This shows that these (reliable) print dictionaries do not have any such nonsense about "being more than the sum of their parts" in their criteria for inclusion, and I don't think any such nonsense belongs in Wiktionary either.  The print dictionaries include it because it is a set phrase, not because of being an idiom; it's true there are many they don't include, but that is mainly because 1) paper has its limits (but Wiki is not paper) and 2) their goal is not to write that kind of dictionary (but ours is to define all terms in all languages). —Muke Tever 17:26, 12 October 2005 (UTC)

 * My take on idiomaticity is that it's sufficient but not necessary. That is, if I can tell for sure that a phrase is idiomatic, it's definitely in.  If not, there is still no great harm in letting it in.  We seem to have no problem with regular inflections, which are not idiomatic, so why would we have a problem with set phrases?  In such cases, we're saving someone the trouble of looking up "human" and "being" separately.  Not a big deal, but not harmful.  In other words, I'm much more concerned with keeping out unattested material than keeping out non-idiomatic material.  If I see blarg defined as "thirty minutes before sunset", that's misleading (unless I've really missed something :-).  If I see "orange fence" defined as "a fence that is orange", it's hard to see the harm. -dmh 14:56, 14 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Keep, keep, keep. This is a set phrase, as Muke says, and can be found in any dictionary worthy of the name, so there is no reason for it not to be in Wiktionary. — Paul G 10:16, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

 * It really bugs me that the best argument that can be given for set phrases is that other dictionaries have them. If anything that should be taken as indication that we, collectively, haven't got a clue what constitutes a set phrase and what doesn't. Could we please establish some sort of criteria ourselves? Davilla 12:39, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

 * It seems to me that everyone agrees human being should be included but disagrees as to why or what the policy is. Does that mean we can remove the rfd tag from the article and move this discussion to a policy section? Millie 15:20, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Keep - why would you delete it? - Παρατηρητής 11:46, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

human being
[ human being and some translations thereof ]

SoP? Internoob 23:38, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Haha, even I wouldn't call SoP on human being. I'd say it's quite a "fossilised form"; you wouldn't talk about an "animal being" or a "mammal[ian] being" unless you were making some strange philosophical point, so I think these two words in this sense are indivisible. I have not looked at the translations, however. Equinox ◑ 23:46, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Agreed. I corrected the Czech translation. --Duncan 15:54, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

 * English not SoP, per Equinox. Hebrew translation is currently okay. Are you concerned about any languages in particular, Internoob?—msh210 ℠  16:45, 25 February 2009 (UTC) 15:36, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

 * It does not seem to me to be quite old enough (1751 per MWOnline, 1750 or earlier per me) to be fossilised. I'd rather that such a term be reserved for 500-year-old terms. In this particular case the individual words have their separate meanings in the multi-word term. I could not find before 1800 any use of "human" as a noun. So "being" was used as a synonym for "person" ("perfon").
 * So why do we want to include it? What test of idiomaticity does it meet? If it does not meet any such current test and we wish to keep it, there may be a gap in out criteria for inclusion.
 * I think it meets our tests for inclusion because "a living human being" does not mean exactly the same thing as "a living, human being" and still less "a human living being". An applicable test would seem to be the "In between test". Perhaps others at WT:IDIOM also apply. DCDuring TALK 18:19, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

 * Would tend to argue against successful application of the in between test?—msh210  ℠  21:34, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

 * I don't know. I guess there are at least three versions of such a test (as applied to two parts of a putative single entry:
 * Ultra-strong version: Nothing can ever appear between the two parts in question (any sense).
 * Strong version: Nothing can ever appear between the two parts without changing the sense.
 * Weak version: conjunctions can introduce other parallel terms in between without changing the sense.
 * I think human being: meets the "strong" in-between test above. I think most of the instances in the search would be of the adjective use of human: + "being", from which the "person" sense of the combined term has derived. A fallback position would be the weak version of the test. DCDuring TALK 21:58, 25 February 2009 (UTC)

 * I had in mind the translations that translate litterally as 'human being', like French, Dutch and Portuguese, for example. Internoob 02:51, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

 * I'm going to be more specific.
 * lidská bytost
 * menselijk wezen
 * être humain
 * essere umano
 * ser humano (Spanish and Portuguese)
 * Internoob 03:08, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

 * I can't say anything about the other translations, but what Equinox and DCDuring said about human being applies to lidská bytost as well. --Duncan 15:36, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

 * And être humain. It's just the set phrase for this. When you hear human being, you don't (I think) parse it mentally as "oh, this is a being, and it's a being that happens to be human". It's practically a semantic unit. P.S. As I googled the French one, I coincidentally hit upon this: "Ce que l'on entend par la locution être humain me paraît également différent de être qui est humain." (What one understands by the phrase human being seems different to me from being that is human.) Equinox ◑ 20:40, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

 * I think that gives us examples of when "être qui est humain" is used synonymously with "être humain". I will agree that it seems like a set phrase, but one that means nothing more or less than the sum of its parts. Is this sufficient grounds for inclusion? Internoob 22:48, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Strong keep, you can't say that a human being is just a human that's being, and être humain is a very specific phrase as well, I'd strongly ask that it be kept. Mglovesfun 02:34, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

 * Although I personally feel that human being should have an entry, our CFI (and WT:SURVIVOR) do not seem to warrant such inclusion. Delete.—msh210 ℠  15:36, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Party seems to have died out. Kept. DAVilla 03:00, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

RFV discussion: April–May 2022
Rfv-sense "Another, extinct member of the genus Homo." It's a plausible way to use the term human being, but it would be best to have the three cites for this one because it is definitely not the mainstream meaning- human beings are homo sapiens as far as I have ever known and as far as I have ever used "human being" myself. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 11:23, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Cited, although maybe the second sense should be "Any member of the genus Homo, including extinct species." because people who use it in this way don't mean to exclude Homo sapiens. The current definition is okay though.
 * There's also an wordplay meaning of human being, as in : "I want to be a human being, not a human doing". I'm split on whether to include it since on the one hand it relies on the idiomatic meaning, but on the other hand, unlike the main meaning, it's using being as an adjectival participle rather than a noun. 70.172.194.25 22:13, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Good point, I've changed the wording. That's an issue that's come up in a fair few entries, like how prostitute formerly had "male prostitute" as a sense; some people think that if a term means either "specifically X" or "either X or Y", they should just put "X" and "Y" as definitions, but...that's not how to do it... - -sche (discuss) 19:51, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

Usage notes

 * In senses 1 and 2, the object typically refers to an abstraction: a problem, or a situation, or the like.
 * In senses 3 and 4, the object may refer to any sort of collection — a collection of physical objects, or of people, or of abstractions. In sense 4, there is very often a from phrase, characterizing the remainder of the collection.
 * In sense 5, the object refers to a person or group of people.
 * In all senses, the object may appear before or after the particle out. If the object is particularly short or lexically "light" — as with all personal pronouns — it will usually appear before the particle ("sort it out"), and if it is particularly long or lexically "heavy" — as with a noun phrase with a modifier phrase attached — it will usually appear after it ("sort out the patients with scoliosis"). Intermediate-length objects may appear either before or after ("sort the wheat out", "sort out the wheat").
 * In British usage, in sense of “to fix a problem”, often used without “out”, as in “I’ll get that sorted.”

welsch
Somebody tagged this as "to be checked". I've never heard anybody use that word, especially not in that meaning. I consider it to be a clearly outdated term meaning "Italian or French", analogue to windisch, wendisch "West Slavic (or simply anything from or in the East)" and teutsch "German".

I'm a native speaker (northern standard) – does that mean I could have simply deleted it without first discussing it here? Dustsucker 14:59, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Yes, but preferably with the correct word substituted. —Stephen 14:58, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Spanish
I understand that there is a word in spanish very similar "foreino" which is used to refer to buses going outside of city limits. As to the source of the word, I believe it comes from latin foreign - for meaning outside of - reign meaning kingdom Dwarf Kirlston 06:16, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

foreign
As noun, "foreigner". The (non-durably archived) citation shows the kind of "fused-head" construction that is possible in principle for every sense of every English adjective. To keep such things would mean adding a noun sense for every sense of every adjective not derived from a noun. DCDuring TALK 22:58, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Move to rfv, if it exists, keep it. Otherwise, don't. --Mglovesfun (talk) 08:43, 23 September 2011 (UTC)
 * And yet we have a noun sense at poor:. (Isn't foreign as a noun often a deliberately facetious parody of ignorance? "I 'ate them foreigns.") Equinox ◑ 20:39, 28 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I would RFV except I can already see that Google Books shows the noun in genuine use. DAVilla 06:31, 13 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Kept as no consensus. — Ungoliant (Falai) 19:24, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

foreign
Sense: "Belonging to a different culture."
 * Eating with chopsticks was a foreign concept to him.

The usex shows a use that I would gloss as "alien, strange". And not everything "belonging to a different culture" is foreign. For example, the various Native American cultures are not called "foreign" by more recent arrivals, except sometimes in the sense of "alien, strange", nor is the culture of the American pilgrims, or of Mormons, etc. This just seems like a sloppy definition to me. DCDuring TALK 07:24, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I would say someone was trying to express a "pertaining to an outside country" sense, but then I noticed we already have it as sense 2. Maybe this should be considered an RFV issue. Either way delete unless someone shows citations which cannot be subsumed under other senses. As for the usage example, I would say it just means "unfamiliar, unknown" here, which may or may not be conflated with "alien, strange". — Keφr 09:11, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * A few citations for languages described as foreign in their own lands:
 * "While he felt that academically gifted students did well with Welsh, mandatory foreign language simply gave weak students a chance to feel like a failure."
 * "Drawing on New Zealand examples, she states that a foreign language – in this case Maori – within a predominantly anglophone context functions as something which "threatens meaning and subject formation, including the idea of a coherent national identity"
 * "As Pfeiffer noted on the integration of Navajo children to the US schooling system: Navajo children are taught in a foreign language: they are taught concepts which are foreign, they are taught values that are foreign, they are taught lifestyles which are foreign, and they are taught by human models which are foreign."
 * Also some useful hits at, , etc. I suppose you could argue that the Welsh, Maori and Navajo are nations, even if they're not states - perhaps merge this into the "relating to a different nation" sense. Smurrayinchester (talk) 09:40, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
 * To me at least some of that kind of use seems to be playing on the two senses of foreign, but I am open to citations, rewording, etc. And we have foreign language as an entry, not that the single definition there is adequate as currently worded. It should be made to earn its keep by freeing us of the need to specifically cover the cases above. (If not, we should delete it.) DCDuring TALK 04:22, 19 November 2014 (UTC)

Pronunciation
, re diff: is it cot-caught merger? (WP says that merger affects /ɔ/ and /ɒ/ and that the father-bother merger is the one affecting /ɑ/, but we give the cot-caught merged pronunciation of words like sought as /sɑt/, so...) I've occasionally seen it mislabelled as "NYC" or "East Coast", but it doesn't actually seem to be geographically restricted in that way. (See also Tea_room/2022/April... but IMO if it's not cot-caught it's probably best without a label, just like you entered it, rather than misrepresented as a New York thing as in some entries; New York accent says "/ɔ/ [and] /ɔr/ [...] are kept strongly distinct from /ɑ/".) - -sche (discuss) 23:12, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

 * has it too, labelled 'East Coast' Leasnam (talk) 23:17, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I merge cot-caught, and father-bother are also the same for me; but I don't say /ɑ/ in origin, foreign, orange - those are clear 'o's, long 'o's as in 'storage'. Seems the pronunciation like /ɑ/ is making them short 'o's. I'm no accent expert, but it looks to me like shortening of the vowel. I wonder, do the same speakers also pronounce 'porridge' like /ˈpɑɹɪd͡ʒ/ ? Leasnam (talk) 23:20, 22 September 2022 (UTC)

"Stay out of our sight!"
In what sense would or could the term "sight" be in a phrase like "Stay out of our sight"? --Apisite (talk) 22:08, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

RFD discussion: July 2022
(Verb) sight I do not see a difference between these two senses. The lookout up in the crow’s nest cannot get sight of land unless they register it visually, and when they register visually that there is land ahead, they did sight land. Or is there some intended distinction that I didn’t get? (I’m also inclined to make that which was sighted the subject of the intransitive verb register; the uses above feel ungrammatical to me.) --Lambiam 11:40, 11 July 2022 (UTC)

Radio
I've added a citation that shows copy as in copy that is used sometimes as a noun. 81.68.255.36 20:01, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

sense 2 : of inferior quality
Is this necessary of inferior quality? I mean, we are used to see copy of rich brand products to a lower quality, but is this a generality?

A not famous brand imitating another not famous brand but with a better material/technology (imitating because they figured out that it is an opportunity or that the product/the design is a good idea), it is not a copy? A famous French movie picturing that is called "La vérité si je mens".

 * I agree. I've added "sometimes" as a quick fix. This might actually need merging with sense 1 somehow. Equinox ◑ 19:54, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

 * I disagree. Any form of copying is wrong in the absolute. For example, someone is wrong telling God that they are going to copy God, as there is only one God.

Talk:super-

Untitled
From wikipedia:

Prefix
First known as a prefix, meaning "above", "beyond", "on top", "besides", super- has a long history in the English language and has since evolved into a useful adjective and expletive as well.

According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the use of super- evolved as follows:
 * A certain number of important Latin compounds, chiefly verbs, belong to the classical period, but the great majority are of later date, and many are recorded first from Christian writing. As a living prefix in English super- first appears about the middle of the 15th c.; it became frequent in Elizabethan times, and the 17th c. it was very widely used. In more recent times, it has been extensively introduced into the nomenclature of chemistry and other sciences as a correlation to sub-.

Words with "super" as a prefix include:

 * superscript
 * supersonic
 * supercentenarian

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 Javawriter. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Javawriter~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 23:51, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Category talk:Esperanto adverbs

Many of the words in this category are not adverbs, but are 'particles' - that is, uninflected words which don't fit neatly into any coherent part of speech. It's somewhat common to use the term 'adverb' as a catch-all for grammatical leftovers, but it would be more precise to limit it to words which modify verbs. I'm moving the non-adverbs to their appropriate parts of speech. - kwami 08:14, 9 January 2006
 * Okay, I added for, and removed ecx, jen, jes, mem, ne, nur to the 'Esperanto particles' category. Someone might want to consider adding frue here. Several of the remaining adverbs belong to more than one part of speech: pli is also a pronoun, ambaux is also a pronoun and an adjective, and nun, hodiaux, hieraux, morgaux are also nouns. The 'conjunctions' ankoraux and kvazaux are adverbs as well, but I don't know if there'd be an objection to double listing them.

 * Oh, and of course all the correlatives ending in -e, -am, -el, -al. - kwami

The Arsacid/Early Middle Persian consonant č when occurring after a vowel went through a lenition process resulting in z by the end of Sassanid time, because of this it is highly unlikely this word is a loanword from Arabic as what would be borrowed exactly.

 * As an American, "canceled" looks only like a spelling error to me. Could this be another typo propogated by an error in Microsoft Word's spell checker, version 1.0?  --Connel MacKenzie T C 06:47, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I was always taught "canceled" was the correct (U.S.) spelling, and an exception to the rule of doubling the consonant before the -ed. Thankfully it seems that version is now becoming archaic, and the rule-conforming version is becoming standard. I am switching to "cancelled". 69.171.140.70 16:53, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

The US English spelling only has one 'l.' I don't think that Google should be the sole mediator of this debate. What it comes down to is that "canceled" is correct in the US, and "cancelled" is the later form that has only recently been accepted. I know these following sources are not enough to warrant a change in this article and the debate is hotly contested on the internet, but it should at least be considered.

Sources: Dictionary.com, MSDN Blog --Third 06:30, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

 * By what source do you call it an American spelling? The one upset British poster at the end of the blog saying so?  I've lived in America all my long life, and I don't recall ever having seen "canceled" in writing.  --Connel MacKenzie T C 06:45, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

 * I concur wholeheartedly. I have been correcting spelling for 50 years.  As irregular as English is, there are rules, and not doubling the "l" would be an exception to the rule that I don't see listed in rules of style.  A Brit speller, it would seem, should not be the difinitive source for American usage.

crase

Etymology
From.

Noun

 * 1)  crasis,  in Ancient Greek

Noun

 * 1) crasis:
 * 2) assimilation of sounds of two identical vowels, throughout the evolution process of a language
 * 3)  name given to the process of the contraction of  +, that is, a merge (assimilation) of the Portuguese preposition  + the article
 * 4)  grave accent

Usage notes

 * An example of diachronic crasis is the 🇨🇬 word, which has become, with time, the word . Compare.
 * The article a has feminine gender in Portuguese. Accordingly, both it and the contraction à are used only before feminine words. The translation of à into English, hence, is to the. It is a common mistake for people to write "a" when they should write "à" and vice-versa.
