IPA
I'm no expert on American-style IPA because I've never found a dictionary that uses it but this doesn't seem right to me at all.

[]

 * 1) Dquare brackets are used for narrow transcriptions which are not what dictionaries use. Dictionaries use /slashes/
 * 2) In words such as this some dictionaries allow a syllabic l, that means it doesn't use a vowel to be a separate syllable. Others use a schwa. Yet others indicate an optional schwa. The third is rare but it's what I do on Wiktionary so as to cover the other two views in a single pronunciation. The problem is that schwa can never carry stress, primary or secondary. Most English disyllabic words only have a primary stress. Compare "goaty" which would have stress only on the first syllable, and "goatee" which has stress on both syllables.
 * 3) "" is not a sound used in English – it would be a retroflex "t". Narrow transcriptions may use a few symbols but in dictionaries only "t" is used.
 * 4) I'm not an expert but as far as I know, dark l "" is not used in American English. It is used in British English but is only shown in narrow transcriptions. Dictionaries just use "l".

I would recommend // for British English, and // for American English. — Hippietrail 07:16, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Agreed. We were talking about this before on IRC, but I forgot to fix it. Incidentally, the velarised alveolar lateral approximant (dark L) does appear in most US dialects, from my recollection. Ask Muke, he'll know. Anyhoo, I'll add those in, since I entirely agree with the transcriptions you have there (though I'll add to both as well). --Wytukaze 16:24, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Pronunciation section challenges
At the time of writing the pron section looks thus:

Pronunciation

 * /"bQt(@)l/ (UK) or /"bAt(@)l/ (US)
 * /"bQt(@)l/ (UK) or /"bAt(@)l/ (US)

It's lacking an American dictionary style pronunciation section, only has audio for some regions, the printed guides' regions dont' match the audio regions, there are no rhymes sections. None of this is a problem but we'll need a robust and flexible format to accommodate all these when they are added pice by piece.

Various attempts have been made at tables in the past but imho none have been satisfactory. They seem to take up a lot more space, don't look very professional, and have proven difficult for new contributors to add to. Again, this doesn't mean that a nice solution using tables is not possible.

Let me try to integrate the extra info into the format I've been using for my pronunciation sections...

Pronunciation

 * (UK): xxx,, /"bQt(@)l/
 * Homophones: not needed in this case
 * Audio: not provided yet in this case
 * Rhymes: -ɒt(ə)l
 * (US): xxx,, /"bAt(@)l/
 * Homophones: not needed in this case
 * Rhymes: -xxx
 * Audio: ,

 * 1) My "American Dictionary" style pronunciation (elsewhere still known erroneously as "AHD") is designed to unify British and US to a large degree so splitting it up won't really work and dup'ing it doesn't seem optimal.
 * 2) There are may British dictionaries using IPA to serve as a guide, American dictionaires less so but there's a bit if we work at it. But Canadian IPA? Is there something to guide us? And if we don't have a separate line for Canadian, where does the Canadian sound belong? Can it share a line with US version? What if we label that line "North American"?
 * 3) Rhymes are also unified so we can't really have two rhymes entries when the differences between the "commonwealth" and "north american" are systematic and predictable.

Let's hear some great ideas (-: — Hippietrail 07:17, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Etymology
According to this dictionary, bottle is from Anglo-Norman via Middle English. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:30, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
 * If it's from Modern French, what was the English word for bottle pre-1600? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:35, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
 * So you need a translation, do you. Try Middle English. [Does this tell you anything about the value of maintaining distinctions between ME and Modern English]? DCDuring TALK  20:45, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't see how a translation would help; both sources cite a Middle English form, but one says from Old English, one from Anglo-Norman. Butler seems to be from the Old French/Anglo-Norman word meaning officer in charge of a bottle. --Mglovesfun (talk) 20:51, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * It's not from modern French, it was still called a bottle in Middle English (botel:). The OED's first cite is from c.1375. < class="latinx" >Ƿidsiþ 20:53, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

Derivation of the sense meaning courage
I thought this derived from the older phrase Dutch courage: -- i.e. from the effects of gin (originally a Dutch recipe) and its usefulness in working up the nerve to go into battle. Is there some other derivation at work here?

And either way, would someone please add a derivation for this sense? -- Ta, Eiríkr Útlendi | Tala við mig 23:22, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

American phonetics
I'm no expert, but how does one articulate an alveolar flap followed by a syllabic l with no intervening vowel? Again, I'm no expert, but after examining my own articulation carefully, I've become convinced that I (with what I think is a typical general American accent) precede the syllabic l with an (alveolar) lateral flap - a phone I was surprised to learn is in my repertoire! Am I atypical in this, or should the phonetic transcription be altered? 166.137.208.31 07:00, 17 May 2014 (UTC)

Missing Definition
It was also used to mean some type of container for liquids made out of other materials, such as leather. I believe this is probably the meaning intended in Matthew 9 KJV 174.124.136.252 01:48, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

 * I assume that's sense 1. We say "typically made of glass or plastic", not "always" made of those things. Equinox ◑ 03:02, 29 May 2016 (UTC)

To be someone's bottle
I saw this phrase in Tom Jones (citation below), meaning to stand somebody a drink. Should it be documented under this entry, or under be someone's bottle? Equinox ◑ 01:23, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

 * The wine being now at an end, the barber pressed very eagerly to be his bottle; but Jones absolutely refused, saying, “He had already drank more than he ought: and that he now chose to retire to his room, where he wished he could procure himself a book.”
 * The wine being now at an end, the barber pressed very eagerly to be his bottle; but Jones absolutely refused, saying, “He had already drank more than he ought: and that he now chose to retire to his room, where he wished he could procure himself a book.”

Royal Navy slang: a rebuke or reprimand
Seen in a few books of slang but can't find citations: there's too much about real bottles of drink etc. Equinox ◑ 16:10, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

RFV discussion: January 2024
Rfv-sense: " A bundle, especially of hay; something tied in a bundle." Tagged by WF as he was removing a Chaucer quote from under this sense. This sense is in OED, but I'm currently unable to check the actual content of the entry (I blame New Year gremlins). This, that and the other (talk) 05:56, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
 * The 1888 edition has these cites under a separate etymology (unlike our entry, which currently groups this together with glass bottles), deriving it from "Old French botel, diminutive of *bot, masc. form of botte" whence .- -sche (discuss) 07:01, 4 January 2024 (UTC)
 * This seems to have had three cites under it already at the time it was listed. I've added a seeMoreCites to the rest and moved it to its own etymology section. - -sche (discuss) 07:20, 5 January 2024 (UTC)

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 Naryathegreat. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Naryathegreat~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.

I have no serious complaints since most of this is similar to what I had in mind. There are some minor wording changes that I would now make, but that's often the case with my own work after I have let it lay for a while. The "language consideration" format for the article title should probably be the same for Greek as what you now have for Chinese and Japanese. This will allow us to develop some consistency.

Etymology
, and of ultimate origin. Commonly proposed etymologies are and.

According to Coromines & Pascual (1980:323-324), fasta is first attested with certainty in the 13th century (dubiously earlier since 1074), with variants (att. 1098 as, Auto de Reyes Magos),  (att. 1050, very rare),  (att. ca. 1000, Glosas Emilianenses),  (att. 945, in a Cardeña document). A(d)ta predominates in pre-literary (pre-13th century) texts, then in the 13th c. there is increasing vacillation between a predominant fata and the variant fasta until fasta becomes established in the 14th c. They propose st as dissimilation of the earlier dt in adta, attempting to render the Arabic geminate tt, and the initial f- (i.e. /ɸ ~ h/) found in various forms renders the initial Arabic /ħ/ of ḥattā. Cognate with 🇨🇬, (stressed as até?),, , ; 🇨🇬; 🇨🇬, , , , ; 🇨🇬; 🇨🇬, ; 🇨🇬, ,.

Viaro (2013) proposes a derivation of fasta from +, after these reduced to  + t(r)a, cf. Spanish, pointing out became  instead of *astor. Meanwhile, the mostly pre-13th century a(d)ta would be from + intrā, cognate with 🇨🇬 and ata.

Wiktionary:Japanese transliteration

Transliteration of the Japanese Language
The basis for Wiktionary's romanization of Japanese (called or  in Japanese) is the Hepburn system. Other than the rules elaborated below, all Japanese text should follow the Hepburn romanization charts on Wikipedia (this does not include the rules qualifying those charts that are also listed above in the same article). Draft Note: Wiktionary employs some modifications to Hepburn that are not included in Wikipedia, particularly with regard to the use of to romanize  (the long "i" sound).

There are two sets of rules qualifying these charts. The first is the "strict" set, to be followed in article titles and the like for maximum consistency, and the second is the "relaxed" set, which can be used in running text for improved readability.

Strict rules

 * Every word in Japanese must be expressed as a single romanized "word", with no spaces or hyphens.
 * A word, in this context, is a single sentence component. This does not include particles, called, nor compound nouns, which are treated separately. Conjugated forms are counted as a single word, whereas verbs consisting of  affixed to a noun treat the  separately. The following illustrates some examples, with appropriate romanization in parentheses:
 * Each word must be separated from other words by spaces.
 * 書式を意識して書きます (shoshiki o ishiki shite kakimasu).
 * The character は, when used as a particle, must be transliterated as wa instead of ha.
 * これは例文です (kore wa reibun desu)
 * The character を, when used as a particle, must be transliterated as o instead of wo.
 * When used in proper nouns, including person and place names, it must be transliterated as o unless it is customary to transliterate that person's or place's name as wo.
 * The character へ, when used as a particle, must be transliterated as e instead of he.
 * 日本へ行きたい (Nihon e ikitai), exception: へんたい (hentai)
 * The character ん, when followed in the same word by a vowel (あ, い, う, え, or お) or semivowel "y" mora (や, ゆ, よ), must be transliterated as n' instead of just n.
 * 近縁 (きんえん, kin'en), as opposed to 近年 (きんねん, kinnen) and 記念 (きねん, kinen)
 * 金融 (きんゆう, kin'yū), as opposed to 記入 (きにゅう, kinyū)
 * Exception: This does not apply to "w" mora (わ, ウィ, ウェ, ウォ). Instead, a rare "nw" mora (ヌァ, ヌィ, ヌェ, ヌォ), must begin 'nw instead of just nw.
 * ルブヌィ (Rubu'nwi), as opposed to おんわ (onwa) or コンウィ (Konwi)
 * Any symbol followed by ー (the chōonpu) indicates that the vowel is long and it is transliterated by using the vowel with a macron over it (ā, ē, ī, ō, ū).
 * らーめん (rāmen), ビー玉 (ビーだま, bīdama), スーツ (sūtsu), ケーキ (kēki), オーケストラ (ōkesutora).
 * Any syllable ending in the お (o) sound that is followed by う in the same word must be considered a "long o" and transliterated as ō.
 * 交差点 (こうさてん, kōsaten) and ありがとう (arigatō)
 * Exception: if there is a morphemic break between お and う, おう should be transliterated ou. For example:
 * If the う is the final syllable in a verb, and thus transformed to another syllable as a result of conjugation: 誘う (さそう, sasou).
 * In compound terms, such as 牡牛 (おうし, oushi) and 牡馬 (おうま, ouma).
 * ああ (aa), いい (ii), うう (uu), ええ (ee) and おお (oo) combinations are considered long vowel forms and are transliterated as ā, ī, ū, ē and ō respectively.
 * Exception: If there is a morpheme boundary, then both vowels must be written.
 * お母さん (おかあさん, okāsan), らーめん (rāmen), and 逆上がり (さかあがり, sakaagari).
 * 姉さん (ねえさん, nēsan), exceptions: 濡れ縁 (ぬれえん, nureen) and ケーキ (kēki).
 * 新潟 (にいがた, Nīgata), ビー玉 (ビーだま, bīdama), and 言い (ii).
 * 大騒ぎ (おおさわぎ, ōsawagi), exceptions: 呉音 (ごおん, goon) and 女王 (じょおう, joō).
 * 十 (じゅう, jū), exceptions: 食う (くう, kuu) and 風雲 (ふううん, fūun).
 * っ (the sokuon, a.k.a. little tsu) must be transliterated as a doubling of the initial consonant of the following character. If there is no following character, then it is transliterated as an apostrophe (write  to escape from markups).
 * 喫茶店 (きっさてん, kissaten), って (tte), あっ (a')
 * Exceptions:
 * If the sokuon precedes the chi kana (ち/チ), do not use "cchi" and instead use "tchi" (or the equivalent yōon, e.g. tcha、tcho, etc.): しょっちゅう (shotchū).
 * If the sokuon precedes an "n" (ナ, ニ, ヌ, ネ, ノ) or "m" mora (マ, ミ, ム, メ, モ), transliterate it using an apostrophe: ハガッニャ (Haga'nya), トッモ (to'mo).
 * Japanese punctuation can be romanized with the closest equivalent English punctuation: . for . ; ,　for 、; " for 「 or 」; etc.
 * 行きましょうか. Ikimashō ka.
 * ポテチを取り、食べる. Potechi o tori, taberu.
 * Exceptions:
 * If the sokuon precedes the chi kana (ち/チ), do not use "cchi" and instead use "tchi" (or the equivalent yōon, e.g. tcha、tcho, etc.): しょっちゅう (shotchū).
 * If the sokuon precedes an "n" (ナ, ニ, ヌ, ネ, ノ) or "m" mora (マ, ミ, ム, メ, モ), transliterate it using an apostrophe: ハガッニャ (Haga'nya), トッモ (to'mo).
 * Japanese punctuation can be romanized with the closest equivalent English punctuation: . for . ; ,　for 、; " for 「 or 」; etc.
 * 行きましょうか. Ikimashō ka.
 * ポテチを取り、食べる. Potechi o tori, taberu.

Relaxed rules

 * If a compound word can be broken into discrete parts, especially when one of the parts is a common prefix or suffix, use a hyphen to separate the parts.
 * Exception: if the word is very short, or the prefix or suffix is strongly associated with the word: ,
 * If a particle or suffix is strongly associated with the preceding word, it is acceptable to use a hyphen instead of a space.
 * If a sentence is a question, a question mark should be used in the romanization. If it is unclear whether the sentence is a question (e.g., ), the question mark is optional, and should probably be omitted.
 * However, when a question mark is used in the Japanese, a question mark should also be used in the romanization: e.g.,
 * If a particle or suffix is strongly associated with the preceding word, it is acceptable to use a hyphen instead of a space.
 * If a sentence is a question, a question mark should be used in the romanization. If it is unclear whether the sentence is a question (e.g., ), the question mark is optional, and should probably be omitted.
 * However, when a question mark is used in the Japanese, a question mark should also be used in the romanization: e.g.,
 * However, when a question mark is used in the Japanese, a question mark should also be used in the romanization: e.g.,

Images and formatting
Hello again. I believe the practice here is either to upload the file to Commons (preferred) or to upload it to the Wiktionary. In either case, choose the "Upload file" link in the lower left. If you upload images, please be very aware of license and copyright, since Commons does not accept images under fair use. For an example of a properly formatted image linked to Commons, see snail.

Also, please take another look at American Sign Language and Wiktionary's standard page format. The headings are very important, so please try to include them in your definitions. Thanks for asking. --Dvortygirl 23:16, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Damn, I did it again. See Dvorty's talk page for my reply to your latest question. --Wytukaze 01:51, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Re: Education category
I see you have figured out how to add articles to a catogory. Good. I think the main thing you should consider now is what sorts of articles you want in that category. Since "education" is not as focused a title as something like "English heteronyms", you might want to consider the scope of your category put a few notes at the top of Category:Education stating your intentions for the category contents. The title alone suggests to me that Bloom's Taxonomy, fourth grade, sophomore, recess, and notebook could all end up there, for instance. Beyond that, all that's left (to my knowledge), is to start adding to the bottom of articles you want in the category. If you have any other questions, I'll be around. --Dvortygirl 20:41, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * To create subcategories, just add them to the categories like any other article. For instance, if you peek into the edit screen, you'll see that the subcategory Category:English idioms is in Category:Idioms.  --Dvortygirl 05:06, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Hi, me again. I notice you're creating categories by "Primary School", "College", and so on. Chatting with Wytukaze (that other fellow whose note appears at the top of this page), it is clear that these various levels are not called by the same names here as they are in the UK.  College, as I understand it, is a separate two years between high school and university for our colleagues across the pond, so take care when establishing these categories. Also, consider that something like sophomore could belong in both high school and (US) college.--Dvortygirl 15:04, 19 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Education entries
Hi there. These entries seem to be very US centred. Bachelor of Arts for instance mentions semester which (I think) is only used in the US and probably Canada. Other people use term. Cheers SemperBlotto 07:39, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
