lock and load

Etymology
Attested since at least 1793, when a document describes flintlock weapons that are ready to fire as "well locked and loaded". The variant "load(ed) and lock(ed)" is found since at least 1815. The phrase may have originated from the use of gunlocks on naval artillery (in use by the Royal Navy since 1745); as gunlocks were not required for firing (a lintstock could be used) it may have been necessary to specify cannon was "locked" as well as loaded.

As an imperative, used since at least 1940, in the U.S. Army Field Manual for the M1 Rifle. Compare e.g. German "laden und sichern" ("load and secure"). Popularized in culture after being used by in  (1949).

Interjection

 * 1) * 1949 — John Wayne in the film Sands of Iwo Jima
 * Lock and load, boy, lock and load.
 * 1)  Prepare for an imminent event.
 * 1)  Prepare for an imminent event.

Talk:干

幹
Why do the definitions for this character not match the definitions for 幹 (traditional version? Badagnani 00:41, 23 March 2006 (UTC) Why are there now two sets of definitions for this character -- one set on top, and one set under "Chinese"? Badagnani 22:33, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
 * 干 is the simplified character for 幹, but also is its own character in traditional Chinese. For example:
 * but
 * on the other hand
 * The traditional characters cannot be mixed and matched. In simplified Chinese, all three are consolidated into one character: 干. A-cai 08:41, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

亁
So are we just supposed to omit the very common definition of (Chin.) 干 as "fuck"? It's common enough that Chinese grocery stores sometimes have "Fuck Foods" sections where they sell dry goods. Likewise, the Chinese delicacies "fuck bullfrog" and "fuck spring chicken." See also its entries on Wikipedia's Chinglish page. LlywelynII 07:15, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Unclear
The entry is still very unclear, with the italicized "traditional" and "simplified," etc.--especially to a new user, a Chinese learner, or a user unfamiliar with Wiktionary's conventions, whether 干 can be a traditional character. There should be no ambiguity (which the italicized "traditional" without colons or semicolons creates) which character is simplified and which character is traditional. This entry should be formatted in such a manner that all such ambiguity is eliminated so that these issues are made absolutely clear to all visitors to this site. 24.29.228.33 20:15, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

누나

Etymology
Contracted from, ultimately from pre-Middle Korean "sister" or similar; see  for more. The phonologically conservative and  conserve the original  in this word.

Korean colloquial family terms commonly stem from a fused vocative. See Category:Korean terms suffixed with -아 (vocative).

Noun

 * 1) older sister of a male
 * 2)  somewhat older female friend or acquaintance
 * 1)  somewhat older female friend or acquaintance
 * 1)  somewhat older female friend or acquaintance

Usage notes
This term is used as a de facto second-person pronoun by men to address both older sisters and unrelated women of somewhat older age. This is because Korean does not permit the use of true second-person pronouns towards a social superior. See 너 for more.

 * 2)  and  would be  in goon and is definitely  in kan'on (maybe both)
 * , the financial form for "three", is definitely in both goon and kan'on

Both shin and son/san are used for the "Three Stars mansion" sense (maybe?). Son/San has the "add, combine, mix" senses.

Usage notes

 * Phrasal verbs with the particles and  tend to connote a process that takes a span of time and contains multiple steps, whereas those with the particles  and  tend to connote an event that happens instantly, in a point of time. This nuance of cognitive schema is merely connotative, not denotative or rigorous, and therefore the phrasal verbs shut down and  are broadly synonymous with, , and , as well as  and . However, the fact that turning a computer on or off requires  and unwinding, which are multistep processes (albeit black boxes to the user in modern operating systems), influenced the origins of power management commands such as shut down rather than turn off or switch off. Similarly, power plants and ship engines are fired up and shut down, and not so much turned on and switched off, in idiomatic usage. Nonetheless, any process (no matter how complex) can be triggered with a single command, which is why an executive officer or legislature can simply  a multi-billion-dollar government program, or  a laptop user can simply  their computer, even if the program takes a while to.

слово duzij ?
Привет, я недавно рассматривал этимологию слова doughty и согласно Online Etymology Dictionary ему якобы родственно какое-то русское слово duzij(дузий, дужий ?), означающее "сильный, крепкий"(strog, robust). В моем (довольно большом) толковом словаре такого слова нет. Ты слышал о чем-либо подобном? К тому же, в связи с этимологией clout я наткнулся на слово глуда. Его я по крайней мере нашел в Интернете в одном словаре со значением "ком", а в другом указано, что это употребляется в Малороссии(Украине). Скажи, пожалуйста, насколько употребительно слово глуда, надо ли ставить метку (dialect Russian) и есть ли что-то вроде duzij? Спасибо заранее. С Рождеством. Bogorm 15:47, 6 January 2009 (UTC) There's a word "дюжий" (d'úžij) -- strong, sturdy. I don't know the word "глуда".
 * Thanks, I was mislead, because I am accustomed to the old Romanisation, used in Encyclopædia Britannica, you know: djuzhij. If you prefer, d'úžij, well. Bogorm 16:51, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Is not Russian your native language or my Russian is too austere? I judged based on the user name... Bogorm 16:46, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Русский - мой родной язык, просто хотелось немного выпендриться. --Wanjuscha 16:58, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Хорошо, я чуть было не подумал, что мой русский - неуклюжий. Я болгарин. Bogorm 17:08, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * А насчет слова "глуда", вот что я нашел в словаре Даля: "глудкий ·*архан., ·*олон. глуздкий ·*твер. гладкий, скользкий Глудкий путь. Глудь гладь, скользкий путь или место; обледеница, гололедица, корка. Глуда, ·*вор. грудка ·*малорос. глыба, ком, кусочек; | ·*архан. выглаженная волнами поверхность камешка. Глуздить ·*архан., ·*олон. скользить. Лошадь не кована, глуздит, сглуздилась. Скользкий, ·*новг. склезкий, ·*архан. глуздкий, ·*пск. глезкий, общего корня." --Wanjuscha 19:25, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Спасибо за ссылку, я именно в связи с этим о малорос. спросил. Я намереваюсь написать в статье clout dialect Russian или Ukrainian Russian, вы согласны? Наверное надо спросить украинца, но здесь нет... Мне кажется, что раз тогда это слово, как Даль указывает, было употребительно на Украине (тогда Малороссии), то сегодня либо оно все еще только там употребительно, либо устаревшее, но во всяком случае было бы неправильно не добавить что-либо перед Russian. Значит, я напишу dialect Russian(eсть уже много родственных слов на dialect German), договорились? Bogorm 19:38, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * ИМХО, это слово слишком редкое для этого словаря.
 * Я не собираюсь создавать отдельную статью, я только упомяну его в разделе этимологии статьи clout и Kloß, вот в этом словаре (Вебстера) указано, что это слово, англ. clout и нем. Kloß родственны. Но америкосы не написали, что русское слово - диалектное, нужно было самим разыскивать(и с вашей помощью, разумеется). А можно в будущем обращаться на ты? Bogorm 19:54, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Можно.

Привет
Приветствую Wanjuscha,

Рад познакомиться. Насчёт транслитерации "медленно" в slowly, я предпочитаю не обозначать смягчение согласных для последовательности (слишком много статей не обозначает), чтобы меньше сбивать с толку и упрощения траснлитерации. Хотя в некоторых случаях, когда произношение отличается Питер (имя) и Питер (Санкт-Петеребург) можно разъяснить. Не хочу навязывать своё мнение, стандартов слишком много для русского, просто объяснил своё отношение к вопросу. В некоторых случаях я значок смягчения удалил (кроме слов с "ь"). Анатолий Anatoli 22:07, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Приветствую ещё раз. Спасибо за вклад. Насчёт русской "е". Посмотрите, пожалуйста http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Russian_transliteration, по этому стандарту, "е" передаётся e или je, если вы считаете, что нужно 'е, обсудите на странице обсуждения. Anatoli 08:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

дробь
Hello. I created the entry based on Russian translation in Appendix:List of Proto-Slavic nouns/Animals. Looks like it was wrong. I checked in dictionary and the Russian for "poultry" is "домашняя птица", right?

So if the poultry translation was wrong, can you please change/remove Russian translation for *drobь in Appendix:List of Proto-Slavic nouns/Animals and Appendix:List of Proto-Slavic nouns/Agriculture and crafts? Thanks. Maro 18:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Wanjuscha perhaps doesn't check his talk page. I have changed the entries to the best of my knowledge. Yes, "poultry" is "домашняя птица" and дробь has no such meaning in modern Russian, not sure about the historical meanings. Anatoli 00:43, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

For verbs
Hi there. When you work with verbs, can you please make sure that they are in the form of the infinitive. What I mean is, instead of just having pickle, salt, corn as the definition, can you have to pickle, to salt, to corn as the definition? It would be very helpful. Thanks, Razorflame 08:11, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Raisorflame, there is a straightforward rule which is indispensable even to beginning knowledge in Russian - Russian verbs end in -ть, -ти or -чь and words with all kind of endings different than those three cannot be verbs. Therefore I do not deem the fulfilment of this requæst needful. The uſer hight Bogorm converſation 12:46, 23 February 2010 (UTC)

Nice work!
Hey there Wanjuscha! Awesome work on the Russian entries here on the English Wiktionary! You've done an amazing job! Keep up the good work!

There is something else that I'd like to talk to you about, though :) Would you be willing to make some of the massive amount of Russian entries that are still missing from the English Wiktionary?  Seeing as you have the language skills to do so, I think it would be a great idea, and you'd be making the English Wiktionary more complete ;)  Whaddya say? Razorflame 12:09, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

tank wagon
Hi Wanjuscha,

I find both masculine and feminine attributes for vagon-cisterna in Russian Is there any rule for such hybrid words in Russian?

Thanks! Jcwf 13:55, 3 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Such words have a gender of a "main" word.

but also with the first parameter. I figure that because most words need accents, we might as well make it a numbered parameter. They both work for now because others still use  and I didn't want to make things difficult for them. Here's an example of how things work with the new parameters: (the old way was ). I'd like to know what you think of the new way. Should we make it the standard or should we keep the old parameters? I've done it this way for Ukrainian and Slovene and from my own experience it works quite nicely. 13:40, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Sounds comfortable --Wanjuscha (talk) 13:46, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

икнуть
You gave the parameter "tr" twice here. You shouldn't need to give a transliteration because it can be generated automatically. 17:15, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, provided the automatic transliteration is what is desired, otherwise, need to use "tr", like in, which should be "intɛrpretírovatʹ". --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 21:56, 17 October 2013 (UTC)

Personal questions
Hi,

do you mind if I were to ask you a few personal questions? Feel free to not answer them, but I ask them because I wish to know something about 'memory' in Russia or with Russians in general. I ask these questions to several native Russian speakers, so forgive me if you encounter these questions on different talkpages. So here are the questions:

 * When were you born?
 * Were you 16 or older in the 1980s?
 * Were you born in Russia/Soviet Union? Where?
 * How do you remember the Soviet-Afghan war/Afghan war?
 * How do you remember the Soviet repression, such as the Gulag or the prison camp system?
 * How do you remember the public discussion in the 1980s/1990s about the repression and the prison camp system?
 * How do you feel about the victims of the Afghan war and the victims of the repression?

Answer in anyway you like (which includes not answering as well of course), thank you very much.

Kind regards,

/ɐ/ или /ə/
Привет, чем ты руководствуешься при транскрибировании безударных гласных «а» и «о», если они НЕ в предударном слоге, но непосредственно перед предударной гласной (считается исключением)? Например, как бы ты транскрибировал слово «наугад» - /nɐʊˈgat/ или /nəʊˈgat/? Module_talk:ru-pron/testcases--Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:35, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Трудно сказать... В "наугад" мне слышится скорее /ə/. Хотя различить трудно. --Wanjuscha (talk) 05:47, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Спасибо. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:10, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Удвоенное (долгое) произношение согласных
Привет, Иван, ты не знаешь, когда удваиваются согласные, какие есть ещё правила? В начале слова - "ссо́ра", "введе́ние", сразу после ударения - "то́нна", "ва́нна", "дра́ться", а ещё? Почему в словах "отчёт", "отце́живать", "отцепи́ть" произносится удвоенно (долго), а в слове "де́латься", "касси́р" - нет? CC -, ,. (I've asked about the rules for pronunciation of long consonants). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:01, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Anatoli, I think that -нн- is always pronounced double (немедленно). I believe initial сс- and вв- are pronounced double because the first is a prefix. Same with отч- and отц-, they are pronounced double because от- is a prefix. I think that -ться and -тся are pronounced double if the immediately preceding vowel is stressed; otherwise, like a single consonant. If it is not a question of prefixes and not -нн-, then doubled consonants are usually pronounced like single consonants. —Stephen (Talk) 05:49, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you, Stephen. I think we should add common prefixes for long pronunciations. I think with and, they should be short: /nʲɪˈmʲedlʲɪnə/ and /ˈmʲedlʲɪnə/. Some people pronounce long because of the spelling pronunciation? --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:10, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Мне кажется, что общее правило - это, что удвоенные согласные бывают только на границах морфем (но есть исключения). Например: введение = в- + ведение, длинный = длин- + -ный, отцепить = от- + цепить, и т.г.. И это не только касается слитным словам, например: вот-то, с солью, от тех, без совести, и т.д. (я не уверен, откуда просходит двойное с в словах ссора, ссориться, и т.д., но я сам почему-то произношу эти слова без удвония). В иностранных слов не сохраняется удвоение, например: Россия, параллель, коммунизм. Искючения: В некотрых редких словах есть удвоение без границы морема, как например жжет. Окончения -тся и -ться часто произносятся без удвоение, у некоторых всегда (как у меня), у друдих якобы только когда не сразу после ударение (но я сам такого никогда не слышал). Даже в иностранных словах -нн- часто удваивается после сразу после ударение, например в имени Анна, в слове тонна (но не всегда и не у всех), но не в слове тоннель. У прилагательных и наречий, часто путуются -н- и -нн-, после ударения -н- часто удваивается, а без ударение -нн- часто теряет удвоение, например я произношу слова пьяный и ученый с удвоением, а немедленно без. И еще в быстрой речи часто теряется удвоение почти в начале слога (с соленьями = с оленями) --WikiTiki89 15:35, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Automatic pronunciation - IPA for Russian
Hi,

You can now carefully start using, a new template to automatically generate IPA for Russian. It's developed by User:Wyang. For example, in "рождаемость":

There are some current unresolved cases and there will be new ones and it currently doesn't support variants and irregularities. It's still in beta stage. You can ask Wyang or add new test cases to Module:ru-pron/testcases. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:30, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Посмотрим, посмотрим --Wanjuscha (talk) 06:33, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

 * Посмотри, посмотри :) Я знаю, что ты почти всегда добавлял произношение, ты может быть, скорее найдёшь новые проблемы. Пока полностью не установлены правила по удвоенным согласным, есть вопросы по словосочетаниям из нескольких слов. Можно пользоваться, но осторожно и пока проверять результат и смотреть какие вещи модуль ещё НЕ может делает, например "мышь" сейчас не сработает (шипящие + "ь"). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:43, 6 June 2014 (UTC)
 * Wyang только что исправил текущие ошибки, теперь можно делать такие слова как "мышь", "дочь", и так далее. Thanks! --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:49, 6 June 2014 (UTC)

Транслитерация, знак ударения и метод добавления переводов
Привет,

Меня удивило, что ты до сих пор пользуешься старым методом добавления переводов. Это намного дольше, неудобно и можно сделать ошибку :). Хочу напомнить, что транслитерация (tr=) в большинстве случаев не нужна и ударение можно ставить в переводе без |alt=, например, . Кроме того, лучше пользоваться User:Conrad.Irwin/editor.js, не нужно редактировать вручную. Если слово есть в русском викисловаре, то JavaScript автоматически поменяет на  (у второго шаблона есть ссылка (линк) на русский викисловарь), сравни бала́нс и . --Anatoli T.

Talk:country

False Etymology
This article attributes the "cunt__". The root of the term "country" to the Latin word contra (meaning 'against') when in fact it derives from the Old English cunt signifying motherhood or the yanni; Country literally means "motherland."

 * in a similar vein, the last definition "(vulgar, countable) The female genitalia, especially the vagina." seems suspect. I've never heard it used that way and the example given is a 1980's song lyric "Would you like to go for a ride in the country with me?". Reading the lyrics in context I don't think it means that and a euphemism is also not a definition. This sounds like a joke. Akeosnhaoe (talk) 06:18, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Athletic Competition
Why in the commonwealth games do England and Scotland compete seperately and not as the United Kingdom? Could a state in Australia or Canada compete seperatley? Why don't they now. If England and Scotland etc are not members of the Commonwealth of Nations how can they compete independently in the Commonwealth Games?

Dale.

Hebrew
ארץ (in the sense of "country") is "aretz" only when it comes after prefix, as in הארץ (ha'aretz - the country) or בארץ (ba'aretz - in the country); Otherwise, "aretz" means "earth" (in physical sense) and "eretz" means "country". As for the stresses: the stress in the word "ארץ" (in both senses) comes in the first syllable. In the word "מדינה" (medina) the stress comes in the last syllable. Liso 17:39, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Former independent nation?
Currently the second definition given is "A former independent nation state (e.g., England or Scotland)." No other dictionary I've consulted claims this definition, and no example is given. Can anyone cite a reference where "country" is used of e.g. the modern England or Scotland? Is it being used as an inaccurate synonym for "nation", which is what England and Scotland formally are? And does this definition implicitly include a continuing political identity for the former independent nation state, or would Yugoslavia qualify? 83.44.173.231 10:10, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Primary meaning?
Don't you think that the primary meaning here is an area of land, with a nation secondary to that?Redddogg 04:33, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Also missing are expressions such as "the north country" and the like. Redddogg 19:51, 21 November 2010 (UTC)

in country
In a given country where military operations or other coordinated activities are ongoing: “He'd been in country a month longer than the other four” (Nelson DeMille). --Backinstadiums (talk) 11:11, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

RFV discussion: March–April 2021
Rfv-sense "female genitalia", added by User:Akeosnhaoe, who left a comment on Talk:country. – Jberkel 09:20, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * To be clear, the disputed sense was added by a different user. Akeosnhaoe’s role was to question it, writing that it “sounds like a joke”. The lyrics of “Hey Bobby” contain phrases such as “four-wheeled beauty” (as the text makes clear, the first car owned by the speaker), “ride a little ways down 299”, and “park in the shade”. Thus, the cited snippet “Would you like to go for a ride in the country with me?” clearly refers to an invitation to join the speaker on a literal car ride. In no way does it attest this euphemistic sense. --Lambiam 15:07, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * During the obligatory Shakespeare phase of English classes, a classmate remarked on what in modern English would be a pun when Hamlet asks Ophelia "Do you think I meant country matters?" Vox Sciurorum (talk) 15:29, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * It was a pun in Shakespeare's time, and he did it deliberately. But that doesn't mean that means "cunt". —Mahāgaja · talk 18:34, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Can I delete it? The lyrics are completely irrelevant. Akeosnhaoe (talk) 08:38, 2 April 2021 (UTC)

Etymology 2
From.

From the Australian convict period (1788–1850); a prisoner who was purposely and extensively abused by an overseer (also a convict) and thereby driven to escape but who, finding it impossible to survive in the Australian bush, surrenders to this overseer, who would then have his penal term reduced. The particular crawler was picked for his weak personality and might escape and return a number of times increasing his own penal term each time. According to James Tucker, some convict overseers had their sentences extensively reduced using this odious practice.
