Stress difference
Craig Ferguson uses RP and American hostess Joy Behar "corrects" him. If anyone was interested. ALTON .ıl  09:17, 2 August 2008 (UTC)
 * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nthic1lLoko (3:36)

 * He certainly doesn't use RP, though. 2.203.201.61 08:23, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

nonstandard pronunciation
This from my NOAD2: USAGE There are two possible pronunciations of the word controversy: one puts the stress on the con- and the other puts it on the -trov-. The second pronunciation, though common in Britain, is still held to be incorrect in standard American and British English. --24.12.160.175 21:10, 6 February 2010 (UTC)
 * The second pronunciation (with the stress on the second syllable) was once recommended by the BBC pronunciation unit, and used by BBC announcers and presenters in the UK. The pronunciation department changed their minds (was it in the 1970s?), and nearly everyone in the BBC now puts the stress on the first syllable, with a secondary stress on the third.  The earlier pronunciation can hardly be regarded as "wrong" in the UK, but it is beginning to sound dated.    D b f  i  r  s   11:52, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Interesting and quite believable given the increasing influence of American English on British. However, do you have a source for this? Because this says the exact opposite, namely that CON- is older and more traditional, but -TROV- is "now more widespread in British English". Perhaps a trend that was reversed? 2.203.201.61 08:16, 20 July 2019 (UTC)

 * I noticed that which one of these was the older vs newer pronounciation has been changed back and forth over the last year, so I went looking for more sources. Jasper Copping, "[//www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/8305645/The-conTROversy-over-changing-pronunciations.html The 'conTROversy' over changing pronunciations]", The Telegraph, 5 February 2011, reports on then-interim results of a study by the British Library finding the same thing as Lexico says above (and as our entry says as of the current revision), namely that "Britons are also creating a new way of saying controversy which hasn’t traditionally been used in Britain or the US. Three quarters of Britons taking part [in the study] say “conTROversy”, with the emphasis on the middle syllable, rather than the previously conventional “CONtroversy”. Jonnie Robinson, curator of sociolinguistics and education at the British Library, said [...] 'People complain about it, when they hear it on the radio, for instance, and there might be a popular myth that this one is changing as a result of American usage – but there is no evidence that Americans are doing it.'" (The 'new' pronunciation goes back to at least 1987, when I find it mentioned in Verbatim, vol. 14-15, p. 21.) - -sche (discuss) 16:17, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Unanimous hatred vs. division of opinion?
I've seen the word used to refer to things unanimously hated, even though that sense strays from the word's etymology. I've even had a conversation about something that would be unanimously hated where the person talking to me said it would be a controversy, and I replied that a controversy means something with huge division of opinion. He said that the term can also refer to something universally hated, which I think arose from the original sense because of interpreting the term as something that sparks public outrage, whether partial and including debate (the original sense), or universal (this supposed sense). So would the sense of anything that sparks public outrage, regardless of division of opinion on the matter, meet inclusion criteria? ThighFish (talk) 16:35, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

 * It wouldn't surprise me if such a sense existed. To add it to the entry, we would need to find concrete examples of the word being used that way, and it may be difficult to find examples which couldn't just be interpreted as the usual meaning given that very few things are universally hated and defended by absolutely no-one. I think the media's love of euphemisms has lead media to refer to "controversy over X" or call X "controversial" rather than do (and potentially be criticized for) the work of judging and reporting how widely (or not widely) condemned/disliked/etc X is, which can lead to situations in which very widely condemned things (as well as things only condemned by a few people) are presented as "controversial". That would make it likely that, as you suggest, some people would interpret the word as just indicating that something sparks outrage without regard for whether it is also defended by any significant faction. But again, it may be hard to find examples of controversy being used to refer to something that truly has no defenders / about which there is truly no dissenting opinion. - -sche (discuss) 03:14, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Too bad we can't cite WP for this euphemistic use. Some things referred as controversies there are only controversies in which all or part of an organization is one one side and most of the rest of the expressed views are on the other. It's hard to say what the passive observers think about the matter, so maybe the euphemism is just an attempt to avoid being swept up in or feeding a frenzy.

Talk:day

day - adjective sense
There are comments within the edit view of this article challenging the existance of the term day as an adjective. The comment pretty much states that day is a noun and is not an adjective - maybe a pronoun?--Williamsayers79 12:28, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * That is correct, day is a noun and a noun modifier but not an adjective. In some dialects, it can also be a pronoun and a possessive determiner, although these dialects are not usually written. —Stephen 14:14, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I would argue that in a set phrase such as day laborer, that day is being used as an adjective. I do agree though that the examples currently given in the definition function as function more as nouns of modification rather than as true adjectives. --EncycloPetey 18:36, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * "Day" in day laborer is a noun. Sometimes when people are not accustomed to distinguishing between compound nouns and nouns with adjectives can benefit by applying the stress rule. With compound nouns, the first noun usually bears the main stress for the compound; when dealing with adjectives, the adjective usually is not stressed. For example, a GERMAN teacher (a teacher of German) versus a German TEACHER (a teacher from Germany). A GREENhouse versus a green HOUSE. A BOOK report versus a bookish REPORT. It is quite unnatural to say "day LABOROR", and we say "DAY laboror" instead, and this is a strong indication that you’ve got a compound noun. —Stephen 22:36, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I confess that I am confused by this distinction quite often. Stephen, that is an excellent summary (reference?), that should be mentioned somewhere here - but I can't think of quite the right place for it.  Appendix: English rules?  It doesn't seem exactly applicable to WT:CFI or WT:ELE.  --Connel MacKenzie 22:46, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Adjective
day

 * 1) Occurring during daylight hours. E.g., "Don’t give up your day job."; "She works the day shift."

Verb sense
I'm not sure what to make of this. I eventually figured out that the serjeant wasn't paid in waifs (children), but what about the verbs "year" and "day"?
 * 1845, The history of Kington, page 281:
 * That the custom of the said manor was, and by all the time whereof the memory of man had been, that the serjeant or reeve of so much of the said manor of Huntington, have had of the lord of the said manor yearly, for his wages, all the waifs and strays happening within the said manor during the time of his said office, paying for the said waifs and strays, after the same shall be yeared and dayed, in manner and form following

-day
According to the Longman Pronunciation Dictionary : Although Received Pronunciation and General American are both traditionally considered to prefer /di/, most speakers in practice use both pronunciations for this suffix, often in a strong form—weak form relationship: /deɪ/ generally in exposed positions, for example at the end of a sentence: I’ll do it on Monday /ˈmʌndeɪ/; the di form is preferred in close-knit expressions such as ,Monday 'morning --Backinstadiums (talk) 20:36, 15 March 2019 (UTC)

those days
As in the expression in those days, and we already have these days --Backinstadiums (talk) 12:36, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

late in the day
late in the day a. very late (in a particular situation) b. too late https://www.collinsdictionary.com/us/dictionary/english/late-in-the-day --Backinstadiums (talk) 19:58, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

half-day
taking preschool children in half-day sessions --Backinstadiums (talk) 15:31, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

younger days
Is it an idiom? the comparative younger as in one's younger days seems to indicate so --Backinstadiums (talk) 10:27, 28 October 2020 (UTC)

Day of the month?
I don't see the meaning "A period into which a month is divided", as in month, where meanings "A period into which a year is divided" and "A period of 30 days" are split. E.g. "In the first days of July". What do you think? Gradilion (talk) 09:54, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

 * I suppose it is the same meaning as in "3. A period from midnight to the following midnight", just not very clear. Gradilion (talk) 09:58, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Could be likewise conceived as a day of the week. Gradilion (talk) 10:27, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Appendix:Australian English sexual terms

 * bat or bat off – to masturbate (uncommon)
 * blue – pornographic ("a blue movie")
 * bugger
 * the process of wrecking or wearing something out, or making a general mess of things ("You'll bugger it up"),
 * a general purpose epithet that can range from endearment to awed surprise to outright hostility ("He's a dear old bugger" vs "well bugger me" vs "You little bugger!")
 * describing something as hard to do ("It'd be a bugger to fold up a full scale road map").
 * commonly used as a word of exclamation, as in "bugger!" Originally a very offensive word that is no longer considered as offensive.
 * to sodomise: originally considered very offensive due to this meaning
 * buggered – broken (for example it's buggered, mate or Steve buggered it); or exhausted, tired out (for example I'm buggered). Also "I'll be buggered!", an expression of surprise, or an intention to disallow something ("I'll be buggered if I'll let that stop me").
 * buggerise – see "piss-fart around"
 * crack a fat - get an erection
 * crack onto (someone) - to hit on someone, pursue someone romantically
 * drum - brothel
 * franger – condom. Not generally used in Melbourne, where Franger or Franga is more likely to be a diminutive of Frankston.
 * flog – to masturbate: "flog himself off", "I've just had a flog"
 * gobby – to receive fellatio. As in 'This hot chick gave me a great gobby last night'.
 * in the nuddy - naked
 * have a naughty - have sex
 * on the pull - generally a male dressed up and trying to pick up a sexual partner.
 * pash – to French kiss, a long passionate kiss; hence "pashing on"
 * perv – as a verb, "to have a look", as in "I'm going round to have a perv at my mate's new car". Often, and possibly its original use was with the slight sexual connotation of looking lustfully at the opposite sex as in, "Let's have a perv at those sheilas over there". As a noun, referring to a person, it is used with a stronger and often disapproving connotation ranging in meaning from "dirty old man" to someone who likes to leer at the opposite sex (derived from the term "pervert"). From this is derived uncle merv refers to going out to specifically check out the opposite sex.
 * polly waffle – brothel
 * root – synonym for fuck in nearly all its senses; (v) to have sex, (n) the sexual act, as in "I'm dyin' for a root." This can inadvertently cause embarrassment for Americans visiting Australia, if they declare that they "root" for a particular sports team.
 * rooted – broken or tired; see buggered.
 * slapa – a female sex worker/prostitute.
 * sprog – Semen. Also old Australian term for an infant, as in, "The misses just gave birth to a little sprog", or "The buggar's got 3 young sprogs at home".
 * wank – to masturbate (used for males only)

I don't understand the etymology you have provided for and related words like  and ; what is this derived term in Latin? Grazie in anticipo per la risposta. Caladon 09:48, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I have created an entry for nectina - this may be substituted for the second part of the etymology if you wish. SemperBlotto 14:57, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

amarevole
Could you have a look at the entry on my talk page, and tell us your thoughts. Cheers, Jeff. SemperBlotto 22:46, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

ocraceo
Is the f. plural really ocracee? Mglovesfun (talk) 14:22, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. Hundreds of hits on Google books (some seem to be in French!). SemperBlotto 15:51, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, of course. Italian adjectives follow these conjugation tables: o/a/i/e or e/i. --Barmar 08:11, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Even when ending -eo the feminine plural is -ee? Mglovesfun (talk) 16:36, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. ie see temporaneo, aereo or cutaneo --Barmar 16:39, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

scaccolare
Shouldn't this be scaccolarsi? SemperBlotto 08:37, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Ah boh.. I don't know it, sorry, I'm not a layout expert :-) but maybe 'from italian pianificare' looks better. Riciao --Barmar 21:32, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

fare una capatina
Is this more than just the sum of its parts? SemperBlotto 17:24, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * IMHO it's just a sum of parts = To make a flying visit. Ah, on the same subject, grasso nel latte simply means 'fat in the milk' (another sum of parts) while the correct translation for buttermilk is latticello (added). --Barmar 22:17, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
 * [added] And here's another strange word: treno stradale (???). tractor-trailer = maybe autoarticolato? --Barmar 22:29, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

 * OK - I've got rid of all those. SemperBlotto 08:07, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

intraducibilità
Property of being untranslatable sounds to me like it could be untranslatability. I got 816 hits for the word on Google books, so I definitely think that it could mean this. Cheers, Razorflame 21:38, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Added, thank you. --Barmar 21:40, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
 * No problems. I just made the entry for untranslatability as well.  Cheers, Razorflame 21:42, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

corrercene
Have I got that right? SemperBlotto 22:37, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
 * The translation is fine, but IMHO it is only third-person singular only; I've never heard other forms and they sound very strange. --Barmar 06:37, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
 * OK - I've commented out the conjugation. SemperBlotto 08:02, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

tutti quanti
Does these deserve an Italian entry? I'm sure I've seen it used many times. SemperBlotto 20:31, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes. It has also a feminine form tutte quante. Ciao --Barmar 06:48, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Does it just refer to people, rather than things? I've always mentally translated it as all and sundry:. SemperBlotto 08:09, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It usually refers to people but can also refer to things. For example I've found these in Google "Siamo un gruppo teatrale di 4-5 giovani promettenti. Abbiamo già fatto tre spettacoli,tutti quanti molto spassosi e da ridere" or "Esordisce a quarant'anni nella prosa, e in dieci anni, dal '93 al 2003 scrive dieci libri, tutti quanti geniali, bizzarri" or "Si tratta di rischi tutti quanti reali, tutti quanti effettivi, di cui è giusto preoccuparsi.". All and sundry is a correct translation of it, but also all, everyone and so on. --Barmar 13:13, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

zeranta
I just stumbled on this word. Have I got it right? Gender? Plural? (not in any dictionary) SemperBlotto 13:25, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Buongiorno. I've never heard it, but for me it is masculine, like quaranta, cinquanta, etc. --Barmar 05:47, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

obliterazione
Can you double-check and add any additional senses that I might have missed on this entry? Thanks, Razorflame 14:15, 29 March 2010 (UTC)
 * It looks fine; I've just added a cat (medicine). Ciao --Barmar 12:17, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

cosà
How is this related to così? Does it mean "like that"?
 * Hi there. It is an adverb only used in three compound adverbs 'così e cosà' (definitely the most popular), 'né così né cosà' and 'così cosà'. For their meaning please give a look at this . --Barmar 13:32, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

tidale and ineffettivo
Hi there. Could you have a look at these two please.
 * tidale: seems very rare - I was wondering if it has been copied from the English. I can't think of an adjective derived from marea: though.
 * ineffettivo: seems less unusual, though it isn't in any of my dictionaries. Is the translation OK (the term effettivo: has several meanings).

Cheers. SemperBlotto 07:40, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * They're rare words, but to me they look fine, tidale has also a Wikipedia entry Isola tidale. Ciao --Barmar 13:15, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Some translation requests
Do you know the translations in Italian of these words:

Thanks, Razorflame 13:35, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * veinless without veins (of an animal)
 * Hi there. Mhhhhhhhhhh, I could not think of a single word term, IMHO in Italian you need to use a two-or-three word phrase like 'privo di vene', 'senza vene' or something like that. --Barmar 13:42, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * By the way, could intransitabile mean unnegotiable (of a path)? Razorflame 13:44, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, if negotiable means transitabile, unnegotiable could mean intransitabile. But I'm not 100% sure. --Barmar 13:54, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll ask Semper. Razorflame 15:54, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok :-) --Barmar 13:54, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

vedersela
I have finally gotten around to adding a conjugation table to this verb. Could you check that I have the correct imperatives, and could you please advise on the gerund(s) and participles (just too confusing). SemperBlotto 17:23, 17 April 2010 (UTC) entrarci: infinitive is entrarci not entrarsi; then I would not link the present participle because is definitely not in use but also the present participle entratoci and all imperative forms sound odd.. so personally I would not link them too. Ciao e buona serata --Barmar 20:24, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Ditto - entrarci
 * Well let's see. In general vedersela follows the same conjugation table of cavarsela. Imperatives are correct. The rest is tricky for me too. First of all I would exclude veggendo and veggente that are obsolete (only Dante Alighieri would say something like veggentesela :-O). So gerund would be vedendosela, mela etc., present participle vedentesela mela cela etc<-not linked like in cavarsela, past participles vista, veduta, vistasela (mela tela..), vedutesela (mela tela..).

Citations:VL
Citations:VL includes just the link to a citation, as it's in Italian and I don't know what part of it precisely should be included in the citations page, how to translate it into English, or, even, how to refer to the work and its author. Can you please help? —msh210℠ 15:45, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * I've fixed some typos. IMHO "La Psiche. Dramma musicale di Franco di Poggio. Cantato in Lucca nell'anno MDCVL." means 'La psiche'<-title of the work (= The Psyche) and then "Music drama by Franco di Poggio. Singed in Lucca in the year 1645" --Barmar 20:04, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much, but, because my request, above, was unclear, you've misunderstood my (opaque) intent. My intent was for you to examine the last link on the page [[citations:VL]], which is to Google Books, to a citation of undefined: that appears in Italian, and to convert that, if you would, to a proper citation on the citations page. (As to the Sonneck citation, I think I'll revert you, since any typos that were there were his and the policy is to keep typos in citation texts, perhaps with, rather than fix them.) Thanks again. —msh210℠ 14:58, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Dante
Hi there. I was just looking at L'Inferno on Google books.

It is full of words that we don't have. Many of them apocopic, obsolete or strange in other ways. It's a struggle to make any sense of lots of it.

Do you think it is worth adding any of them - if only because it is such a well-known work?

For instance, we could add the words used in the names of the cantos. (We already have cant, but haven't got primm, segond etc.)
 * Ciao. Ahem.. that book is not L'inferno, but a Milanese translation of it. In a word, dialect, not Italian. Here'a a true version of it  . L'Inferno (like all the Divina Commedia) is really FULL of archaic terms, I don't know if they're worthy of an entry, maybe only the most common of them if it is possible to find or create a frequency list. --Barmar 10:08, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Ah, that explains it. That version is just difficult rather than impossible! SemperBlotto 21:44, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

metterci
A new user added a different meaning to this verb (see below). I removed it as I couldn't confirm it. Any thoughts? SemperBlotto 07:25, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

1. To take time, in the sense of requiring or needing time. Used when the person or thing taking the time is indicated. Volerci is used when the person or thing taking the time is not indicated. Ci metto trenta minuti per pranzare. It takes me twenty minutes to have lunch. Conjugation''': Similar to volerci. Ciao.
 * Looks correct to me (I've just fixed a typo above). metterci means to take, to take time (for doing something). Here's another example taken from here . Ci hanno messo 3 ore per finire il compito "It took them 3 hours to finish the homework" Here's the conjugation table

Thanks - updated (you had inf- instead of inf=). SemperBlotto 11:23, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

Just letting you know of this surprisingly contentious vote. Input from more Wiktionarians such as yourself would be much appreciated. Thanks. – Krun 09:31, 22 May 2010 (UTC)

gugulare
Is this variant OK? SemperBlotto 18:29, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * No, IMHO it is just a misspelling of googlare. Probably guglare is fine instead. Ciao --Barmar 05:34, 25 May 2010 (UTC)

farfuglio
Apart from the nasty formatting, can you check the latest update to this entry please. SemperBlotto 10:26, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
 * I've never heard it and I've only found this where farfuglio is given as a synonym of balbettamento, balbettio and tartagliamento. So it's possible it could also mean unintelligible speech. --Barmar 20:04, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

acquacotta
Another of your famous Tuscan soups. But I'm not sure of the plural. Is it more often two words? SemperBlotto 14:35, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah the acquacotta.. I've eated it in Maremma and... yummyyyyyyyyyy! IMHO the plural is acquecotte (acquacotte sounds bad). Ciao --Barmar 06:22, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

incestuale
Google hits for this also seem to have a noun sense - but I can't decipher what looks like "psychobabble". SemperBlotto 17:35, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
 * This stuff is unintellegible for me too. If you want to try again here's an explanatory (??? :-) link --Barmar 20:50, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Just as impossible in English - I think I'll ignore it. SemperBlotto 21:10, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

muoino
See, as an example. I seems to be part of morire: but isn't in any conjugation table I can find. SemperBlotto 09:51, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It's just a misspelling of muoiono. --Barmar 20:39, 7 June 2010 (UTC)

acchiappatutto
Looks like it should be translated as catchall:, but it doesn't seem to be used that way. I can't quite figure out a definition. SemperBlotto 11:29, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
 * And what about all-conquering as in pigliatutto? --Barmar 20:35, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

giudeo
The definition line now reads "Jew; Jew (female), Jewess". Is this word in fact used for Jewesses? Is it only used for Jewesses? If it's (as I suspect) for males only, then I think "Jew" will do (with the gender of giudeo giving away that a male is meant), or "Jew (male)" — but that's just my take. Would you mind fixing the definition line however you deem fit? Thanks much. —msh210℠ (talk) 20:12, 22 June 2010 (UTC)

Past participles of reflexive verbs
I came across the word abbattutisi, and it took me some time to realise that it was a form of abbattutosi. Does this mean that we have to have four versions of reflexive past participles as well! SemperBlotto 16:03, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
 * We already have some of them and they have been created by your bot, ie please search *tasi. Anyway most of them are not common, IMHO we could even survive :-) without them. Ciao --Barmar 06:48, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * OK - I'll create them manually, but only as I actually find them (just created formatisi) SemperBlotto 07:06, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

affascinabile
Is this reasonable? It's not in any dictionary, and most uses on the web are from blogs. The word fascinatable: does not seem to exist in English. SemperBlotto 16:27, 1 July 2010 (UTC)
 * For me it is something like 'that can be fascinated or attracted'. --Barmar 20:41, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

miglialia
I'm pretty sure that this means thousands (plural). I'm not sure if it takes a plural (of the same meaning?). SemperBlotto 21:15, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
 * No, it's a misspelling of migliaia, plural of migliaio. --Barmar 20:57, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh yes - it's my bad eyesight again! SemperBlotto 20:59, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

tartarughina
How is this different from tartaruga? SemperBlotto 21:37, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * A tartarughina is simply a small or young tartaruga. Ciao. --Barmar 05:09, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

Some format changes etc.
Hi there.

Due to changes in the system elsewhere, the verb forms generated by the bot now do not ever use #Italian. See, as an example, the changes made to monetiamo.

Also, template has been renamed to  (apparently for consistency with other languages). (I have modified and tested the bot that generates the feminine and plurals)

There may be other changes in the offing. who knows? SemperBlotto 08:53, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Well we don't have, it's not normal to run the words together. Anyway that's all the changes I wanted to make, I wanted to add a NAMESPACE parameter to all the templates, and just added some optional parameters that other templates have. They don't increase server load (AFAICT) when they have a default like  . Mglovesfun (talk) 09:01, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Now the verb forms work. If I see other strange things I'll let you know. --Barmar 05:15, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

smaka

Etymology
Traditionally considered borrowed from or  or, which is supported by its use in 17th-century texts to mean not only “smell,” but also “taste.” This may however have been a purely written usage, given the absence at the time of a term for “taste;” other writings of the period suggest that the “taste” meaning was rare or unattested among speakers. If this is so, the word might actually not be a borrowing, but an indigenous formation, from the stem of the verb (q.v.), made into a 4th-declension feminine noun. Since ancient Baltic and Iranian tribes were neighbors for some time, there may also be influence from Iranian languages (cf. 🇨🇬. Originally, had a broader meaning, “smell, odor” (in general); in the 19th century, the phrase   “good odor” still occurred. Later on it switched senses with  (which used to mean “bad smell” but is now neutral; q.v.).

Talk:poontang

The word "POONTANG" is meant to refer to post puberty girls and women, especially the vagina, clitoral part of their anatomy. Meant to be an endearing term used primarily by and amongst heterosexual males. Poontang can be used when referring to the person herself: "That is some fine poontang" or when describing the female population at a party or club: "The poontang here abounds". Or as a celebratory statement of fact:"WANG DANG SWEET POONTANG" made popular by Ted Nugent.

"Poontang" isn't an "endearing" term. Most dictionaries correctly list it as a term of derogation.

poontang
Second sense. Is the second sense a UKism or something? Also: highly dubious folk etymology from same contributor. --Connel MacKenzie 05:08, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Didn't seem at all out of the ordinary to me - men euphemistically rephrase lots of slang terms for certain female parts as the utilization of those parts (i.e. to get some [insert term here]). My sense is that the word was brought back by soldiers from Vietnam, but maybe that's just from watching too many 'Nam era war movies. bd2412 T 05:13, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
 * OED agrees more or less with both the second definition and the etymology. My experience is that the genital sense and the getting some sense are nearly indistinguishable in common speech.  Atelaes 05:19, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

 * The OED actually lists the second sense as the primary meaning.
 * 1927 J. O'HARA Sel. Lett. (1978) 25 Just between us I haven't had any poon-tang since I was in Germany.
 * --Ptcamn 07:02, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

 * Just to be pedantic, um, no. #1) Thank God we are not the OED, #2) that is the 1st meaning use figuratively, not the second nonsense definition.  That is, J. O'HARA's selected letter is talking about getting some pussy not something obtuse like building a relationship, nor gay sex, nor getting a blow job...  --Connel MacKenzie 14:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

 * The second sense isn't about a relationship, but about sexual relations, which in the U.S. is a formal/euphemistic way of saying "sex". As it turns out, different people feel differently about what constitutes sex; after the Clinton scandals, some polling organization found that older people tended to consider oral sex a kind of sex, while younger people did not. —RuakhTALK 15:47, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

 * See also Ted Nugent:
 * Wang Dang Sweet Poontang
 * Wang dang, what a sweet poontang
 * a shakin' my thang as a rang-a-dang-dang in the bell
 * Appears to me that ol' Ted is using the term to refer to the woman herself. bd2412 T 15:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

 * We're well out of my area of having-a-clue here, but a Web search gives the second line of that song as "She lookin' so clean, especi'lly down in between; what I like", which makes it sound like he is indeed referring to her nether region. BTW, if it's particularly common for poontang to be used metaphorically in reference to sex, then I think that bears some kind of note, even if it's not a fully separate sense. —RuakhTALK 16:55, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

This entry has the word disputed' in bold in the etymology section. Is there a template (and category) for disputed etymologies that should be used instead? RJFJR 15:09, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
 * If you could fix that error for me, I'd appreciate it. However, my dipute question is perhaps the wrong label for the entry, anyway.  --Connel MacKenzie 17:33, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

 * For what it's worth, I've heard this word used in the sense in question in everyday conversations. I'd point out there is a similar phenomenon with pussy: people say "I'm going to get some pussy" to mean "I'm going to have sex with a woman", and this is probably related to the sense in question of poontang.  *Signed Language Lover*

RFV passed. (Not cited, but it seems like everyone agrees that this use exists and is clearly widespread. I've rewritten the sense a bit in a way that hopefully Connel will be O.K. with.) —RuakhTALK 18:45, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Citation and sourcing

 * Could someone point me towards a page telling me how best to cite or source the etymology here (and elsewhere) please? --Kylemew 21:44, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

The whole world does not begin and end in the USA. I heard this term in use by WWII veterans who had fought in the far East and this preceeded the Vietnam War. It is entirely possible that this term due to its roots in the French language came back to the UK and the USA after the Great War of 1914-18. USA was late to the party in both world wars???? Lots of bastardised French came back from the trenches after WWI.
