Glyph origin
. The component was originally three (, representing, as seen in ), four (, representing ) or five dots (as seen in ) forming a ideogrammic representation of faeces in the oracle bone script, with four dots being the most common variant, thus representing a man defecating with faeces coming out of the backside. The Shang dynasty variants saw the ("body") component interchangeable with  ("human"); later, by the Western Zhou dynasty,  variants with four dots became the dominant and sole-surviving form, however examples from this time period also exist where the  component is mistaken for  ("tail"), as seen in. During the Warring States period, the component became corrupted into.

Shuowen Jiezi does not feature the 屎 character, however it does contain and. is listed in Shuowen as deriving from ("grass") and  ("stomach"), while  is listed as the ancient form of, however in reality this is not the case; 𡲴 is an erroneous form of the 屎 variant containing , where the tail portion of the  component is mistakenly written as. During the Zhou dynasty, 屎 was often used as a phonetic borrowing for ; moreover, during the Warring States period, the Chu script character for consisted of 屎 with an additional  (modern radical form ) added to represent the meaning of walking.

Following transition to the clerical script, a variety of alternative forms emerged: All of these variant forms failed to gain widespread usage, and eventually faded into obscurity while 屎 remained the dominant character variant.
 * The 米 component was replaced with phonetic component thus creating the variant form ;
 * Some variants added another radical to create  and ;
 * Existing variants containing the component became 𡲔 and 𡱵;
 * The body portion of also became further corrupted into, creating ;

Wiktionary:Namespace

This page lists namespaces of the English Wiktionary and how they are used.

Overview
A variety of namespaces are currently set in the English Wiktionary, which is powered by the MediaWiki software. Each namespace may hold an indefinite number of pages and serves a different purpose in organizing them.

Each namespace is identified by its own name or by a number, except one which does not have a particular name, being defined as "main" or "entry" in some places. Except for "main", the namespace of a page is always present in the beginning of its title, followed by a colon. Therefore, if a page called Appendix:Example exists, it is in the Appendix namespace and may be linked as Appendix:Example.

Subpages
If the title of a page contains a slash, it is considered a subpage of another page whose title is equal, but without, the slash and subsequent characters. For instance, Beer parlour/timeline is a subpage of Beer parlour. A subpage is expected to be subordinate of the other page.

The only exception are pages in the main namespace, as they are naturally considered independent. For example, "AC/DC" is not the subpage of page "AC" but rather an individual page. Note that "Talk:AC/DC" unexpectedly does not fit in this exception.

List of namespaces
The namespaces "main", User, Wiktionary, File, MediaWiki, Template, Help and Category represent basic functions inherent to most MediaWiki sites, so similar namespaces are likely to be found in Wiktionary's sister projects such as Wikipedia.

The namespaces Appendix, Concordance, Index, Rhymes, Transwiki, Wikisaurus (now called Thesaurus) and Citations were introduced on 28 June 2006. Most of them have purposes more directly related to building a dictionary, so they probably would not be found in other projects, but Wiktionaries in other languages may have similar namespaces. Particularly, the Transwiki system also became common in other types of project.

Each of the namespaces explained above is counterpart to one of the talk namespaces: Talk, User talk, Wiktionary talk, File talk, MediaWiki talk, Template talk, Help talk, Category talk, Appendix talk, Concordance talk, Index talk, Rhymes talk, Transwiki talk, Thesaurus talk and Citations talk. They serve as spaces for conversations about the current non-talk page. For instance, users may talk about Wiktionary:Namespace at Wiktionary talk:Namespace. However, there are a few generic discussion rooms which may be preferred in place of discussing on separate talk pages.

Here is a table with all current namespaces of the English Wiktionary and their descriptions. The items in the "Name" column are linked to a list of all pages in the respective namespace.

Former namespaces
The gaps in namespace numbering correspond to namespaces that were removed from Wiktionary. These are:
 * Concordance: (102) and Concordance talk: (103)
 * This namespace held listings of words from particular references, for example, the Bible. This was intended as a way to find and fill gaps in our coverage, but it never really took off.
 * Some concordances still exist in the Appendix (see Category:Concordances) and some users' subpages.
 * Removal discussed at RFDO, see Wiktionary talk:Concordances
 * Index: (104) and Index talk: (105)
 * This namespace was intended to hold bot-generated alphabetical indexes of the entries in every language, but the indexes were rarely consulted or updated in practice.
 * Largely superseded by lemma categories.
 * Removal voted on: Votes/2021-07/Deleting the Index
 * WT: (112) and WT talk: (113)
 * Replaced by aliasing the "WT:" prefix to the Wiktionary: namespace

Aliases
There are several namespace aliases. They are case-insensitive.

Pseudo-namespaces
Pseudo namespaces are sets of pages that use the colon to set them off from other pages but without the full namespace support of MediaWiki software. All of the current pseudo namespaces are not in the main namespace so they are effectively sub-namespaces. Current pseudo namespaces include: thesaurus topic categories
 * Category: (e.g. Category:es:Foods) – topic categories
 * Category:Thesaurus (e.g. Category:Thesaurus:Power, Category:Thesaurus:en:Power) –
 * Template:list (e.g. Template:list:countries of Africa) – list templates for use in "see also" sections
 * Template:R (e.g. Template:R:DWDS, Template:R:gsw:SI) – reference templates, see Category:Reference templates by language)
 * Template:RQ (e.g. Template:RQ:Shakespeare Macbeth) – templates for quoting prominent works of literature etc., see Category:Quotation templates by language)
 * Template:U: (e.g. Template:U:en:equal) – usage note templates

Interwiki links
Any wiki link prefaced by one of the keywords below link to external Wikimedia sites, as indicated. Each external site has its own set of namespaces which can also be included in the link. In addition, wikis in different languages exist. See below for further details.

From other Wikimedia sites link to Wiktionary by using the wikt: or wiktionary: prefix.

* Other Wikimedia prefixes:, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,.

''The long form doesn't work within the same project. The shortcut works everywhere. (That is the intention; currently, it does not work on all projects'').

To get to another language, you might use nl:Overleg:Hoofdpagina]]. Note: this requires a preceding colon to display as a normal link, otherwise it will appear in the left-most column under “Other languages.”

Etymology 1
From, from and , both from , from , from , see. Merged with and reinforced by, from and , from , , from.

Prefix

 * 1)  Not, the negation of the root word (a quality).
 * is a person who is not aboriginal, is a substance that is not abrasive,  is not abstract
 * 1)  Absence, the absence of the root (a quantity).
 * is absence of accountability, is lack of acceleration,  is the absence of action; failure to act
 * 1)  Avoiding an action.
 * is the practice of avoiding mental constructs during daily life, is a neglect or refusal to accept,  is tending to avoid accumulation
 * 1)  Neutral in quality.
 * is a spoken accent that is neutral and undistinctive; is having the centromere near the middle, and thus having roughly equal-sized arms;  is an unaccented beat or syllable, as in music or poetry

 * 1)  Neutral in quality.
 * is a spoken accent that is neutral and undistinctive; is having the centromere near the middle, and thus having roughly equal-sized arms;  is an unaccented beat or syllable, as in music or poetry

Usage notes

 * may be attached to nouns, adjectives , adverbs , or—infrequently—even verbs.
 * may be joined to a word with a hyphen, standard in British usage as evidenced by OED's typically including only the hyphenated forms, but some OED entries are spelled without hyphen only. In American usage, is often joined without a hyphen. (For example,  is relatively common, but, referring to a primarily British sport, is rare.) Some  words rarely or never use a hyphen (such as ). By contrast,  is almost always spelled without a hyphen. GPO manual item 6.29. recommends to spell non- prefixed words without a hyphen unless an overriding consideration applies.
 * For combinations with capitalized words such as proper nouns and some adjectives, hyphen is almost always used, e.g. or . This matches GPO manual recommendation.
 * Semantically, suggests objective quality and logical opposition (hence ungradable), whereas  suggests subjective quality and polar/diametric opposition (often gradable).
 * Meaning "not" in phrases taken from Latin and some other languages, is a separate word and is not hyphenated: non compos mentis, persona non grata.
 * As is a living and highly productive prefix, the list of words having the prefix  is practically unlimited: Wiktionary currently has over 9000 such word forms. It is particularly common in the sciences.

 * notes that the Middle Chinese form is irregular based on evidence from  rimes.
 * Based on velar contacts in the same phonetic series, e.g., and ,  and  reconstruct the word with a velar initial , which undergoes irregular palatalization in the development to Middle Chinese.
 * Based on other characters in the same phonetic series, e.g. and, , and later, , reconstructs 川 with a lateral initial and suggests that only a *t- prefix would account for the Middle Chinese initial.

relates this word to 🇨🇬, whence, , 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬. notes that this does not account for the *-n coda.

instead compares it to 🇨🇬, whence, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬; this depends on a reconstruction with a dental initial and requires positing an *‑n suffix not present in Tibeto-Burman languages.
