Welcome

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki-editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

  • Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
  • Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
  • Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; the most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
  • If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
  • If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
  • Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
  • You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! —Justin (koavf)TCM 22:49, 20 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for all the links! They will be useful. But I have a question. How do I put links from another sites on my user page? I tried (to justify a correction I'm currently making) but the spam filter blocked them. Thank you in advance (I might be busy later and don't reply or see the answer).

Without looking at the actual specifics, if you are here for x days and make y edits, these restrictions will just automatically be lifted. If you really need it done immediately, let me know. —Justin (koavf)TCM 20:15, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for replying! I don't need them now, their purpose is just to show why I corrected a common mistake. Jão das Couves (talk) 20:17, 21 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Joining Discord

I hope you are well. MedK and others are inviting you to join our Discord server about Wiktionary: https://discord.gg/SQTBBAf5. Thalyson2019 (talk) 18:19, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Oh sorry, I don't have Discord. But thank y'all for the invite, I really appreciate :). Hope you're also well! Amanyn (talk) 20:02, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
You can always make an account btw js! It'd be great to have you and it doesn't take too long to make an account.
The discord Thalyson gave you is one for the entire Wiktionary community. There's another one — which I believe might be of more interest to you — where we're hosting discussions about Old Galician-Portuguese; since we (Thalyson, me, Strid, you and Froaringus) are the only OGP editors, it's easier to talk about it 'in real time' as opposed to Wiktionary's forum-esque manner, especially since the language's structure is, like, seriously lacking currently — there are so many aspects that need discussing and, while in a Discord group we could solve all of them in a single day should everyone be there, on Wiktionary it'd take multiple different discussion topics...
So for these and a few other reasons (todos falamos português!), I think it'd actually be easier for you too if you were there!
...Let me (MedK1 (talkcontribs)) know if you decide to make an account; I can shoot you a friend request and add you to the group DM. 2804:1B0:1903:CDA7:9CBE:1E1D:6376:EE6C 21:56, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Alright, I'll let you know if I create an account. Have a good day! Amanyn (talk) 11:57, 20 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Latin -cŭl-

Hi Amanyn,

The loss of Latin ŭ in this context is essentially regular in the evolution to Romance; ovicula and peduculus are pretty typical cases.

We don't need to make reconstructions for regular sound changes; our etymology for Spanish hijo for instance doesn't say "from a Vulgar Latin *filyu, from Latin fīlium", as it is unnecessary. Nicodene (talk) 21:29, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Nicodene Alright, thank you. Then may I also remove the *apicla from the Asturian entry? Amanyn (talk) 14:27, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Amanyn I'll clean up the entries in a moment. Nicodene (talk) 14:33, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Nicodene I just removed *apicla from abelha, but alright, thank you! Amanyn (talk) 14:35, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Nicodene Sorry to be bothering you, but do you have any sources (such as Wikipedia pages) about the evolution from Latin to the Romance languages? I like to see how they evolve. Amanyn (talk) 18:50, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
If it's sound-changes you're interested in, I highly recommend Lausberg's classic monograph. It's in German, but a Spanish translation is available for free on LibGen (search for "Lausberg Lingüística Románica fonética"). Nicodene (talk) 19:41, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Nicodene Thank you! Amanyn (talk) 19:42, 31 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
