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.

{{slang|lang=fr}} not {{slang}} in french entries for the right categories please!!
I am sure it can be created, but it doesn't seem to be used other than as a sum of parts.Lucifer 02:15, 22 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
Hi,
You left the entry in a bad state, please fix. --Anatoli (обсудить) 07:49, 17 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
Hi there. I was just struggling to understand this verb. Does it also mean "to share out the booty (from a crime etc)"? SemperBlotto (talk) 10:22, 23 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
- Maybe. I think that definition you give is outdated or something. The kids today use se fader to mean to get stuck with an unpleasnant task,. --Itkilledthecat (talk) 11:45, 23 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
RE:Hi Lucifer. Thanks again for your entries, it is always a pleasure to read them. Of your recent Spanish entries, culón is my favourite. To let you know, we call this type of word an augmentative. solterón, cabezón and mujerona are other good examples of augmentatives in Spanish. Keep on rocking, dude!
LOL your welcome, are you rockpilot? What is the difference between superlative and augmentative I used augmentative at first but then switched to superlative cause it seemed more appropriate but I am not sure.Lucifer (talk) 22:11, 23 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the mess you left behind. Jamesjiao → T ◊ C 22:22, 26 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
