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.
- You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

What's going on with this? Vininn126 (talk) 06:54, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
- królik doświadczalny is basically noun + adjective, so both elements need to be declined. I changed the declension table template and now it matches the correct forms, although I'm new to declension templates, so I apologize if I used the wrong one. JimiY☽ru 07:08, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Both elements are declined, and why would it decline like an inanimate noun? Vininn126 (talk) 07:12, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
- If a polish noun uses singular forms in the plural then it's not declined.
- It's fine, I figured it out. The first template argument should be
m-an instead of m-anml, so it was a technical error. JimiY☽ru 07:32, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Ah yes, this is because there is a new declension module in the works and not everything has been finished yet. Vininn126 (talk) 07:37, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
- I see. Like I said, I'm new to wiki templates and more mistakes on my end might happen in the future, so please let me know if you find errors in my editions that are strictly technical. The inflection forms after my edit are 100% correct now. Cheers JimiY☽ru 07:45, 20 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Please see their respective Glossary entries as well as Wiktionary:Obsolete_and_archaic_terms. A lot of terms from Doroszewski are better marked as obsolete. Vininn126 (talk) 08:31, 15 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Some of theses are really przekombinowane, like zrozpaczony. Also please keep in mind formatting, like brąz. Finally, you might want to consider using a different etymological dictionary than Bruckner. Bańkowski isn't always better, but is better in more situations than Bruckner.

- For loanwords, you might want to check out
{{R:pl:WSWO}} and {{R:pl:USJP}}. Vininn126 (talk) 08:34, 16 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Checking NKJP, I cannot find a single instance of plural usage. Please keep that in mind. Vininn126 (talk) 10:13, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Hi; when you add IPA pronunciation, please add it as a list item, like this:
* {{IPA|lt|/blablabla/}}
Instead of this:
{{IPA|lt|/blablabla/}}

- An oversight on my part. Thank you for pointing it out. JimiY☽ru 08:52, 7 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Please check if a form is attested in things like SSp before adding it. That form is entirely unattested and unetymological. Even in the source you mentioned it's a reconstruction, and there's no need to list that form in this case. Vininn126 (talk) 14:15, 26 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
I believe it was just a small oversight on your part, but it's still good to bring it to your attention. I don't understand Polish as well as you do, but from what I could translate, the "real" form of the Belarusian word is лу́ста (see Skarnik), not лу́ст, I think you may have looked a little too quickly because the page you listed was also wrong, and the accent pattern too 😅 Anatolijs LTV (talk) 10:45, 23 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
- @JimiYoru Būkite atsargesni, žodis „varža“ turi dvi skirtingas etimologijas :/ Anatolijs LTV (talk) 14:23, 24 April 2025 (UTC)Reply
- @Anatolijs LTV Hello and thank you for your message. A couple things to consider:
- I avoid adding phonemic IPA notation to my entries (only phonetic, between two slash marks) because I'm not prominent enough in Lithuanian IPA. From what I know, no universal standard has been established for how phonemic transcriptions work in Lithuanian. I prefer adding a general outline on the pronunciation. You, however, are free to add proper phonemic notations as a native speaker.
- According to Smoczyński's SEJL, лу́ст (masc) is a dialectal variant of лу́ста (fem). I included the masculine because masc noun coming from fem noun may not make sense etymologically. I also trusted Smoczyński with the accent paradigm he provided. I guess I forgot to verify it with lkz.lt.
- I allowed myself to omit the borrowing etymology because varža in all of its senses comes ultimately from one and the same Proto-Indo-European root. You may add the other etymology if you have the time.
- I have basic practical knowledge of Lithuanian. On my user talk page, please use English instead.

Heads up, inflections use a different category (noun form, not noun) and you don't need to provide the etymology template unless a lemma and non-lemma are on the same page within a language. You might want to consider turning on the acceleration gadget in your preferences. Vininn126 (talk) 08:21, 22 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
- @Vininn126 I provide etymologies if they're requested. I think it's good ethics. And which gadget do you have in mind? Accelerated inflection forms are turned on, but don't work for all languages and PoS. JimiY☽ru 04:19, 27 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
- Sure, but with nonlemmas it's generally obvious and somewhat unnecessary. It works mostly for languages with it set up as well. Vininn126 (talk) 06:26, 27 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
Hi, sorry for asking, I just saw you trying to add accel mode. Just curious, why is accel mode not available yet in Lithuanian? Chihunglu83 (talk) 11:33, 23 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
- Hello. They're available, just haven't been coded in the templates yet. If you're asking why they're not visible, it's because I reverted my changes afterwards. My edit was a test. I'll take care of it and add the proper accel parameters shortly, and I'll ensure that everything works. Regards JimiY☽ru 04:28, 24 June 2025 (UTC)Reply
