Welcome Message
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 (

Hello! Great work! Please see my edit here: , and change it if you don't agree. THANKS! --Geographyinitiative (talk) 13:34, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
- @Geographyinitiative Agree with your edit. There are many Ahom words that are related to Chinese derived words like yin-yang and Tian. I'll try to add them. KhiLanTzi (talk) 13:45, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi - please stop marking all of your edits as minor. You should only mark edits which make tiny changes as minor. Thanks. Theknightwho (talk) 14:56, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
- @Theknightwho I edit using a mobile web browser , I haven't seen any option to mark it as minor or unmark it, I edit the Assamese Wikipedia too and there is an option in Assamese Wikipedia in mobile web browser. KhiLanTzi (talk) 17:32, 26 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
I saw you create Ahom entries with π° (U+11730) in place of circle wa; it is the zero, not wa. (As you see 0 in the transcription.) The right glyph is π (U+1171A), or Unicode calls the alternate ba. Please consider using the right glyph in your entries.
Also, you may notice π (ba) at the end of a syllable representing wa. That's because ba and wa share the same letter, as you can see a lot in http://sealang.net/ahom/ . The circle π (wa) was invented in the later time, making a word look like Shan or Phake. I firstly regard sealang's spelling as the main entry, because it came directly from palm books, and then the circle wa will be alternative spellings. I will write this way. Phake, Shan and Ahom spell different in some words, due to sealang. Please be careful. Octahedron80 (talk) 09:59, 9 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
- @Octahedron80 Sorry for late reply. We the Ahom guys who already know or newly learning Ahom language generally use (π° U+11730 + π« U+1172B) for π°π« in the ending in words like ππ°π« on digital platforms. You can search ππ°π« in Google and check the Non wiki usage of π°π« including Social Media; we use (π° U+11730 + π« U+1172B) widely for now. The π°π« we use is not new and very historical you can check it on Barua 1930 page 52 which is based on original Ahom manuscript. My device don't support "Alternate Ba π (U+1171A)" it's showing a box and I don't have much information about it. Alternate Ba π (U+1171A) as you said
"...invented in the later time making a word look like Shan or Phake..."
. If you think we need to use Alternate Ba π (U+1171A) instead of π°π« (π° U+11730 + π« U+1172B) please show some available online usage; till then let's use the commonly used π°π« and rely on available usage. You can check Template:R:Borua1920 page 176 for ππ’π°π« which I added earlier for cat. Do you have any dictionary reference that stated ππ’ππ« is cat. If we need to write Bib I'll write it as ππ’ππ«! I haven't seen Alternate Ba π (U+1171A) being used widely on digital platforms and I entered with widely used (π° U+11730 + π« U+1172B). KhiLanTzi (talk) 04:04, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
- Since the alternate ba is added in Unicode version 11.0 (June 2018)β , media that are released before that used the zero just because it is similar βcircleβ to the alternate ba. They are not the same type of glyph; ba is a letter but zero is a number and they should not be mixed up, in other word, wrong usage. (We can make redirects then.) About ππ’ππ«, you can just look for βcatβ in http://sealang.net/ahom/ β‘ (I can't make direct entry of it). The entry show ππ’ππ« (bib) but it reads as /biu/, that means π represent both ba and wa, at least in that period. Modern Ahom (now-using Ahom) might spell different from palm books so I have the option to put in the alternative forms, like 'miu' you have. Additionally, If you want to have newer version of font with full glyphs, go to download Noto Serif Ahom. (Wiktionary already supports the font.) BabelMap is also useful to see what glyphs are in the font. --Octahedron80 (talk) 05:44, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
- β There are also new letters ππππππ
π (U+11740-U+11746) that are added in Unicode version 14.0 (September 2021). These are meant to fill up Indian loanwords or to write mantras I guess.
- β‘References to the 18th Century Ahom-Assamese Lexicon known as the Bar Amra.
- By the way, if you have some Modern Ahom dictionaries more than sealang or Borua, I might consider make the modern forms as main entry instead (?). --Octahedron80 (talk) 06:03, 18 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
