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 RDBury, thanks for the overhaul of the entry. Great work. I would only suggest to change the usex under 2. In this instance I would expext nehmen with a prefix (ab-, weg-). As far as I can see, ditransitive nehmen alone is mainly used with abstract nouns as in jmdm. den Mut/die Angst/die Möglichkeit, etwas zu tun,/den Wind aus den Segeln nehmen. So perhaps something like Die Niederlage nahm der Mannschaft den Mut. would be better. What do you think? --Akletos (talk) 18:31, 8 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
- Thank you. I'm not a native speaker so, even though I take pains to avoid it, sometimes I do miss subtleties in usage such as this. What you're saying makes sense, if it's a concrete noun then it must be going in some direction in the transfer, so why not add the corresponding prefix? Of course finding the right German phrase is only half the job since it also has to be translated into idiomatic English. You'd think that would be the easy part for me but sometimes I wonder :) --RDBury (talk) 19:04, 8 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
