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.

Templates

Hey, you can use the templets {{cot}}, {{hyper}}, {{hypo}}, {{syn}}, {{ant}}; the displaying of coordinate terms, hypernyms, synonyms, etc. in the form of headings is deprecated now (as far as I am aware). Thanks. -- dictātor·mundī 15:34, 24 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Header levels

I think the part of speech only gets indented one header level under the etymology if there are multiple etymologies, not just one. That's how I have always seen it done. Equinox 00:21, 31 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

"Station" meaning "airport"?

Green's Newspeak (1984) says that station is air-crew jargon for airport. Are you familiar with this? I found one or two possible citations but wasn't sure, since station is quite a nebulous word and these were technical texts. Equinox 21:30, 7 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

I think I've seen it used like that before, but mostly in reference to "somewhere this plane can undergo maintenance" or contexts like that. Also, I'm not a pilot myself (just someone with a great deal of interest in aviation), but I'm flattered that you think highly enough of my knowledge in the aviation field to ask me for clarification here. :-) Whoop whoop pull up Bitching BettyAverted crashes 22:27, 7 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

Coincidence?

Re harveyize: to put your mind at rest: I tend to refresh and watch Recent Changes a lot while I'm editing. (Partly it convinces me that my changes really did get saved. I grew up with a computer that put files on fucking cassette tape, don't ask.) In this case I was polite enough to leave the lemma alone, bc I thought you'd be creating it next, and why should we edit-conflict... but adding the inflections boosts the super-important "entry creation count" and won't get under your feet.

Mariupol Greek

Hi, I don't think it's a good idea to create entries like φυκρύμ without first verifying that this spelling is attested: I'm pretty sure that the Greek spellings aren't one-to-one deducible from the Cyrillic spelling. Thadh (talk) 14:47, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Thadh Oh, OK. I got the impression, from reading WT:GRK-MAR TR, that the correspondence was one-to-one and mechanically-deducible; apparently I was wrong. Sorry! 😳🤦‍♀️😬 Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 14:55, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
No problem, that table is a bit misleading in that aspect. It should be read as "equivalents in transliteration" rather than one-to-one corresponding. Thadh (talk) 14:59, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Thadh Unless you have other ideas concerning the two I'd already created, I'm going to RFVN those two (on the off chance that they are the correct, attested spellings). For RFVN purposes, is Mariupol Greek a WDL or an LDL? Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 15:04, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
LDL. Thanks for taking care of it, I'll try finding some Greek-script literature. Thadh (talk) 15:07, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanx in return for the heads-up and the info; apologies for making more work for you (I'm afraid I won't be able to help with the search for attestations; I understand the Greek alphabet, but the only language I can understand is English). 🤦‍♀️ Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 15:11, 10 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Syllable breaks

Hi. We don't seem to discuss this at the IPA key, but syllabification in English is highly theory-dependent, and shouldn't be marked except when a specific distinction needs to be made. (One is mentioned in the key.) If we did, we'd run into the problem of needing to repeat each of our dialectical pronunciations for multiple proposed syllabifications. E.g. theatrical as the.atr.ic.al, the.a.tri.cal, the.at.ri.cal, the.at.ric.al, the.a.tric.al, etc. Your /ˈvæ.ʃti/ would normally be either /ˈvæʃ.ti/ or /ˈvæʃt.i/ instead, leading to fruitless debates over which is "correct". kwami (talk) 04:05, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Kwamikagami: If you really think there's a case for obliterating syllable boundaries in English pronunciation, please establish a consensus for doing so first. I would strongly disagree that English syllabification is theory-dependent; English words naturally fall apart cleanly into separate syllables, something that's inconsistent with syllabification being theory-dependent (as this would require the actual pronunciation of the word to change depending on which theory one subscribes to, which is obviously ludicrous). Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 07:43, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Your transcriptions don't match e.g. Wells, so we have a problem. AFAIK, WK does not generally mark syllable boundaries. If you want to start, then you're proposing a change in WK convention, in which case you need to establish consensus to do so. Plus you need consensus on where the syllable boundaries should be. Ambisyllabicity, for example, is a real problem. The fact that you find your own POV to be "obvious" is irrelevant: we'd need a consistent WK convention, so you'd need to convince everyone else to follow your intuition, and have an algorithm for them to be able to predict it. For instance, where to you it's obviously /ˈvæ.ʃti/, to me it's obviously /ˈvæʃ.ti/, and to Wells it's obviously /ˈvæʃt.i/. kwami (talk) 07:49, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Strong shades of the pot calling the kettle black there, given that you appear to be the only person seriously arguing that GA has any difference in vowel quality between stressed and unstressed rhotic schwas. Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 06:21, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Yes, and there's a strong consensus developing in the BP discussion that that part of our pronunciation key is wrong and needs to be changed to reflect the total lack of vowel-quality difference between stressed and unstressed rhotic schwas in GA.

{{unsupported}}

Hi - this template is essentially obsolete at this point, as the normal link templates can now handle (almost) every unsupported title. The only ones still causing trouble are those with HTML tags (i.e. < ... >), but those will be dealt with soon. Theknightwho (talk) 13:09, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Same for {{unsupportedpage}} too, actually, which is completely obsolete. The headword module categorises them in Category:Unsupported titles automatically, and it also generates the correct {{DEFAULTSORT:}}. Theknightwho (talk) 15:24, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Coptic overline

Hi. You redirected this (U+FE26) to the macron, but it's not the same diacritic and isn't covered there. It's used together with FE24 and FE25 to create a single diacritic spanning 3 or more characters; it has no meaning on its own. And it was adopted by Unicode specifically for the overstroke in Coptic, which is used to indicate abbreviations. Could you fix please? kwami (talk) 04:20, 27 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Benwing commented "it is some special diacritic used for Coptic and should not be conflated with the regular Unicode macron". kwami (talk) 05:18, 27 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

/aɪɹ/ is a valid IPA pronunciation

Dear Whoop: In an edition from spire you deleted for spire this phonetic pronunciation "/spaɪɹ/" saying "not possible in GA". However, at least the following dictionaries recognize it:

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/es/diccionario/ingles/spire https://www.dictionary.com/browse/spire https://www.wordreference.com/es/translation.asp?tranword=spire

Even in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdV7RymsiMY&t=334s says "The /aɪɹ/ is an R-colored triphthong".

In other words, words like dire, fire, hire and tire can be pronounced as one syllable.

I pretend to add this kind of pronunciations as needed. Do you agree?

t-t-t-t-terms

Do you have thoughts on how terms like pooner or shoulderhon should be categorized? Currently they're categorized as "trans slang"+"4chan slang". My inclination is to remove them from the "trans slang" category because unlike egg or gock, in my experience pooner et al. aren't used by most trans people, only a minority of people who use 4chan (they're then also used by those people when they are on twitter), so to me "4chan slang"—or perhaps a specific label/cat like "/tttt/ slang"?—seems more appropriate; however, I know my experience of what's widely vs narrowly used and my ideas of what to do about it are just one person's experience/ideas, not a complete picture. Pinging also @WordyAndNerdy if you want to share thoughts on this.
I see various of our categories do this, lump terms widely used by the group the category is about + terms only a tiny subgroup would understand. This could either be a sign Wiktionary should make more effort to diffuse terms into relevant subcategories in general (e.g., we seem to do a good job diffusing regional terms that would not be widely understood in America, like DC-hyperspecific sice, into subcategories, but then we put US military jargon into the top-level American English category even if nobody else would understand it: maybe we should also have a "US military slang" category?), or a sign I'm wrong to think it's an issue... - -sche (discuss) 02:33, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Agreed. Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty ⚧️ Averted crashes 03:01, 28 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
I generally believe cross-categorization is fine. Some terms are used by multiple communities. I attested aggy as both UK slang and AAVE. Plenty of tabletop slang (e.g. murderhobo) is also video game slang. Being used primarily by a subset of a larger community shouldn't preclude a term from higher-order categorization. US military jargon is American English – it's not used within the UK military, after all. Redemptionista and evilista are still fandom slang even though only Buffy fans use them.
My understanding is that shoulderhon etc. are used by a subset of trans folks who post on 4chan's /lgbt/ board. Which means that these terms fit under both the "transgender slang" and "4chan slang" categories. It seems these terms also see a fair amount of use on Reddit and Twitter. Readers unfamiliar with their origin might not think to look in the 4chan slang category. Cross-categorization can be helpful! That said, it might be useful to have a "/tttt/ slang"-type subcategory. I'm uncertain regarding the name. /tttt/ is an informal name for the board. But "/lgbt/ slang" would likely be confused with the broader "LGBT" label.

Pronunciation of measure

Dear Wikipeadian: In the pronunciation of measure you add the pronunciation /ˈmeɪ.ʒə/, and when it was reverted you wrote "diphthongized in NZE". However, I could not find it anywhere but I found /ˈmeʒ.ə/. I also heard a lot of Youglish videos without founding it. Could you give me a source or at least an audio with that pronunciation?
