Hello, you have come here looking for the meaning of the word

Wiktionary:Requested entries (Unknown language, Latin script) in singular and plural. Everything you need to know about the word
Wiktionary:Requested entries (Unknown language, Latin script) you have here. The definition of the word
Wiktionary:Requested entries (Unknown language, Latin script) will help you to be more precise and correct when speaking or writing your texts. Knowing the definition of
Wiktionary:Requested entries (Unknown language, Latin script), as well as those of other words, enriches your vocabulary and provides you with more and better linguistic resources.
Have an entry request? Add it to the list – but please:
- Consider creating a citations page with your evidence that the word exists instead of simply listing it here
- Think twice before adding long lists of words as they may be ignored.
- If possible provide context, usage, field of relevance, etc.
- Check the Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion if you are unsure if it belongs in the dictionary.
- If the entry already exists, but seems incomplete or incorrect, do not add it here; add a request template to the entry itself to ask someone to fix the problem, e.g.
{{rfp}}
or {{rfe}}
for pronunciation or etymology respectively.
- — Note also that such requests, like the information requested, belong on the base form of a word, not on inflected forms.
Please remove entries from this list once they have been written (i.e. the link is “live”, shown in blue, and has a section for the correct language)
There are a few things you can do to help:
- Add glosses or brief definitions.
- Add the part of speech, preferably using a standardized template.
- If you know what a word means, consider creating the entry yourself instead of using this request page.
- Please indicate the gender(s) of nouns in languages that have them.
- For inflected languages, if you see inflected forms (plurals, past tenses, superlatives, etc.) indicate the base form (singular, infinitive, absolute, etc.) of the requested term and the type of inflection used in the request.
- For words in languages that don’t use Latin script but are listed here only in their romanized form, please add the correct form in the native script.
- Don’t delete words just because you don’t know them – it may be that they are used only in certain contexts or are archaic or obsolete.
- Don’t simply replace words with what you believe is the correct form. The form here may be rare or regional. Instead add the standard form and comment that the requested form seems to be an error in your experience.

- physica ex machina Latin It was used by Adrian Stan at page 5 in Conserving Approximations in Nonequilibrium Green Function Theory (Ph.D. thesis), University of Groningen (2009), to single out a computational approach in the absence of a careful understanding of the method used and hence lacking a lucid interpretation. This syntax was translated therein as ”physics from the machine” it implied an allegorical relation with the expression ”deus ex machina” as used in Horace’s Ars Poetica. This statement is also meant to be generalized beyond its present connection to the field of physics.

- Propommern - an old placename perhaps in the area around the German/Danish frontier? — hippietrail 03:09, 3 November 2009 (UTC) (sounds like a variation of Vorpommern, or Western Pomerania, Cispomerania, or Greek Προπομερανία. Pommern is German for Pomerania, which derives from по море (or the Polish equivalent), meaning "on/along the sea"; the prefix pro- means forward, anterior, near. Pomerania is the Baltic coastal region across northern East Germany to Poland’s Gdansk, and Vorpommern, or Propommern, refers to Western Pomerania, the German part of Pomerania. —Stephen 04:04, 3 November 2009 (UTC))

- tcharkhatchi -- Arabic: night watchman? (Arabic does not have a "ch". If this is a word in some Arabic dialect, it would probably be "jarkhaji". The termination "-ji" is common in names of professions, but it presupposes a root جرخ, and that’s not Modern Standard Arabic as far as I know.). See --- Could it have something to do with جركسي ?
