Talk:apple of someone's eye

Tea room discussion
I wonder if we could reach a consensus? All entries should be either someone's or somebody's, but not both, or mixed at random. I personally vote now for someone's, and eliminate (move) all the somebody's entries. -- A LGRIF  talk 15:06, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Re-reading this... I meant to say "one's" This entry should be redirected the other way, shouldn't it? If I enter apple of one's eye it redirects to the "somebody's" entry. What exactly is the consensus? -- A LGRIF  talk 11:52, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I think there might be a meaningful difference between "one's" and either of the others in some uses in our headwords. There are cases where "one's" makes it clear that there is a restriction on the possessive used in the expression. For example, we would not substitute "mind someone's manners" for "mind one's manners" in the normal idiomatic use of that expression. "Someone's" doesn't put the appropriate limit on the pronoun: that minder is minding his own manners. I would argue that it is misleading to imply the restriction on the possessive in "apple of someone's eye". "X is the apple of Y's eye" with the choice of X or Y implying no grammatical restriction on the other. DCDuring TALK 12:45, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Rfv-sense: "The eyeball. in Ch1908 as "apple of the eye"" DTLHS (talk) 03:47, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

 * (Curiously I also recently found a Caribbean sense of eyeball that means the figurative sense of "apple of the eye", i.e. a favourite.) Equinox ◑ 19:05, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
 * This argues that the use of the phrase in Deuteronomy actually refers to the pupil, which is close....And again here it is argued that the apple of the eye is the pupil. Kiwima (talk) 20:50, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
 * A complication is that "apple of the eye" is currently a redirect to "apple of someone's eye"; the former clearly has a sense referring to the pupil and/or iris, the latter probably doesn't. The sense "pupil" is or seems used here:  . Less clear:     ←₰-→  Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk)  11:05, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
 * The Hebrew is definitely the pupil (apparently diminutive of ) and/or . Both refer to the idea of a small person, which should be familiar from the etymology of pupil. The apple of the eye metaphor is of a smaller ball within the eyeball, with a couple of references talking like eyeball might sometimes have referred to the pupil, rather than the whole eye- but those are mentions. They do, however, make make things much more ambiguous. Chuck Entz (talk) 14:48, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Talk:heptathlon

Tea room discussion
Hi, I'm new to editing here, and I know the rules here aren't the same as for Wikipedia, so I thought I'd post this here before I do anything with the entry. Anyway, the definition is "an athletic contest comprising seven events; normally for women". Now, by looking at the roots of the word, I'm sure the first clause is correct. However the second clause, "normally for women", raised an eyebrow. Clicking on the link to the Wikipedia article will show that there are existing heptathlons for both men and women. So isn't this a bit misleading? — CF84 23:25, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Reading through Heptathlon, it sounds like women more commonly do heptathlons, while men more commonly do decathlons. Decathlon makes an even stronger claim, stating simply, “The decathlon is contested by male athletes, while female athletes contest the Heptathlon.” Our current definition sounds reasonable to me. —Ruakh TALK 00:49, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Well, judging from the linked articles: men do decathlon and women do heptathlon -- outdoors. Indoors, do men compete in heptathlon, while women do pentathlon (though I see nothing which claims that women never competes in heptathlon indoors). And finally, "In recent years some women's decathlon competitions have been conducted" (though it isn't standard discipline in major competitions) - and iaaf recognizes outdoor's world records by male and female decathletes, but not by male heptathletes, and for indoors: only male heptathletes and female pentathletes. \Mike 15:04, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Yes; or, to boil it down to its essence, women more commonly do heptathlons, while men more commonly do decathlons. (Keep in mind that all of these are primarily done outdoors. There do exist indoor heptathlons, which are almost exclusively done by men, but they're not nearly as common, in either occurrence or discussion, as the outdoor ones, which are almost exclusively done by women.) Would it be better if we replaced “normally” with “usually” or “most commonly”? —Ruakh TALK 16:27, 17 August 2008 (UTC)

Okay, this word is set for WOTD on August 27, and I'm a bit iffy with it. Currently it has two meanings, only one is properly attested in dictionaries (#2). However, I has a damnably hard time finding good quotes for it, and it is clearly a "repeated nonce" to me, i.e. a word that many people over the years have coined separately without believeing there "existed" the term. THe first meaning is the only one that is truly in use (indeed it compeltely drown the "member of a subculture" meaning). There was a third meaning that had no use whatsoever I could find ("underground animals", though "A person or animal that spends a lot of time underground" is a sum-of-parts meaning to me).

Basically, I'm wondering if I should leave the second definition in because I'm iffy with it, having added quotes for all the August WOTD. Circeus 16:49, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * The definition is pretty obvious, so maybe quotes aren't so necessary. --Jackofclubs 16:12, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Talk:mouton enragé

Tea room discussion
Of our three quotations, one is saying that a person is like a mouton enragé (italicized), and another is saying that a person might remind us of a mouton enragé (italicized); and for good measure, the headword is italicized in the third quotation as well. Overall, it seems like mouton enragé doesn't actually mean “A normally peaceful person who has become suddenly and uncharacteristically angry”, but rather, “.”

However, we only have three quotations, so it's possible that they're not very representative. Does anyone know better?

—Ruakh TALK 18:04, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * This source says it has been adopted into English.  It's also used attributively in Harper's New Monthly Magazine:
 * 1896 — William Black, "Briseis", chapter V, Harper's Magazine, vol. XCII, p.231
 * And meanwhile young Gordon, who had been eying with a vague curiosity this mouton-enragé sort of creature, and who was not much interested in his shop-talk, had been inwardly saying to himself "My fat friend, it would do you a world of good if you were made to crawl six miles up the Corrieara burn with a rifle in your hand. And perhaps two or three days starvation wouldn't do you much harm either."
 * I also find this 1826 quote:
 * 1826 — James S. Buckingham (e.d), "Summary of the latest intelligence from India and other countries of the East", The Oriental Herald and Journal of General Literature, vol. 9, p 343.
 * But our " mouton enragé " pursues a different course. He rushes blindfolded into a Burmese war, ana creeps with the utmost circumspection to the siege of Bhurtpore.
 * It is placed in quotes, not italics, but no explanation is given for the meaning. This predates the 1829 French article "Le Mouton Enragé" often cited as introducing the word into English; it seems that article merely popularized the term.
 * I also find:
 * 1857 — George Gilfillan, Galleries of Literary Portraits, page 270
 * This mildness of tone comports with his character (a man of timid and gentale temper, foaming and thundering in the pulpit, may well remind us, as well as the French, of a mouton enragé)
 * So the term has been used in English contexts for a long time, even if often italicized. --EncycloPetey 18:46, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * For the record, it seems the nickname was originally attributed to Nicolas de Condorcet. Circeus 19:27, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that it's not used in English contexts; and I have no problem with this sort of word appearing under an ==English== header provided everything is made clear. My question is entirely about the meaning of the term; in most of the cites, it seems to mean not "a person who blah-blah-blahs", but rather "[French] an angry sheep [used in similes and metaphors for people who blah-blah-blah]". It's like how "sore thumb" doesn't mean "someone who sticks out"; rather, it's a stock example of something that sticks out, so that we tend to say that someone sticks out "like a sore thumb". (Do you see what I mean?) So I think the definition needs to be rewritten a bit. —Ruakh TALK 23:06, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I'd say the quotations I've cited above support the existing definition. That's not to say that some of the other quotes may require the definition to be expanded or another sense added, but the first two at least mean a normally quiet person and not a sheep. --EncycloPetey 23:09, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I'm not so sure. I don't think that in the first quotation it does mean a kind of person, else they would have written "mouton enragé" instead of "mouton-enragé sort of creature". (They're taking advantage of English's lax rules for attributive nominals.) The second quotation does seem to mean a kind of person, but the use of quotation marks, and the paucity of other such quotations, makes me wonder if this is a stock metaphor — if the quotation is metaphorically comparing the character to an angry sheep, using the stock phrase "mouton enragé" that is used in this comparison, rather than actually saying that the character is a "mouton enragé [which is a kind of person]". —Ruakh TALK 23:59, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The citation from The Economist makes it clear that mouton enragé means a kind of person. Also, please can someone find a reference for this being Nicolas de Condorcet's nickname and put in the References section? Thanks, Harris Morgan 19:09, 28 August 2008 (UTC).
 * Added a reference that mention the nicknames and gives its origin in comment notes. It's in French, though. The expression has little currency in modern French. Far as I can tell, the other nickname along these same lines, undefined:, is the one likely to be referrenced (though still uncommon). Circeus 19:30, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thanks - much appreciated. Harris Morgan 21:47, 28 August 2008 (UTC).

 * So is it a proper english phrase and that it can be used in essays etc.?
 * Yes. But it could still be used in essays (etc.) even if it were only a French word.  French words and phrases are often included in literary works, although not as commonly today as in the past. --EncycloPetey 04:22, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:say wha

Tea room discussion
My knee jerk reaction was to just delete this offense. Even the definition uses wha. - Amgine/talk 04:25, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I wouldn't think we need a separate entry for a clipped version of an expression where the clipped spelling is not hard to connect to the original. Otherwise it seems just to be an alternative pronunciation. This particular pronunciation could be heard 2 miles from my house. DCDuring TALK 13:08, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I think we should add [[wha]], with a definition like “ ”. Once we do that, I agree with y'all that we shouldn't have [[say wha]], because it'll be sum-of-parts. —Ruakh TALK 14:37, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Done, but only for interjection. Not confident about other PoSs. DCDuring TALK 16:03, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * If we have [[say what]] (which we do), then [[say wha]] can redirect, as we do for other phrases.—msh210 ℠ 20:37, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

 * No, we don't use redirects on Wiktionary unless absolutely necessary. If it is a slang alternative form of "say what", then this is what should go at say wha (and indeed we now have something similar). A redirect is unhelpful because it doesn't explain the relationship between the entry linked from and the entry linked to. — Paul G 17:12, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I disagree. [[gave in]] redirects to [[give in]], because [[gave]] already explains that gave: is the past tense of give:, so [[gave in]] doesn't need to. Likewise, [[wha]] already explains that wha: is an eye-dialect spelling of what:, so [[say wha]] doesn't need to duplicate that explanation. (Presumably someone looking up say wha: already knows what wha: is, else they'd be looking that up instead.) —Ruakh TALK 00:25, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:V-1

Tea room discussion
I'm not sure the definition given, an early guided missile, is correct, even though it seems to agree with what is listed under guided missile. A V-1 had only the most basic guidance, and could not be controlled after launch. Secondly, is it a missile, or is flying bomb more correct.--Dmol 14:53, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes, keeping itself on course by making corrections via its control surfaces didn't apply to the V-1 as far as I can remember. Perhaps it just needs a longer, more specific definition. SemperBlotto 15:01, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * The WP article describes the control system. It is a stability control system, not a course-correction system, more analogous to the feathers on an arrow. DCDuring TALK 15:55, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Not so: it had a gyrocompass, and thus would correct course. Robert Ullmann 16:05, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Since it has a guidance system, however elementary, it is a guided missile (for which, I guess, flying bomb is a dated synonym). This doesn't necessarily mean remotely guided or controlled. —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 06:33 z

 * It was a course-maintenance system. Most definitions of guided missile provided by other dictionaries refer to external control or a homing system. The WP article refers to "preset guidance" as a variety of guidance. That is very similar to calling an arrow a guided missile because the archer presets the path and the vanes minimize the departure from the path or calling a rifle bullet guided, because it uses a gyroscopic principle to maintain its course. The lack of external referents is key to the distinction. To call it guided makes our definition (and Wikipedia's) depart from prevailing definitions of "guided missile", whether or not it conforms to a more idiosyncratic definition of "guided missile". DCDuring TALK 10:32, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

 * See also Guidance system.

 * Of course contemporary guided missiles are more sophisticated—a typical dictionary definition wouldn't be intended to cover the entire history of guided missiles. Perhaps the V-1 needs a “historical” label.  But unlike an arrow, it armed itself, had several inputs (altimeter, pendulums, gyro), effected its own course, and tried to blow itself up on the target (conceptually identical to a Tomahawk cruise missile). —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 16:27 z

 * Some of the same would be true of a fused, finned artillery shell, especially one gyroscopically stabilized by rifling, or a finned, fused artillery rocket. Fancy contemporary cruise missile carry sensors and compare what they sense with a stored map. I simply don't believe that our definition accurately defines V-1 using the ordinary meaning of the terms used in the definition. An encyclopedic article that can explain itself at length can stretch and redefine terms in ways that we should not. DCDuring TALK 17:14, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

 * No, the V-1's guidance system uses feedback from sensors to alter its control surfaces. Arrows, spinning bullets and finned rockets don't respond to their own roll, pitch, yaw, tilt, or distance travelled (the V-1's cumulative airspeed counter is not just a timed fuse).  For decades, guided missiles had no stored maps or digital computers—these things don't define them. —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 18:35 z

On a tangent, a guided missile isn't really a vehicle; it's a weapon, in the class of bullets, shells, and bombs. It can travel through air or space, and may guide itself by control surfaces or redirecting its jet or rocket exhaust. Needs work.

And missile (military) and rocket (military) define themselves by each other: the definition of the latter, simpler device needs some help. —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 16:56 z

 * I agree: the ordinary meaning of "vehicle" is not really right for this, whether or not it is technically correct. DCDuring TALK 17:14, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Actually, it works, although it's not immediately clear, the missile itself is nothing without the warhead or equivalent element, hence it is the "carrier" of the warhead, AKA its vehicle (much like a substance can be a vehicle for a disease). Circeus 18:00, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

 * There is a strong analogy, but this isn't a great definition.

 * “Unmanned vehicle” implies an airplane or rocket ship with the cockpit replaced by a guidance system, akin to a drone or remotely-piloted vehicle (RPV)—a guided missile is none of these. In theory, there are guided missiles without warheads (see Kinetic Energy Interceptor). —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 18:43 z

 * Some definitions of "guided missile" from our competitors via OneLook:
 * MW: a missile whose course may be altered during flight
 * Encarta: a self-propelled missile that can be steered in flight by remote control or by an onboard homing device
 * AHD: A self-propelled missile that can be guided while it is in flight.
 * Dictionary.com (RH): an aerial missile, as a rocket, steered during its flight by radio signals, clockwork controls, etc.

 * IMHO, only the last would be consistent with a V-1-style course-deviation/stability control system constituting guidance. The ordinary meaning of the word "guided" would seem to imply some external agency (remote control) or, at least, target seeking. DCDuring TALK 19:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Man, I interpret that rather differently (and add one more):
 * MW: When the V-1's incorrect roll, pitch, or yaw are moving it off of its intended course, it uses its control surfaces to alter its actual course.
 * Encarta: This one depends on the definition of homing device. The V-1 is steered in flight by a device which enables it to find its target (historically, only about 25% of the time).
 * AHD: Self-propelled, obviously. Guided by its guidance system.
 * Dictionary.com: Ditto.
 * CanOD: “a missile directed to its target by remote control or by internal equipment.”
 * I dispute your interpretation of the “ordinary” meaning of guided. A guided missile is one with a guidance system.  None of the definitions above requires external guidance or remote control. —Michael Z. 2008-08-25 21:52 z

 * Going by the above definitions, I feel like a "guided missile" is one that, if you somehow teleported it twenty feet mid-flight, would theoretically still end up at the same place. By contrast, from its Wikipedia article, it sounds like the V-1 would end up twenty feet away. Am I right? —Ruakh TALK 23:21, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

 * No. Any craft which uses inertial guidance would fail the test.  That would include airliners, Apollo moon rockets, and Minuteman ICBMs, although I would assume that more elaborate systems would eventually compensate for the error by incorporating external inputs.

 * I get the impression that everyone here assumes that after the V-1, say starting later in 1944 with the V-2, everything called a “guided missile” must have had GPS, Google Maps, and scanned the ground with giant laser eyeballs. Come on folks—there's no magic. A guided missile is any one with some system which pivots a rudder or gimbals a rocket motor in response to its own movements.  For the first thirty years of their existence, they would have used a lot of mechanical parts for this, and had very little reliance on any external input. —Michael Z. 2008-08-26 04:20 z

 * Ah, O.K., that makes sense. Thanks for explaining. (And I am so glad to live in the era of GPS, Google Maps, and giant ground-scanning laser eyeballs. Progress is great. :-) —Ruakh TALK 12:24, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Giant. Laser.  Eyeballs.

 * I've tweaked the definitions for rocket and missile. Please have a look.

 * Re: giant laser eyeballs: Yeah, I heard you the first time. What, you're the only one allowed to have a sense of humor? :-)  —Ruakh TALK 15:16, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I would argue that most weaponry missiles are not guided missiles, but ballistic missiles. Nobody would claim that an airliner or a manned space vehicle was a guided missile.
 * OTOH, the use of the word "guidance" in "inertial guidance system" suggests that the idea of guidance has to do with the ability to adjust power and control surfaces as opposed to the nature of the information to which the control system responds. It still seems more encyclopedic than we can accommodate. A less problematic definition would say that the V-1 was a "cruise missile". DCDuring TALK 16:30, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Ballistic missiles include some artillery rockets, and theatre and strategic missiles which are fired at an area on the ground (elaborate ones also have terminal guidance which helps them hit a target precisely). They do not include antiaircraft, antitank, antiship, or anti-missile  missiles which are fired at potentially moving targets, nor any kind of homing or smart missiles, nor terrain-following cruise missiles. I merely referred to planes and rocket ships to point out that not only the primitive V-1 would fail a purely theoretical teleportation test, and that many sophisticated systems relied on similar principals.

 * Yes, guidance means what you refer to, but inertial guidance only includes inputs from internal sensors (although practical systems would supplement that with additional types of guidance if possible, e.g. ground-based nav beacons for aircraft). I suppose in theory the V-1 might be called a primeval cruise missile, but as far as I know this category normally means missiles which follow terrain features to evade radar. —Michael Z. 2008-08-27 17:43 z

 * What I liked about "cruise missile" (vs. "guided missile") was that it sidestepped the encyclopedic discussion of guidance to focus on more salient and much less debatable features of the V-1: 1., its use of jet propulsion and, 2., its operation under power for almost its entire run to the target. DCDuring TALK 18:23, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Indeed, jet propulsion and an airplane-like trajectory is common to both the V-1 and cruise missiles. Scanning through V-1 flying bomb and cruise missile, I see that the two are historically related.

 * But constant propulsion is a characteristic of all missiles except ballistic missiles. And the more I think about it, all modern missiles also seem to be guided missiles.  Perhaps guided is an optional qualifier or intensifier, distinguishing post-1943 reaction-propelled missiles from pre-modern missiles such as sling stones, javelins, arrows, crossbow bolts and catapult projectiles. —Michael Z. 2008-08-27 19:41 z

Regarding rocket, rocket engine, rocket propulsion and jet, jet engine, jet propulsion: I'm thinking the fact that the latter breathes air and the former doesn't may be a defining characteristic. —Michael Z. 2008-08-26 15:25 z

Talk:garage

Tea room discussion
The second noun definition is currently "(mostly UK) A petrol filling station, or place where cars are serviced and repaired.".

I'm wondering if this shouldn't be split into two senses, "petrol filling staiton" and "place where cars are serviced and repaired"? The functions are related, but different. Although there are establishments that do both, these are getting fewer and are now the exception rather than the rule. Use of the term "garage" for the meaning "petrol filling station" is also being supplanted by "petrol station" (although I have only anecdotal evidence for this). Thryduulf 01:07, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I think you could well be right. Splitting them would be correct, as these two functions are becoming more and more separated. It would also make translations easier. I believe most languages have different words (eg Spanish taller, gasolinera) -- A LGRIF  talk 11:53, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I agree as well. Further, the second sense in that definition is also used in the US, but the first sense in the definition is not. --EncycloPetey 15:44, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I have added a dated sense: "an independent automobile repair shop". Is that US, No Amer? It was very hard to write . DCDuring TALK 16:02, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but I can't speak for Canada, eh? --EncycloPetey 16:23, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * All of these senses are used in Canada too, eh. I don't see why the last should be marked dated—perhaps such garages are less common, but it is still a common name for them. —Michael Z. 2008-08-29 17:46 z
 * How about being a bit more nuanced: "a place where petrol is sold, or where cars are repaired and serviced, or combining both functions"? We are not constrained to short definitions (although crispness is always an advantage), so if the longer, slightly more complex one better describe the reality, then so be it. Circeus 18:04, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Because that sense does not apply to the US meaning of the word. In the US, a garage does not sell petrol (or gasoline); it is a repair facility.  A gas station: / filling station: may have a garage facility present, but a garage would not sell gas. --EncycloPetey 18:09, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
 * In the US until a few decades ago almost all gas stations were also garages (repair shops) and vice versa. You could often also pay have your car garaged there. The first function that disappeared (mostly) was the storage function from which "garage" began. Wondrous strange, this evolutionary process, isn't it? DCDuring TALK 19:20, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

Originally, service stations were the only place you could get either gas or a mechanic. The two senses reflect divergence of function: many gas now stations have no mechanic and many mechanics do not sell gas. --Una Smith 05:47, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

I've split the sense as I suggested and added usage notes explaining that the storage, servicing and refuelling functions were originally all one, but that they are becoming increasingly separate. Almost certainly though the usage notes could almost certainly be improved. Thryduulf 23:18, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Has anyone actually seen a use of "garage" used as a noun for an amateur rock band? I've only ever heard it as "garage band", which is listed under "derived terms". grendel|khan 13:16, 27 October 2008 (UTC)
 * "garage" as an adjective in reference to bands and their music is common, but I can't recall seeing just "garage" as a noun in this context. Thryduulf 22:06, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

 * NOAD calls this a plural noun. —Michael Z. 2008-08-28 05:24 z

 * So does the OALD. Plural noun, thus plural form of verb. --Duncan MacCall 22:25, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

Tea room discussion (November 2008)
Odds have meaning of handicap? Like in phrases:

"Odds matches versus grandmasters ... He had won 1½-½ when given pawn-and-move, and 2½-1½ (1 win, 3 draws) when given exchange odds but playing black. In two standard games (Milov had white, no odds), Rybka won 1½-½."  TestPilot talk to me! 08:15, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
 * nvm, m-w.com answered the question.  TestPilot talk to me! 08:24, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:reservoir dog

Tea room discussion
Hello, First of all, i'm not a native english speaker, but i'll do my best ! :) Is there someone who know the expression reservoir dog ? I've found a link in urban dictionary but i'm not that confident (with my english and with the serious of this dictionary). So I leave it to someone more capable. Thanks

 * There seems to have been no special use of the term before the stylish Quentin Tarantino movie, Reservoir Dogs. One of film's makers, when asked about the title, said that it was an old American expression referring to dogs that hung around reservoirs. DCDuring TALK 11:23, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * That sounds doubtful; I'd heard that it was Tarantino mishearing "Au Revoir Les Enfants" and liking the way the words sounded together. The words in and of themselves are as meaningful as "twinkie house". grendel|khan 13:24, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Talk:dead or alive

Tea room discussion
I was ready to rfd this, but thought it might be salvageable. I am not sure whether the thought would be better at wanted dead or alive or wanted: dead or alive. It also may not belong in wiktionary. DCDuring TALK 11:16, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I'd keep it at this title; might redirect one or two variants. We should keep the entry, it is a set phrase, and it is more than sum-of-parts: it means taken by any means necessary. If you have to shoot him, fine; if he gets beaten up, fine. Whatever condition. Robert Ullmann 11:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:English vice

Tea room discussion
This term is hugely polysemic; it would be fascinating to discover in just how many senses this term has been and is used. I need to go to bed now, but the entry already has six senses, each with at least one citation. Add more if you can everyone — it’s a challenge! †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 02:41, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Are some of these one-offs, or are they all broadly attributed? Perhaps English vice only has one sense: a vice being associated with the English. —Michael Z. 2008-08-29 18:02 z

 * Well, I’ve found eight senses so far; each of them has one or two citations showing such usage. All of these senses will have the same etymology — which is the one and only “sense” you suggest exists. †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 18:58, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * I don't know, most of those quotations are either mention-only, or would work almost as well with “British vice” or “English flaw”. I'm not sure this is really an idiom. —Ruakh TALK 23:57, 29 August 2008 (UTC)

 * None of them are mentions, but most define the term in some way as well as using it. (Nota that it’s easier to define a term with such quotations.) I partly agree that could be a near-synonym, but I’d say that’s down to “England” and “Britain” being near-synonyms for many people more than anything else. “Flaw” wouldn’t work — “vice” denotes that the negative quality is (at least semi-) intentional. I think this term is one whose meaning will not be immediately obvious to many who encounter it. I reckon it deserves an entry; we have entries for a great many terms which are far weaker idioms. †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 00:35, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

As an Englishman
I can confirm that I have all these vices (especially sadomasochism and snobbishness). So it's sum of parts. Oh wait I'm not gay, cancel that. Equinox ◑ 20:57, 30 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Me too! All except hypocrisy. And I should add that Equinox's comments are often humorous and dumb. P. Sovjunk (talk) 19:51, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Citations:Central Europe

Proper noun: "a geographic region in the center of Europe"

 * 1860 — Duncan Forbes, The History of Chess, page 201
 * I shall in proof of this, insert here the earliest Chess anecdote which I have yet seen in reference to Central Europe, and if the circumstance there related can be established not only as highyl probable, but historically authentic, the correctness of all subsequent anecdotes, &c., respecting the game, found in our old chronicles and romances before the time of the Crusaders, will need no further confirmation.
 * 1898 — L. C. Miall, "A Yorkshire Moor", Nature No. 1504, volume 58 (Aug 25), page 404
 * Species which are now isolated, at least in Central Europe, occupying moors or other special tracts, and surrounded by a population with which they have little in common, were formerly continuous over vast areas.
 * 1917 — G. K. Chesterton, A Short History of England, ch XII
 * In the generation after Elizabeth the spread of the new wild doctrines in the old wild lands had sucked Central Europe into a cyclic war of creeds.
 * 1919 — John Maynard Keynes, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, ch 2
 * To understand the present situation, we must apprehend with vividness what an extraordinary centre of population the development of the Germanic system had enabled Central Europe to become. Before the war the population of Germany and Austria-Hungary together not only substantially exceeded that of the United States, but was about equal to that of the whole of North America.
 * 1931 — Herbert Hoover, Third State of the Union Address
 * The economic crisis in Germany and Central Europe last June rose to the dimensions of a general panic from which it was apparent that without assistance these nations must collapse.
 * 1996 — Lonnie R. Johnson, Central Europe: Enemies, Neighbors, Friends, p. 4
 * Western Christendom's centuries-long confrontation with the Oriental and Islamic empire of the Ottoman Turks also helped define Central Europe as a cultural and historical region.
 * 2002 — Paul Robert Magocsi, Historical Atlas of Central Europe, 2nd ed., p. xiii
 * It has also become clear since 1989 that the articulate elements in many countries of this region consider eastern or even east-central to carry a negative connotation and prefer to be considered part of Central Europe.

Talk:allotroph

an allotroph is an element that exists in two different forms but in the same phase. Example) oxygen gas (O2) and ozone gas (O3) The current definition refers to an autotroph - that is an organism that can make its own food. Example) a plant or photosynthetic bacteria
 * No, an autotroph manufactures its food from inorganic components. An allotroph (or heterotroph) takes in food that was made by other organisms. --EncycloPetey 00:23, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
 * You are essentially confusing two different terms for different concepts.
 * The correct chemical term is allotrope (where -trope denotes `(one of several possible different) forms'; OED states this is derived from (classical) Greek τρόπος (turn, way, manner, style) and τροπῄ (the act of turning, solstice)).
 * The biological term allotroph may or may not exist in English; it is not to be found in OED; but if it does exist with the sense suggested in our entry, like heterotroph it should be derived from Hellenistic Greek τροφικός, derived from (classical) Greek τροφῄ, nourishment. Under the entry for allotrophic, OED notes that this is sometimes (but rarely) used in the chemical sense, probably as a mistake for allotropic; while the biological sense, corresponding to the one given in our entry, is stated to be derived from the German word allotroph.
 * Now, if the word allotroph indeed is used in (scientific biological) German, it is not unlikely that it can be found in (scientific biological) English, too. However, this should be independently verified; where the former en-wp substub article and its various mirrirs and copies do not form part of the verification.
 * The German biological sense, indirectly attested in OED, anyhow should be given in this entry, I suppose; but preferably with a more direct confirmation.
 * As for the chemical sense, I suppose that this might be given as a misspelling of or mistake for allotrope. However, I do not know how en-wikt customarily treats such word forms sporadically appearing due to mistakes or misprints. JoergenB (talk) 14:49, 3 December 2014 (UTC)

RFV discussion: December 2014–July 2015
Pursuant to the post in the TR, I couldn't find anything in BGC that was actually the exact word "allotroph" once I clicked on it that wasn't in fact a mention or the second sense, although I'm RFVing the whole thing since I'm not sure the second sense should be included either, as it is not exactly a misspelling but certainly not accurate, either. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 23:00, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
 * WP treats allotroph as a redirect to Heterotroph.
 * Our definition seems silly: where else would energy come from, the nuclear reactor one was born with?
 * I see apparent uses of allotroph more often in German scholarly works, with a meaning something like heterotroph, I think. I must leave that to someone with better German and biology/biochemistry than mine.
 * I saw English use at Google Scholar of allotroph where allotrope seems to me to be what was meant. DCDuring TALK 01:06, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
 * The definition might be simultaneously silly and true. Renard Migrant (talk) 22:33, 12 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Would you like to wager that the definition in German would not translate to ours? (Not to say that one would not be able to see the source of the error.) DCDuring TALK 00:37, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

 * We don't include rare misspellings, but that the fact this is (very rarely) a misspelling almost as often as it is (very rarely) a wordmeaning heterotroph seems pertinent, so I've included it in a usage note. I've cited the "heterotroph" sense. - -sche (discuss) 05:45, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Production

 * Move both hands to the following posture.
 * Move both hands to the following posture.
 * Move both hands to the following posture.

Verb

 * 1) to go; to move oneself to a specific location; to come

Usage notes
This is a directional verb. The final location and orientation indicate the direction or destination of the movement. For example, if a location in space off to the right side of the signer has been established to represent a particular restaurant, making this sign with movement and final pointing direction toward that location may translate as, “went to that restaurant.”

To emphasise the act of going rather than the direction or destination, the sign may be used instead.

Conjugation
This sign is used to indicate that one or two individuals go somewhere. To indicate that more than two individuals go somewhere, the sign is used instead.

Template talk:RQ:Fielding Tom Jones

The template takes two parameters:

 * - the Book number (in capital Roman numerals)
 * - the chapter number (in lower-case Roman numerals)

Linking to Book & Chapter
There seems to be disagreement over whether it is "excessive" to link to the specific Book & Chapter in this template. I believe it is helpful, and not excessive, to do such linking for two reasons. First, the goal of these reference templates is to allow readers to verify the given citation, so it is helpful to point them to the specific Wikisource page and section where the quote can be found. Second, we agree that a link to the copy of Tom Jones at Wikisource is good, the question is whether it should link to the ToC for the whole book, or to the specific place where the quote comes from. In that case, one option cannot be more "excessive" than the other, as they both contain only one link. I have reverted to the specific link, with a note to discuss the matter here. Feel free to revert to the general link along with your comment here if you wish. JesseW 21:46, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

 * The link to the book is prefereable. The main page for a work on Wikisource is not merely a table of contents, unless an editor has failed to put in additional information. A wikisource main page for an entry includes information and links that are useful for understanding the context of a work, including the type of publication and general information.  Linking to a specific chapter / book / verse / act is also a bad idea because the page organization for works change on Wikisource. I have seen Shakespeare plays go from being all on a single page to one page per act; the KJV Bible had all its pages renamed and restructured more than once; and I've seen novels have their linking structure completely revised as well.  The constant is the main entry for the work, and this is where the contextual information is located, so the links should go there. --EncycloPetey 01:31, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The concerns about context are certainly reasonable, and I've also seen works be rearranged on Wikisource, sometimes even getting their top level page renamed. However, I don't think it's unreasonable for us to update these templates when the organization changes -- that's what putting this information in a template is for.  But it does seem important to link to a source for the work's context as well.  Considering that, what about this compromise: the title would link either to the Wikipedia entry if it exists (since the WP entry would have more contextual information), or the Wikisource top page if not; and the "Chapter ..." part would link to the specific Wikisource link, to facilitate seeing the surrounding context for the quote. -- 75.212.240.163 (really, User:JesseW not logged in) 08:54, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * The surrounding context should be included when the citation is pulled for use here. If there is insufficient context in our quote, then not enough of the quote was used.  Unlike print dictionaries, we have the space to include longer quotations. --EncycloPetey 17:02, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Sufficient context to explain the use of the word, yes -- but not sufficient context, necessarily, to explain what is going on in the passage. In any case, we can and should include enough bibliographic info that linking to a source for further context about the work should be unnecessary, too.  The point of the links is to provide further information.  I've applied my suggested compromise, let me know what you think. JesseW 19:37, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Obviously, I disagree, but I'm willing to go with the compromise edit (at least for now) and see how I feel about it in a few months time. My opinon sometimes changes, after all. --EncycloPetey 19:41, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Sounds good. Thanks for the discussion. JesseW 20:41, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
