Wiktionary talk:Russian templates

Adjective inflection
Why on Earth do we need two sets of identical templates? But that's not the problem. First, there's no declension template for ...цый adjectives, I would add it but I want it to be ru-adjective7 and I want current ru-adjective7 and ru-adjective8 renamed to ru-adj-possessive1 etc. This is important distinction, possessive adjectives have different declension patterns from regular even when their lemmas have the same ending (собачий - кусачий, but собачьего - кусачего). And ru-adjective7 using третий as an example... Since when it's an adjective? And now, третий is listed as 'ordinal number' but it's in Russian adjectives category. And there's also third form for possessives - мамин/маминого etc. which also needs a template. Сукин (which should fall there but doesn't) is actually an exception, using outdated declension, it shouldn't be an example. So I'm thinking of renaming two possessive adjective templates, there's only a dozen entries linked. What d'ya say? --Panda34 14:33, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

 * Originally we had only one set, which was ru-adj1. At some point we made some fundamental changes that required opening each existing page and changing the information. Since there were quite a few already, we made a separate set, ru-adjective1. Later when I had more time, I opened each of the older pages and made the required changes, and then I copied the formating from ru-adjective1 over to ru-adj1. That’s why there are now two identical templates. It would be better to delete ru-adjective1 and have only ru-adj1, which is easier to remember and easier to type, but that means changing a lot of pages to the shorter name.
 * I would not mind if ru-adjective7 and ru-adjective8 were renumbered to a higher number, but the name ru-adj-possessive1 is simply too difficult. I would have to search for the name every time I wanted to apply it. And just because the template name does not say "possessive" does not imply that the words to which it applies are not possessives.
 * Ordinal numbers (such as third and третий) are considered adjectives, at least in the English sense of the word adjective. In most cases, even the cardinal numbers are technically adjectives, but Russian does not treat them as such. Since сукин is an exception, I think we could just put a declension table on that page instead of the template, and then change the template so that it works for мамин. Besides the -ий and -ин possessives, don’t forget the -ов kind (Петров). —Stephen 19:08, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

How do we make several short forms for an adjective? шустрый should also have шустр and шустёр for short masculine, do you have to copy the whole expanded template or can it be tricked somehow? The same is for comp/superl forms in ru-adj. стрёмный needs стрёмнее/стрёмней/стремнее/стремней = 4 comp. forms (and also a duplicate set of short forms, at least fem and pl)--Panda34 10:59, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Like this and this. Is стремнее a typographical variant of стрёмнее or is it pronounced стремне́е? If it's a mere typographical variant, we don't want it in the inflection line. --Vahagn Petrosyan 11:22, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

 * It's a different word, not an umlaut issue. Superlative also (I've added it).--Panda34 12:20, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Multiple short forms can be added just by using a comma, as in ...|шустр, шустёр|..., or, if you want them to link, ...|шустр, шустёр|.... —Stephen 19:10, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Can anyone get rid of superlative there: студёный? --Panda34 11:58, 16 September 2010 (UTC) The template is all wrong anyway ru-adj|- usage is wrong.--Panda34 13:13, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Do it like this. Use   for that other thing. The template isn't very intuitive and polished, I admit. I lost my interest in Russian templates half-way making it. --Vahag 13:48, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I read docs too, you know ;) I told you "minus" usage is all wrong - just look what you've done to comparative! And by getting rid I mean get rid, expunge, obliterate, not substitute some excuse for superlative which this template cannot do, it being sure that anything having a comparative must have a superlative (which is not without logic, I admit).--Panda34 20:44, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I now see it's broken. I'll rewrite and simplify it in few days. --Vahag 14:44, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Automated declension templates
If I understand the naming convention correctly, we need for князь. —Stephen 13:19, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Now created. I omitted few templates covering rarer paradigms. --Vahagn Petrosyan 14:30, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Need for вошь. I’m having trouble with заяц/, заём/, and дятел/...the links have stress marks. —Stephen 06:50, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

 * I can’t believe I hadn’t noticed the stress problem, especially when it had metastasized to so many templates. I think now I fixed everything, but let me know if you notice more of this shit. By the way, you don’t have to go back and fix these. Now the templates will work with correct stress even if the there is a first variable (which, of course, in case of азер or завод is not required, but I sometimes add one as a mnemonic device, given that most of other templates require the unstressed word as a first variable). As for вошь, it’s irregular. It's reduced to вш-, except for instrumental singular: вошью. I don’t want to make ad-hoc templates for such cases. It’s better to decline these manually. --Vahagn Petrosyan 10:11, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

I think we need to have for вожжа, unless the genitive plural is irregular. I think вожжей is regular for this pattern, isn’t it? —Stephen 10:57, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Sure. It's regular. --Vahagn Petrosyan 12:59, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

Examples, please!
It's the first time I see this page. Great job! Unfortunately, I have trouble figuring the usage of many templates. Stephen, Vahagn, or anybody who understands this, are you able to gradually add an example next to each template, please? At the moment, when deciding on a template, I look for a similar word existing word in the Wiktionary, hoping that it has the right template, like I did for светофор. At first, I tried семафор but the declension was manual, then I chose мотор and fixed семафор. If there were examples, it would be much easier for me and I think for some others to choose the right template. --Anatoli 05:34, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

 * I don't plan adding examples in the near future, because I'm busy these days. But if you want to do it, there are examples on every individual template's page, e.g. Template:ru-noun-inan-й-1 or Template:ru-noun-inan-sib-е-1. Even better rule of picking the right template is:
 * determining whether the word is animate or inanimate
 * determining its ending
 * determining the stress pattern number from Appendix:Russian stress patterns (usually it's 1)
 * guessing the template name by this formula:
 * --Vahagn Petrosyan 08:57, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Maybe if you find a word that you want to give the declension for, let me know and I can walk you through the steps that I use to select the right template. The first and most difficult step is deciding the stress pattern. You can use Appendix:Russian stress patterns to determine which of the six possibilities is the correct one. After a few times, it becomes very easy to know the stress pattern for most nouns. The rest of the process for choosing the template is very simple. —Stephen 13:56, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks, it may not be as difficult as I think. I can figure our out some conventions used but not all, e.g. -unc- and not sure I understand the numbering or the difference between similar patterns with different numbers. I will try to search, which nouns use which patterns or just experiment and see results (have no problem with the actual declension of nouns :) ). Are stress patterns and declension patterns linked? --Anatoli 20:13, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

 * -unc (unchanged) means no plural, singular only. You might use the following as a starter pattern: . Then change inan (inanimate) to anim (animate) for nouns that refer to people or animals; vel means velar, a stem that ends in г, к, х, and delete it if it’s not a velar; change vel to sib if the stem ends in a sibillant ж, ч, ш, щ. If it ends in a, o, or one of the other endings mentioned, then change vel to that ending (or add the ending after vel/sib if that is what it is). If it ends in ь, then you have to indicate m or f (after the number: -ь-1-f). Then put the correct number according to the stress pattern...usually it is 1. Finally you can add -unc if it is singular only. Also, for masculine nouns that have the nominative plural in а, add а after the number.
 * For the common masculine nouns, you only need to put the accented form, leaving the unaccented form blank: . For feminine, neuter, and other nouns, you usually need the unaccented, then the accented form:  . Some nouns that have an irregular plural stem or irregular genitive plural are more complex, and you need to look at the template to see the proper usage.
 * Usually the stress pattern only affects which syllable gets the accent, but there are some cases where the stress dictates whether, for example, the plural genitive ends in -ев or -ей.
 * I hope I have not made it too confusing. It really is very intuitive. —Stephen 20:45, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks a lot, it's getting better and it will get even better with practice. I will add some examples gradually, I think they will be beneficial for native speakers (including myself), as they could determine the template from examples. --Anatoli 09:23, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

 * You know, of course, that you can go to any template and click on "What links here" to see every page where that template was applied. For example, Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:ru-noun-inan-2. —Stephen 18:29, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

 * A great hint, thanks! --Anatoli 23:22, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

Doing it better with scripts
That heavy stuff here should be now rewritten in simpler Lua scripts. Additionally, there is parser function (can be accessed from Lua as  ) which is now mostly consists of stubs; it would be good if it were rewritten by somebody on more consistent declesion algoritm. I've written in English Wikipedia a script w:en:Module:RuGrammar, don't bite me, it's my first Lua one and is intended for mostly substituting heaviest templates of Russian Wkipedia, here referred for just being an example. I'm not familiar with task force organization in this project so writing it here. Ignatus (talk) 18:21, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I've started doing it with Module:ru-translit, please test and use it, gentle people! Ignatus (talk) 21:09, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Constants. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Constants~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 23:42, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Renamed
 This account has been renamed as part of single-user login finalisation. If you own this account you can |log in using your previous username and password for more information. If you do not like this account's new name, you can choose your own using this form after logging in: . -- Keegan (WMF) (talk) 07:00, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Please try and post in the appropriate section, however, in cases which you created a discussion in the wrong section, and the mistake is not fixed until I see it, I will correct it on-the-spot.

כוץ
Could you give an English translation of any example sentences please. Cheers. SemperBlotto 18:15, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Added a translation and a "English" part. Thanks for telling me about this. Bye... -SmileyBarry 18:27, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Now you've got me confused. It is not English - I have removed the English section. Is it an adjective (meaning annoyed) or a noun (meaning an annoying person)? SemperBlotto 18:33, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
 * כוץ is hebrew slang, so it's kind of hard to explain, but I guess noun as your second example fits the word. I'll go and change it now. -SmileyBarry 18:40, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

 * That who or which is lacking (the subject of ) is in the elative or ablative case. The elative case is used when the missing or lacking thing is considered to be a part of that thing, while the ablative case is used when the missing or lacking thing is considered something that one possesses, owns or has:

User talk:Samhan~enwiktionary

Hi there, Wiktionary is not a list of companies - and I am very doubtful that Traton would have met our CFI for trademarks, which generally amount to three independant sources using the trademark without any explanation of what it represents. I have deleted it for the moment, but if you can find three such sources - then feel free to add it back. For more information about the project, look at the links below - or ask me on my talk page.

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Samhan. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Samhan~enwiktionary that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Boatload
I'm pretty sure this has some relation to "boatload" they are too similar in pronunciation for this to have been a coincidence.

 * The same similarity is in e.g. coatable and cuttable, which are unrelated. Equinox ◑ 10:34, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

Volume or mass
There may be an actual measurement but I'm not sure how to integrate these: The English Dialect Dictionary (1898) describes a butt-load as a cart load about 18 hundredweight (ie. about 914 kg). Meanwhile, The Rural Economy of the West of England (1796) describes a butt load as about six seams (ie. about 48 bushels or 1745 litres), which is repeated in The Dictionary of Trade Products (1858). - AdamBMorgan (talk) 18:53, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

my nigger
This recently passed RfD. I have been looking into the term a bit and believe that the sense given has not been supported. The reference to the movie Training Day certainly does not unambiguously support the sense given. I didn't remember the usage in the film that way and others writing about the film in print also viewed it differently. The term "nigger", when used by black people to each other, can be "affectionate". (I have inseerted an additional neutral sense of the term in our entry for nigger.) But "my nigger", with the notion of possession, seems to introduce more a possibility of subservience, which is how I interpreted the Training Day use. (Also, a similar use in Pulp Fiction, also said by a black man to a white man, BTW.) OTOH, I don't have any direct experience of the use of the term "my nigger". DCDuring 02:31, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

 * I don't know whether I can find print citations, but I can personally attest to its regular use among teens in California, at least. --EncycloPetey 03:31, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * The argument you make seems to be that my nigger = my + nigger, with the latter being in the sense of "a term of address", loosely an equivalent of "friend" in AAVE. I don't belive that argument because "my" does not pragmatically restrict the meaning: "his nigger" etc. would not be analyzed the same way. In my view this would pass the Egyptian pyramid test since the second term does "not have the most general meaning attributable". In fact the literal meaning would be that stated by a slaveholder. However, if you like we can open the RFD back up for discussion. DAVilla
 * Any use of a personal pronoun is likely to have a different emotional content, isn't it? "My child" is warmer and nicer than "his child". Since literal slave-holding is both illegal and not involved in the fictional relationships under discussion, the word can only refer to some other kind of relationship of subservience. DCDuring 12:59, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * The quotation listed should stay but as mention doesn't count toward verification; rather the quotation from the movie itslef should be listed. I can't find "my nigger" in Pulp Fiction but DCDuring only said it was similar. DAVilla 04:01, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

 * A secondary source for the purported Pulp Fiction cite:
 * 2000, Christine Gledhill, Linda Williams, Reinventing Film Studies, page 285
 * Upon noticing Vince at the bar, Marsellus greets him jauntily as "my nigger"
 * I don't know what this all means. If we could get more quotes, then perhaps we could understand this a bit better. I any event, we seem to have justification for the less pejorative sense of "nigger" and another sense as figurative slave, someone who has to do someone's bidding. If "nigger" weren't so emotionally charged, the differences in tone wouldn't matter as much. DCDuring 13:00, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Everything included under the second etymology looks suspect. I don't know whether there is any salvageable material, either for homer or Homer. It would help if you know your Homeric Greek. DCDuring 19:31, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

RfV discussion for Anglicised plural form — RfV failed
Plural form of. Zero Google Book Search Hits. Non-standard if extant. †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 03:20, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * No scholar hits, no news hits, no groups hits. Books would have been the best shot. OTOH, MW3 shows it. DCDuring 05:15, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * MW3? Remember that secondary sources do not count towards attestation. †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 13:00, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Weird, the MW website doesn't seem to recognise it. For that matter they don't recognise accusatrices either.  It is possible no one before has ever tried to use the plural form, but if they did I think accusatrices would have to be the word.  Widsith 14:38, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * I'd go for the Latin approach, but I took 4 years of it and have used the words "matrices" and "codices" in spoken sentences. I was using an old print edition of MW3. I may have misinterpreted their notation. Maybe they assumed that their readers understood pluralization morphology or had read some appendix on it.
 * [finds entry; reads "Plurals" section.]
 * The entry has "pl -ES", the source of my statement above. The "Plurals" section mentions the rule (#4 in their sequence) that words ending in s, z, x, ch, sh form plurals by adding -es. Rule #18.1 mentions Latin plurals and gives six "x" examples, which of course have the "-ces" endings. They do not present a good algorithm for how to apply their rules. Furthermore the opening paragraph says, more or less, that you can get away with -s and -es. No wonder so many were scandalized when MW3 came out. Of course, they have a disclaimer about the completeness of the 23 "rules" that they present.
 * I think MW3 must have been attempting to reflect the practices of a population of American English speakers (and English teachers!), very few of whom had or would have much education in any foreign language, let alone the Classics. Of course, such a population would be unlikely to use a word that required and unconventional plural and gender specification when a shorter word conventinally pluralized, gender-neutral word like "accuser" was available. DCDuring 15:28, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * In any event, the facts of usage seem to say that the few folks who have ever used the word form the plural "-ices" in accord with a good Classical education. DCDuring 15:28, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

I assume “MW3” means “Merriam–Webster [Third Edition]” or somesuch… I maintain that the use of would be wrong. MW3 are prescribing ignorance. The →  rule is one of the easy ones — it’s not like, , , , , , or. One does not need a Classical education to be familiar with the -x → -ces rule — it’s fairly common in well-formed, formal English. (I don’t have a Classical education.) †  ﴾(u):Raifʻhār (t):Doremítzwr﴿ 21:38, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Merriam-Webster's Webster's Third New International Dictionary of the English Language Unabridged (1993) is a handy source for ways in which US English may have differed and still differ from UK English. In this case, I think their editorial work was sloppy in that they only showed one plural form. They show both "apexes" and "apices", "appendixes" and "appendices", "codex" and "codices", "executrixes" and "executrices", "indexes" and "indices", "matrixes" and "matrices. DCDuring 00:28, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Part of the solution that my fellow Americans have found is to simply not use -ix nouns. A female executing a will in most legal documents will be an executor. They'll avoid plurals that make them uncomfortable. And they will impose their will on words they may want, like apex, appendix, and index. DCDuring 00:37, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

 * Putting aside the colorful xenophobia of all the comments above, I think all that has been established so far, is that "accusatrix" is not a word. Certainly, the word you are looking for in Modern English is accuser.  The first error above, is in the twisted thinking that suggests accusator is a word at all - in modern usage, it is not.  The second fallacy is that gender could (in Modern English) be then applied in an even more archaic fashion to the more archaic variant or that obsolete term, in modern usage - it is not.  It is perhaps reasonable to think that if it is a word, a plural could be formed from that.  A devoted historic linguist might, at that point look to the etymology.  But mere mortals do no such thing, choosing instead the nearest rule that applies in their language.  The fact that it doesn't appear to be a word comes as no surprise then.  But it is nothing short of erroneous, at that point, to then take a pluralization rule, not from the language it was borrowed from, no, no, from yet another language...then to suggest - at that painfully stretched point - that the end result is Modern English.  Well, it's not.
 * It is far and beyond, a disservice to our readers to mislead them into thinking that accusator is a word in modern use. Of course we should tell readers what language it is and what the Modern English translation of it, is.  Asserting then, that the derivative term  accusatrix is a word, is the error; not the prescription of a normalized plural (should the word somehow resurface by other means.)  If you would remove the normalized plural formation from our already misleading entries, it would be very reasonable to demand that the two-languages hop-skip-and-a-jump plural accusatrices be removed at the same time.  But perhaps it is more important to not list those variants as ==English==.  Certainly, attestation can be found from obscure tomes if one digs deep enough - but the only purpose for doing so is to mislead readers?  Why not simply identify what the language really is?  ==Middle English== almost certainly saw those terms in regular use...obviously in greater proportion than they occur today.  None of the three errors, compounded to arrive at accusatrices, are productive in Modern English - why mislead readers into thinking they are?    --Connel MacKenzie 14:27, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

 * This form looks like it will fail RfV. The words accusator, accusatrix, and accusatrices would all seem to be able to meet RfV. They are occasionally used in works of history and legal history and more rarely in fiction. Their usage seems to be declining. Do we have objective criteria for marking such entries appropriately? I don't think that many of our users are likely to use WT to help them select a word. IMHO, they are more likely to use WT to understand something they've read. IMHO, they might also even look for whether a given usage is "correct" to help them assess the overall quality and credibility of the work they are reading. It would be interesting, albeit time-consuming, to also mark all senses and all inflections of all entries that are no longer used in current writing. Sadly, we seem to have no way of knowing whether doing so would be of much value to our users. DCDuring TALK 16:45, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

"Second, unknown" sense
The second sense cited here seems to be a species of moth or butterfly. I found references to "Tinea accusatrix" and "Symmachia accusatrix". This would fit with the fact that accusatrix is italicized in the Transactions of the Royal Society of New Zealand citation, since species names are often italicized.
