Here are two citations of "infaring", which seem to support a more specific meaning (closer to that of the noun) than we currently list under the verb:, , (or these may support a noun "infaring"). - -sche (discuss) 19:56, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

RFV 1
Rfv-sense 2x: The citations I've found and put on the talk page may support a more specific noun sense of infaring, or might support a more specific verb sense. - -sche (discuss) 20:00, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) "(Scotland, US) A party or entertainment given to friends upon newly entering a house; a housewarming." as distinct from "(Scotland, US, dated) A party or other celebration held to mark someone entering a new home, especially the arrival of a bride at her new home; a wedding reception.", and
 * 2) "(ambitransitive) To go in; enter." (currently supported by only a mention of Joyce)

 * How is "A housewarming" a different sense from "A housewarming, especially one thrown for a bride?" anyway? Smurrayinchester (talk) 08:36, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

 * @Smurray: it's theoretically possible to cite them separately: find some books which speak of housewarmings for brides and of housewarmings for other people, using "infare" only for the former (or which define it as they use it); next, find other books which use "infare" broadly. However, the word doesn't seem to be used broadly. I've combined the noun senses; they pass. The verb is still uncited. - -sche (discuss) 03:07, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for adding pronunciations! We don't have nearly enough of those. Our standard welcome message, with its explanation of how to edit pages and so forth, is here... but you seem like you know what you're doing already. :) - -sche (discuss) 04:42, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * The words on the requests page and in the categories like Category:Requests for audio pronunciation (English) are the ones people have specifically requested pronunciations of ... and it's great for the words-of-the-days to have pronunciations (you can find all of the nominations here, though not every word that is nominated is made WOTD). Other than that, I don't think there's any guide on what to add. It's useful to have pronunciations of common words, because they're common, but it's useful to have pronunciations of complex (e.g. scientific) words because they're unknown, so you could go in any direction. I don't know if there are scripts to speed things up, but I'll ask in the WT:Grease Pit, where Wiktionary's technical discussions take place. - -sche (discuss) 22:24, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Ah, I found an old discussion, which pointed users to this page: w:Wikipedia:Creation_and_usage_of_media_files. The templates it refers to are for Wikipedia (Wiktionary uses different templates, which you've already been using correctly), but the programs it refers to are apparently the best free programs for making pronunciation recordings. - -sche (discuss) 23:01, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Yep, thanks for these. I'd thought about doing more of them some day, as I have tools to filter out the background noise that plagues some of our audio files, but uploading the files (with legal licence etc.) and linking them into articles is quite time-consuming. Pity we don't have a faster way to do batches of them. Equinox ◑ 12:06, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

 * I've been having a lot of luck using Commonist to upload files to Commons in batch. If I can convince an admin here to give me bot access, I plan to set up a few  scripts to add the links to our articles double-quick.  I think I'd even be able to write a script to discover new pronunciations on Commons and add those to articles as well (after a quick manual review, of course).  Once I'm cruising along, I'll write up a guide and post it here.  --Gabriel Sjöberg (talk) 12:20, 3 May 2012 (UTC)

sexed
Is there a reason for including "-sexed" in the titles of Category:Words with audio pronunciation by male-sexed speaker and its counterpart? I understand the difference between gender and sex, and that some people are transgender, I'm just not sure those titles solve more issues than they raise. Glad to see you're being bold, creating new templates and categories. Wiktionary tends to be more resistant to change than other wikis, so expect some resistance, but the community had actually just been talking about the need for more streamlined presentations of pronunciations, when you started work on that audio-IPA template. :) - -sche (discuss) 06:30, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

 * I guess there's no real reason other than my own pedantry... I was thinking that the natural sex of the speaker was more relevant to the production of audio than gender. Since I was focused on the biology and acoustics, it didn't even occur to me that the category names might be controversial.  I'll remove the "-sexed" component.
 * Thanks for the pointer to the pronunciation discussion. I wasn't aware that this topic was under consideration, so I'll read through the thread and try to make sure my changes are inline with the community's desires.  I'm also spending a lot of time on the IRC channel, so you should be able to find me there if you need me to make any changes to what I'm doing.   --Gabriel Sjöberg (talk) 13:36, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Pronunciations by language
Not a bad idea, I only removed it because you'd made a mistake. Rather than correct it, I removed it as I think a discussion about the best possible title is in order. We already have Category:Mandarin entries with audio links which is a pretty good title. I think 'file' is better than link, and perhaps 'terms' rather than entries, but only perhaps. Term tends to be what we use in place of words, as things like can't be called words, while entries refer to a page in the main namespace (or a potential one). So Category:Mandarin terms with audio files looks best to me. Mglovesfun (talk) 17:42, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

 * I need to go back and clean up that template. I've actually moved my own development to Template:audio-pron, so I'll fix it there first and backport my changes as needed.  I'm also about to start exploring the collapsible table idea that was proposed here, but could you take a look at what I've got so far and give a quick, unofficial yea or nay on the direction I'm heading, please?
 * --Gabriel Sjöberg (talk) 17:51, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

 * A couple of test entries use collapsible templates already: pecan and háček. I don't know how you're thinking of implementing tables (if you're thinking of making the collapsing table part of the pronunciation template itself), but a caveat: collapsible tables are good for terms with many pronunciations, like [[pecan]] or [[háček]] or [[water]] (or even [[caveat]]), as they help keep the definitions from being pushed several screens down. For terms with only one broad pronunciation, though, like [[language]], tables would just hide useful information. I wonder if it would be possible to not collapse terms with only one pronunciation, or to include broad transcriptions in the "title" text of the table (hopefully in a more streamlined way than I tried here).
 * Re your template's note that "Some features of this template require that the audio file is named in the following format: <lowercase 2-digit language>-<lowercase 2-digit country>": there are a lot of files that begin with capital letters, and there aren't many non-English pronunciations that include country codes, see [[bread]], [[Wasser]] and [[cart]] for example. - -sche (discuss) 20:57, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello from the Odia Wiktionary
Hi Gabriel, my name is Subhashish. I am a [pronunciation] contributor to the Odia-language Wiktionary. I recently came across the audio recordings and wanted to say how great they are. They are clean, clear and slow-paced for nonnative speakers to understand. I lead a project called "Kathabhidhana" that aims at providing education and a tool for anyone to create audio recordings for their language. The project is still in its early childhood and is growing slowly. I and another colleage Prateek have tried to use two different variations of the tool, and have recorded more than 1500 words so far. You being a linguist and an experienced contributor to Wiktionary, I would love to hear your overall comments on some of the words recorded recently in an improved home studio setup. Thanks much in advance. :) --Psubhashish (talk) 05:23, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

Talk:exponentially

I added a note on the use of "exponentially" when it is used as an absolute (e.g. "exponentially large") or comparatively (e.g. "exponentially larger"), but someone has eliminated my note and replaced it with a sarcastic comment. I've re-instated a rough approximation of what I wrote before, but I fully expect the change to be vandalised again.

If someone disagrees with what I've written, would you please explain what "exponentially large/larger" means before reverting this entry again? StandardPerson (talk) 06:54, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * There is no superlative for exponentially so the inclusion of most exponentially is absurd on "common (ab)use" and logical grounds. StandardPerson (talk) 07:19, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Your edits were reverted because Wiktionary is descriptive, not prescriptive: we describe how words are actually used, rather than prescribing or proscribing certain uses. When appropriate, we do inform readers that various authorities on grammar and usage proscribe (forbid) some uses — that's what Equinox reworded your usage note to; I can't see why you would think it was sarcastic; it was really just short and descriptively to the point. - -sche (discuss) 07:22, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * If the policy is to simply report and record the written, verbal and logical errors of people in the public eye, why do entries have Usage Notes at all? Why does the opinion of experts trump common usage, when the point is to report the latter?
 * However, if we pay attention to logic, I can assure you that 1.000000000001 — or any number greater than 1 — is exponentially bigger than 1, but I don't believe that this is the common (mis)understanding of the phrase. Again, why should we listen to the proscriptions of authorities on "grammar and usage" when the policy is to ignore common sense and logic?
 * As for most exponentially being the superlative of exponentially, I checked the entry for bigger but I couldn't find most bigger as a superlative. I've heard many illiterate people use most bigger so surely its inclusion is appropriate. Why isn't it there? StandardPerson (talk) 08:15, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Entries have usage notes to note and describe how they're used, and usage notes also describe how various authorities say words should and shouldn't be used. There is a distinction between saying "X doesn't exist / is wrong" and saying "X is nonstandard / considered wrong by ___" (and we prefer to have references that record who considers X wrong, so as to avoid weasel words).
 * We don't list "most bigger" yet because no-one has added it yet. :) We make sure terms are used in durably archived sources before we include them (which means: books, magazines, etc, because these are archived by libraries and aren't likely to disappear—whereas we don't cite blogs, because they disappear frequently), but "most bigger" has been used in books for hundreds of years, so we should certainly account for it. I've added one quotation to the entry. - -sche (discuss) 08:51, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * While weasel words ought to be avoided in empirical matters,  "exponentially large"  is logically absurd. As mentioned previously, any number that's bigger than one is 'exponentially bigger than' one, so 'exponentially' is redundant. Similarly, any positive number at all can be described as being 'exponentially large.' These claims require no 'authority' to back them up, as anyone who has studied maths to year 10-11 of secondary school should be able to verify their truth.

 * I'm also puzzled by your preference for printed sources rather than blogs. If the aim of the Wiktionary is to "describe not prescribe" then blogs provide a better picture of English "as she are writed," if only because printed matter is usually distorted by proof readers and editors. The durability argument also seems specious to me, as most blogs are captured in archives such as "The Wayback Machine."

 * Furthermore, published works are being distributed electronically at an increasing rate. In contrast, printed books will probably be a curiosity for wealthy collectors in a few decades (at most), like today's mechanical watches. Consequently, it would make sense to embrace blogs and other online sources now, rather than clinging to a  policy that will cause massive disruption when it (inevitably) has to be abandoned. The inclusion of online sources would also allow researchers to track the evolution of English over time, which would differentiate the Wiktionary from the OED rather nicely.

 * Of course, most of these problems could be avoided with a brief Mission Statement outlining the Wiktionary's aims and goals. If such a statement exists, I couldn't find it.

 * Finally, if most bigger is included in the Wiktionary as a superlative, I'll have to stop sending donations and I certainly won't be wasting my time trying to help with the Wikipedia or the Wiktionary. It's all rather unfortunate. Recently I've finally found time to contribute to these projects, yet the first, quite minor  change that I made was  reverted, without explanation, by a petty Wikifiddler who evidently regarded the subject as their personal property. I argued my case and eventually a third party implemented the change, but the 'owner' of the page did not apologies for the abuse he heaped upon me, nor for his claim that I had 'no right' to interfere with what he regarded as his own personal account of a devillishly tricky piece of arcarnum. (It wasn't. The subject is quite well known.)

 * I guess this is why users are constantly being asked for money, rather than their time. StandardPerson (talk) 02:48, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Most exponentially
I think all three of these citations work. --BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 09:13, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Slavery in the Age of Reason: Archaeology at a New England Farm: Although one of the most exponentially burgeoning subfields of historical archaeology today, the study of the African diaspora, its peoples, and their experiences, continues to have a relatively "limited archaeological representation".
 * Structuring the Void: The Struggle for Subject in Contemporary American Fiction: As such, Galápagos is Vonnegut's most exponentially powerful novel.
 * Historical Dictionary of the United States Navy: This applies to the number of ships, and later aircraft and missiles, the number of officers and enlisted personnel, and—most exponentially—its ability to rain destructive force upon an enemy.

 * I disagree. In the first case exponentially can be replaced with rapidly without any change of meaning whatsoever. The second quotation is either incoherent or uses most exponentially as a synonym for most.

 * In the third quotation exponentially may actually serve some purpose. If you check the original article, the authors are discussing the change of military destructive power over time. In this case, it is possible that destructive power as a function of time is most accurately approximated by an exponential function (i.e. the time rate of growth of destructive power is faster than any polynomial one cares to nominate.) If this was the meaning intended by the authors, then most exponentially was not being used as a superlative: rather most exponentially was being used as shorthand for best approximated by an exponentially increasing function of time, or something similar.

 * The first two fragments are examples of otiose and pretentious writing. Both use exponential to suggest a level of precision that is necessarily absent in the remaining text. The third example may be reasonable, but I'd have to read the entire article to see. StandardPerson (talk) 05:35, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Thank you for the follow-up. Although I personally don't care for "most exponentially," the point isn't whether the citations are pretentious or odd, but whether this sort of use is likely to be found by readers who then turn to Wiktionary as a reference. These three citations show that "most exponentially" isn't a one-off or an error, but something that is likely to be encountered. --BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 06:03, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Thank you for the clarification. I had thought about this issue, as you can see in my reply above, where I asked whether the Wiktionary has a Mission Statement that spells out the precise aims of the project. If you could help me with this question, I'd be most grateful.

 * AFAIK, there is no mission statement. The Help page provides a link to an introduction. For the rules that govern what is included, see the Criterion for inclusion page.
 * I can say that Wiktionary is a huge project. The English Wiktionary aims to have all words in all languages, so you will find such words as コブラ in Japanese and kobra in Polish. Also, if you go to the cobra page, you will find translations (click "show" where it says "translations"). Ideally, the goal of Wiktionary is to have all words of all languages defined, and translations of all English words as well. And Wiktionary in general aims to replicate that in every language.

 * As I'm sure you're aware, at least part of the success of the Oxford English Dictionary in academic circles can be attributed to its organisation "on historical principles." While I'm not suggesting that the Wiktionary duplicate the OED, it would be very helpful to have the aims and organising principles of the Wiktionary stated as clearly as those of the OED. (For example, if the Wiktionary is "to describe" word usage then it would make sense to track the evolution of a word's meaning. Furthermore, if the evolution of meanings is to be an important aspect of the project, then the Mission Statement should say so. Personally, I think this is quite an exciting idea: in a century, the Wiktionary might be a valuable tool for academics, without detracting from its general usefulness in the meantime.)

 * I remain puzzled by the claim that the Wiktionary aims to "describe, but not prescribe." As I mentioned earlier, there is tension between this aim and the occasional deference to 'experts' in the Usage Notes.
 * For this, you might ask at the Information Desk. AFAIK, it is because people feel that information is useful though it is not descriptive per se.

 * Furthermore, I've just checked some other common verbs, that are often seen in printed fiction, despite sounding very strange to my (Australian) ear, yet I couldn't see the most frequent forms of these verbs defined here. For example:
 * — "The suit fit / fitted like a glove." The past tense of "to fit" seems to be "fit" in the US, but "fitted" in Australia and England, yet the Wiktionary seems to contain only the latter usage.
 * — "She was laying / lying on the sofa." The most frequent, past continuous form to "to lie" is "was laying" yet I would say and write "was lying" and the Wiktionary agrees! (In the imperative form, Dylan sang "Lay lady lay.." where I, and the Wiktionary, would say "Lie lady lie.."!)
 * At least for these very heavily used verbs, the Wiktionary seems to be prescribing rather than describing.
 * I agree that "fitted" should be addressed, and the "lie/lay" situation should be addressed better as that verb change is undergoing change. In the US, the verb "lie" is used almost exclusively to mean "not tell the truth," with "lay" taking over the other meaning of "lie" (hence the past tense "was laying"). But as we see with songs like "Chasing Cars," the traditional distinction continues on. (In that song, the use in "If I just lay here" is the subjunctive.)

 * I imagine the answer might be that the Wiktionary started from an out-of-copyright (hence old and prescriptive) dictionary and that these entries have not yet been updated to reflect common usage. If this is the case, I would appreciate having my suspicions confirmed. StandardPerson (talk) 02:38, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Although the 1913 Webster's dictionary has been incorporated into Wiktionary, that is not the reason for the lack of updates on those items. The reason is that there is so much work to do and so few people doing it. I hope you will consider making improvements! There is a lot of work for those interested :) --BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 03:29, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Talk:cappuccino

etymology of cappuccino
There seems to be little disagreement among etymologies that this is named after the order of monks, but I'm not sure that it's the color of their robes, as some dictionaries would have it. I was under the impression that the robes were a much darker shade of brown than the foam on cappuccino. I don't drink coffee myself, so I may be getting things mixed up, but I seem to remember seeing one made with the foam drawn up to a point, which then drooped behind it like the tip at the back of a monk's hood. If this is at all characteristic, then the reference would be to the shape of the hood, not its color.

I know that's the case for the nasturtium, the name of which is a derivative of Capuchin in several European languages: it has a spur at the back of the flower that looks like a very long, straight monk's-hood. If it's the hood that's the point of similarity, than the term may go directly back to the hood (Italian cappuccio), rather than by way of the name for the order, which comes from cappuccio.

As for the capuchin monkey, I may be imagining things, but the pattern on the back of the head of at least some species reminds me of a monastic tonsure.

Am I onto something, stretching it, or totally off-base? Chuck Entz (talk) 09:30, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Huh, I always figured it was just because a cappuccino coffee is "hooded" by having the foam on top -- I had no idea about any link to any specific order.
 * In fact, I have to wonder if the mention of the Franciscans isn't just because they're also hooded? The difference in color and the lack of resemblance between an actual monk's hood and the dollop of foam on top of a cappuccino coffee makes me think that this Franciscan etymology is a folk etymology.  Anyone else know more?  -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 15:18, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * According to Nocentini, the cappuccino got its name from the colour of the beverage, which reminds of the colour of monks' habit.
 * Cappuccino is coffee with milk. So it's not the colour of the foam but the colour of the coffee below which looks "franciscan". --MaEr (talk) 17:25, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * Hmm, that's certainly interesting, but there are various other coffee-with-milk beverages where the coffee is essentially the same color, and that are not described as "cappuccino". The main difference between a  and a cappuccino, for instance, is the foam added to the top of a cappuccino.  Perhaps then it's the combination of the color of the coffee and the "hood" of foam on top?  -- Eiríkr Útlendi │ Tala við mig 20:06, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

 * We shouldn't expect too much system behind the naming of coffee flavours. I'm pretty sure that no ISO committee was involved and no well-designed naming conventions were followed when coining the name cappuccino. There are more unlogical names for coffee variations. For example: latte macchiato — why do they call it maculatum; they pour coffee into the milk, not macula or dirt. Or caffè americano — I'm sure that this type of coffee is common also in large parts of Europe, not only in America. Or caffè corretto — why should coffee be corrected; is it wrong without alcohol? And so on. No, we should not expect too much logic. --MaEr (talk) 13:58, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

The contents of the etymology section contradicted to the etymological dictionaries and had no reliable sources. For this reason, I have replaced the contents with a link to the Italian section. The English word cappuccino is borrowed from Italian, and the etymology of the Italian word cappuccino should be discussed in the Italian section, not in the English one. --MaEr (talk) 18:08, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
