Adding word stress

 * You can test it yourself. Look here: [MODULE CALL REDACTED] —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 02:19, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * I see now how you can test it! Does it work for longer texts?

 * Testing on a random news text:
 * TEST: [MODULE CALL REDACTED] --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:34, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

The code is too opaque, I don't understand it!
I am afraid that this code was written to be so clever that I can't understand it. The variable names mean nothing, there are barely any comments to explain what each step does and why. How does the module actually approach the problem? What is the flag parameter for? I would really like this module to be cleaned up and made more readable. This is a wiki after all, so everyone with enough knowledge of Lua should be able to easily edit this, and the last thing we need is more arcane code that nobody except the creator can maintain. 03:22, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Hard to follow indeed.

 * 1) " if not mw.ustring.match(flag,"г") then word=mw.ustring.gsub(word,"([ое][́̀]?)го([́̀]?)$","%1vo%2") " romanises -ого"/"-его" as "-ovo"/"-(j)evo"
 * 2) " word = mw.ustring.gsub(word,"([АОУЫЕЯЁЮИЕаоуыэяёюиеъь][́̀]?)е","%1je"); " romanises Cyrillic "е" as "je", not "e" after any of "АОУЫЕЯЁЮИЕаоуыэяёюиеъь".
 * 3) " word = mw.ustring.gsub(word,"([жшчщЖШЧЩ])ё","%1o"); " romanises "ё" as "o" after any of жшчщЖШЧЩ. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 06:17, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I think I am starting to understand the general idea. But how does the code know when to transliterate г as v? Does it have something to do with the flag parameter? Personally, I don't think the module should be capable of handling such irregular exceptions. It should provide a sensible default, but the default should be able to be overridden if necessary. That is what the tr= parameter would be for, after all... 14:01, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * That beats me, we need Ignatus to reply.
 * Romanising "-ого"/"-его" as "-ovo"/"-(j)evo" should NOT be done via the tool. Russian has words "много", "ого" where "г" is pronounced as expected or /h/ in ого as a variant. Override manually.
 * Same with "Чч" as "š", in что, чтобы, конечно. Override manually.
 * Consistent change - "Ё,ё" as "o" after жшчщЖШЧЩ - OK.
 * Consistent change - "Е,е" as "je" after АОУЫЕЯЁЮИЕаоуыэяёюиеъь - OK. Add ALL capitals Ъ, Ь to the list.
 * Don't use "ɛ" at all! It's reserved for foreign words where consonants (бвгдзклмнпрстфх) (excluding жшчщЖШЧЩ and "цЦ") after "е". I don't follow the logic of the code but override manually. In short, "Э, э" is always "e", "Е, е" is "e" or "je" after АОУЫЕЯЁЮИЕЪЬаоуыэяёюиеъь.
 * This should make the code simpler. Please ask if it's confusing. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 22:34, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, let me reply. Yes, maybe my idea with flags was not good. Simplifications you described can be accepted except it's better to handle -ого/-его by default; most words ending on them are genitives; there just should be a switch-off for cases fhen thy are definitely not, e.g. for . "Что" should be listed as exception since it appears very often, other words with ч=ш may be transliterated manually. Exceptions with е=э are frequent altogether but each word with them is not very, so they will cause need in manual input common. Maybe we should use another way to denote specialities to letters for translit and inflection, like marking them in-place once in template (see my talkpage for suggestion). And, OK, I don't like now that in the module there are different functions for single words and phrases; we should rename phr into tr, and curent tr use innerly if it needed at all. Ignatus (talk) 14:13, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I would prefer it if exceptions are not added to the module at all, but are just supplied with the tr= parameter. So the module is only used to provide a default. 14:22, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

 * The module was rewritten. It transliterates any phrases with function  in simplest manner except that words starting on что and ending on ого and его are always treated specially; if genitives are obviously not awaited, as for, parameter   with any value can be sent to #invoke. Restore finally the doc subpage please and documentate this; I'm going now to do changes to affected templates. Ignatus (talk) 13:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * If the transliterator handles phrases (which it should), then the patterns need to match not just on the beginning or end of the string, but also next to characters that separate words like spaces and punctuation. Currently, it would correctly transliterate "jego" but not "u jego brata". 14:07, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * [MODULE CALL REDACTED] - already fixed. Ignatus (talk) 18:32, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh... ok? I'm confused now because I don't see anything in the code that makes that work... 19:00, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Line 20. %A is used to determine end of word. Ignatus (talk) 19:52, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

There are a few problems
The most obvious one first:
 * (correct): [MODULE CALL REDACTED] (wrong) --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:11, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, not all words can be converted automatically. Since most words ending on -ого and -его in Russian are genitives should-be transliterated via -v-, it's default behaviour for this module. If you are transliterating word which is definitely not genitive (e. g. in ), invoke it with parameter : [MODULE CALL REDACTED]. Ignatus (talk) 09:29, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your efforts.
 * I suggest we should remove lines 17 to 23 altogether:

--handle genitive endings, which are spelled -ego but transliterated -evo if not frame.args['nogen'] then word = mw.ustring.gsub(word, "([ое][́̀]?)го([́̀]?)$","%1vo%2") word = mw.ustring.gsub(word, "([ое][́̀]?)го([́̀]?%A)","%1vo%2") end --Handle common exception words with ч word = mw.ustring.gsub(word, "[А-ЯЁа-яё][А-ЯЁа-яё́̀]*",function (w) return w:gsub("^Что","Što"):gsub("^что","što") end)
 * Let's have a manual override for these kinds of exceptions. The adjective declension tables will have a note on pronunciation of "-ого/-его". As for "что", "чтобы", "что-то", "ничто", "конечно". It's easier to add manual override than rely on the list of exceptions. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 10:17, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I agree. Also, are there words in Russian where the stem ends in -g- and they receive -o as an inflectional ending? Like neuter adjectives? 14:39, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

 * The stem ending in "г" has be preceded by "о" or "е" for this test. That would be "строго" (both an adverb and an adjective form).
 * More arguments in favour of removing "что"'s special treatment:
 * The word "что", pronounced "što" is not always at the beginning of the word, e.g. "кое-что", "ничто". The string "-что-" is pronounced by the rules ("čto") in words like "ничтожный", "ничтожество".
 * There are other words where "ч" is not pronounced as "š" or there are variant pronunciations. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 22:34, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

How can this be used from another Lua module?
It currently requires a frame, which means it can't be used from Lua. Can this be fixed please? 02:03, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I don't think I can help but Module:ko-translit (by Ruakh) is written differently and uses calls to another module - Module:ko-hangul. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:36, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I see. If I were to change this module to work like that one, then all the current uses of the "tr" function from within templates will break. That isn't a bad thing necessarily as long as someone is on standby to fix them all. Would you be so kind? 12:36, 11 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Why are you changing? To convert Russian verb templates to Lua? I can change while there are not so many calls from templates at the moment, judging by . Will we still be able to call the module from templates? --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 12:44, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, it should still be callable from templates. I could also decide not to make this module work the same as Module:ko-translit but then that would be a bit inconsistent. I will ask Ruakh what he thinks. 12:56, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it's annoying that it's so difficult, in the general case, to make a function that works smoothly from both Lua and templates. My general preference is to make functions that work smoothly from Lua, and then if needed to make a wrapper that can be called from templates, since the opposite approach is so obviously bad. But in this specific case, it's easy to make this function work both ways, so I've gone ahead and done so. —Ruakh TALK 14:24, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Module:ru-translit's signature and a call match a bunch of other transliteration modules. You could probably change the code but leave the signature as is? The difference with Module:ko-translit is that it's invoked  (also with optional params) --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 13:10, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I have changed both the code and the signature (this entire discussion is about changing the signature to make it callable from Lua, so your suggestion that "You could probably change the code but leave the signature as is?" doesn't really make sense), but in a compatible way that shouldn't break existing uses. —Ruakh TALK 14:24, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

 * @Ruakh. Thank you. My comment about signature was to CodeCat. By signature I meant the module name, the function name, number and type of parameters - in other words what you just did. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 14:41, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Transliterate ё as jó instead of jo?
When there is an accent mark on some forms of a word, it is a bit strange when there is none on this one. So, блую́ appears as blujú but блуёт appears as blujot without any accent. That seems a bit inconsistent. 16:36, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

You probably mean блюю́ and блюёт? There's a comment on WT:RU TR: The vowel “ё” is normally stressed in native Russian words, but occasionally it may be necessary to show the stress for this letter: “ё́”. A few exceptions are when multipart words with ё have stresses on other syllables (трёхме́стный - three-seater (adj)) and some rare loanwords. It looks a bit ugly with a stress and Russians never put accent on it. No template stresses it here either. The dots serve as a pronunciation indicator, since most of the time "ё" is written as "е" causing confusion. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 16:46, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure how to solve that, then... 16:48, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

 * Let's change jo to jó in the module. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 23:31, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
 * But if it's like you said, then that might cause a word to have two accents in it, if it contains two ё's. 23:33, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

 * It's OK to transliterate трёхме́стный as trjóxméstnyj and четырёхугольник as četyrjóxugólʹnik with a second stress, at least for the module. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 23:37, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

@CodeCat. I like your idea of transliterating ё selectively as you suggested on WT:RU TR. So, for monosyllabic words would be пёс/чёрт would become (čort/pjos) - no accent, polysyllabic пёстрый/жёлтый - pjóstryj/žóltyj, polysyllabic with another ё and an acute accent on another syllable only the syllable with the accent - чёрно-белый - čorno-bélyj? This might take a bit of coding, though but would be great if you could do it, please. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:40, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
 * I have realised that as well... the module would have to split the text into words first, and then put it back together again later. I have looked into a way to make it work, but I'm not really sure how to write the code. Something like чёрно-белый would come out as čórno-belyj, but what should чёрно-бе́лый become? čórno-bélyj or čorno-bélyj? In other words, does the - separate words that have individual stress, or not? And if so, is that for all words or only some? I'm beginning to think that this may not be as easy as it seemed at first. 12:39, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

 * It would be easier if it was designed for single words, wouldn't it? :) Let's consider words with "-" solid words with one accent, so "чёрно-бе́лый" (black and white) should become "čorno-bélyj" but I'll use better examples without "-":
 * "трёхме́стный" (three-seated), "четырёхуго́льный" (quadrangular) ideally should become "trjoxméstnyj", "četyrjoxugólʹnyj"
 * четырёхколёсный (two "ё"), no stress at all (četyrjoxkoljosnyj) or two stresses (četyrjóxkoljósnyj), whatever is easier.
 * Please let me know if you have questions or suggestions. These situations are rare, so it's not critical. Even "trjóxméstnyj", "četyrjóxugólʹnyj" do not look terrible, one might consider the words as having two accents, they are compound words, anyway. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 13:38, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Problems continued
Words with hyphen and passing head argument have problems --user:Dixtosa 18:43, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
 * This should be fixed by adding to all templates. But I wonder why this can't be done at the level of the module. DTLHS (talk) 18:52, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

Capital "Е" - Е́сли, Если
Capital "Е" without a stress mark is not transliterated properly: [MODULE CALL REDACTED] currently gives "Jésli, Esli", it should be "Jésli, Jesli". For some reason in делать из мухи слона the stressed "Е́сли" is "Ésli". --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:02, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Discussion leading up to making -го as -vo and что as što be the default
(moved from Template talk:ru-ux)

I created this template along with to make it easier to create long usage examples in Russian without having to specify manual transliteration to handle adjectival -го, что, and other such things. It is like but supports three extra parameters: (signature at top in case ping isn't sent: Benwing2 (talk) 22:47, 6 January 2016 (UTC)) Benwing2 (talk) 22:47, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * 1) adj: Transliterate -го as -vo
 * 2) shto: Transliterate что as što
 * 3) sub: Apply arbitrary Lua pattern substitutions to the Cyrillic text, esp. to handle cases where е should be transliterated as ɛ.
 * I'm thinking maybe adj= and shto= should be made the default, so if you don't want them you need to turn them off with adj=n or shto=n. What do you think?
 * Also, I'm thinking of adding support for this to templates like ru-phrase and ru-adj. Sound good?

 * I don't mind. Please be aware that чтобы, кое-что, что-нибудь, что-то, что-либо, ничто, etc. also should use "š". These words are derivations but are pronounced regularly - нечто, ничтожество, ничтожный, etc., should use "č". Unrelated words with "-что-" - уничтожать, почтовый, etc. should use "č". It's not so straightforward but probably feasible for you.
 * I would like Russian references to use "russkovo" instead of "russkogo" in Category:Russian reference templates to make it consistent but Vahagn will probably oppose. BTW, "russkogo" is used more often in referenced books but "russkovo" is also present, also in book titles. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:22, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Currently the code for что substitution checks to see if there is a word boundary at both ends, so it will also apply to кое-что, что-нибудь, что-то, что-либо, etc. but not to чтобы or ничто, which I can special-case. Any other such words? Benwing2 (talk) 23:25, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I would need a list of Russian words containing "что". There won't be too many. enwiki words should be sufficient. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:32, 6 January 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, your list confirms what I said, no other words, words with final -его/-ого will also need a list of exceptions ("g", not "v") - много, немного, лого, лего, сого, ого, possibly some loanwords but сегодня and its derivations also use "v".--Anatoli T.

I am thinking of making adj=y and shto=y the default for ru-ux and maybe other things like ru-phrase after accounting for words like много, so you'd have to turn them off with noadj=y or noshto=y.

Possibility of making special-casing for -го and что the default in transliteration
I've now implemented special-casing for -го and что in and made it the default. The special-casing for -го (in genitives) is carefully written: It applies specifically to -ого/-его/-аго at the end of a word or followed by -ся, and it also catches сегодня and words beginning with сегодняшн-, and per Anatoli it has exceptions to ensure that много,немного,лого,лего,сого,ого don't get modified. The special-casing for что is also careful to apply only to что,чтобы,чтоб,ничто as whole words. (Note that "end of word" allows for a following hyphen, so cases like кого-либо, что-нибудь will be handled correctly.) Benwing2 (talk) 20:21, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
 * What do people think about making this the default for all transliteration? This would solve a lot of issues that come up currently in various places, e.g. in бомж, the expansion is rendered with -ogo instead of -ovo. It could still be overridden using tr=, if necessary. The special-casing shouldn't slow things down due to the way it's written. Benwing2 (talk) 20:21, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

 * Let's make it for transcription, too.--Cinemantique (talk) 21:04, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Good job, Benwing2! Yes, making it default is good. It should now be possible to use the same logic for IPA. The version on ruwiki doesn't seem to use "phon=" (it's not in the documented examples) but maybe it should, with a different wording?, what do you think?
 * I think it would still be beneficial to show the phonetic respellings, even if these cases are handled automatically. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 00:03, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree. Benwing2 (talk) 06:45, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Того
(moved from Talk:Того)

I missed this one. Does it need a manual transliteration "Tógo" to distinguish from, which can also be capitalised at the beginning of a sentence? --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 20:40, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * The stress is consistently different, though, can this be used in your logic for the automatic xlit? --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 20:42, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I added stressed То́го to the exceptions. Conceivably I could add unstressed Того there as well, but that would fail if того́ ever occurs at the beginning of a sentence and written without an accent (and того́ is much more common than То́го). Can того ever occur sentence-initially? Benwing2 (talk) 22:30, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, it can. I think for ambiguous cases like sentence-initial "Того" without a stress mark (unknown sense), we should use "g" in translit and [ɡ] in IPA. Adding a stress mark would fix it. (I may have missed other loanwords with final "-ого" or "-его" where it should be "g" but I can't think of others at the moment). --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 22:44, 18 January 2016 (UTC)

All words with "-legged" suffix (like "длинноногий" - "long-legged") are affected. Need to check all -огий adjectives, if they have short forms, then they will need [ɡ] in pronunciation. --Anatoli T.

apostrophes are occasionally used for ъ

 * Hi. This is not a current standard but an alternative spelling, was quite common at various periods. ' can replace ъ in all non-final position and it should produce the same results, especially with the following Cyrillic "е". So, can be spelled as  (currently pod'ézd but it should be transliterated as podʺjézd or pod'jézd (not sure about the actual apostrophe - ʺ or '?) and it is pronounced the same way, it also applies to other iotated vowels but there's no problem with the transliteration at the moment with other letters. I hope it's not hard to implement. Please let me know what you think. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 03:07, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I think the module can be fixed to insert a j as you request between apostrophe and е. Should the apostrophe map to an apostrophe or to ʺ? I think maybe the latter as it is standing in for a hard sign. If so I can just make a change to replace apostrophes with hard signs before transliterating, maybe only in certain circumstances (e.g. after a consonant and before a palatal vowel). Benwing2 (talk) 03:25, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, replace apostrophes with hard signs, ..., only in certain circumstances... - sounds good to me! --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 03:34, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

translation of terms starting with -е
(moved from Talk:-езжать)

 * Hi. I think terms starting with a hyphen and letter should transliterate as "-je" by default, without having to manually transliterate them. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 09:50, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * This can be done. But are we sure? The reason the module transliterates them as -e is so that common suffixes like, , , , etc. get transliterated with -e instead of -je, because the suffixes normally follow consonants, and would normally be rendered with -e in running text. -езжать is an exception in this regard as it normally follows prefixes ending in a vowel. Benwing2 (talk) 15:58, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Good point about suffixes. The correct translit for them would probably be "-(j)e...". Thanks, let's leave it as is. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 02:43, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

I don't have strong opinions on this, but should we use the standard as a baseline for transliterations of pre-1918 letters?

 * @Theknightwho, @Benwing2: We are already deviating from the ISO 9 standard, since it makes sense to have a more phonetic transliteration, you can see all the notes in WT:RU TR. Currently:

 * = = "f". All archaic uses of "ѳ" are replaced with "ф".

Iotated vowels after й
I've noticed official Russian sources will commonly transliterate umlauted vowels in foreign names with iotated vowels, even when this means they come straight after й. This leads to weird spellings like, , , , , which seems to be a pretty recent phenomenon since many of these can easily be attested without the й (e.g. Ювяскюля, Ямся etc.).

Leaving aside е, the only other situations I can think of where this happens is when it immediately follows a stress (e.g., ) which means the  is geminated, so it makes sense to use "jj". That doesn't apply to any of these examples. Should we change the transliteration so as to only give one "j" if previous syllable isn't stressed? i.e., etc.

With е, the situation is the other way around, since we always merge "jj" into "j": e.g., even though this is still pronounced with a geminated. Should we apply the same rule here (which would give allilújje)? This wouldn't affect words where gemination is optional/unpredictable, like. Pinging @Atitarev @Benwing2. Theknightwho (talk) 22:44, 15 January 2024 (UTC)

 * @Theknightwho, @Benwing2: Yes, the easiest approach/solution is to allow a geminated "jj" in these cases: allilújje, fojjé, etc. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 03:13, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Atitarev It would only be allilújje, since I'm proposing this only if it immediately follows a stress (i.e. when it's predictably geminated). has optional gemination since it doesn't follow this pattern, meaning it wouldn't be caught by this. Theknightwho (talk) 03:17, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho: It also makes sense to use "fojjé" to reflect the spelling. and  also have ungeminated [k] but they are spelled with two к's. Same with [l] in, etc. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 04:58, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

 * @Atitarev That's true, but I was thinking of examples like, where we already modify this. After all, the reason I raised this was my concern with things like , with the initial "jj" that isn't reflected in the pronunciation (since it's about consistent orthographic transcription from - in this case - Swedish), as distinct from situations where it has a genuine impact on the pronunciation. Theknightwho (talk) 05:09, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho: жю and шю are tricky but maybe we have to review this exception for consistency? The spelling is "still trying" to make Russians pronounce [ʑʉˈrʲi] (soft), not [ʐʊˈrʲi] for . can also go both ways. However,  has only one standard and common pronunciation [pərɐˈʂut].
 * can still be spelled . Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 05:45, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Atitarev That's true. I suppose we could change it to be "jj" in all cases, though it'll need some bugfixes to Module:ru-common first, because it handles manual transliterations in a special way that always reduces "jje" to "je" in inflection templates, even where it shouldn't: e.g. foreign names that contain . I guess that would be "jjje" after the change.
 * Theknightwho (talk) 06:55, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

Apostrophes
Even though they're rare, apostrophes are a bit overloaded in Russian. They've got three uses: Until now, we'd been treating any apostrophe that came after a consonant and before a vowel as a hard sign. I've just changed that slightly so that it has to be followed by a lowercase vowel, which avoids issues for many French and Italian borrowings:, , etc. I also intend to add a check to make sure the preceding consonant is Cyrillic, since that should catch all terms of type 3. I guess it's still possible to get a false positive of type 2 (possibly in a rare Palladius term), but I think this should be the best balance.
 * 1) As a stand-in for the hard sign, e.g.  (= ).
 * 2) Transliterated foreign names, e.g..
 * 3) As a separator for Russian suffixes attached to terms in the Latin script, e.g..

I've also modified the logic for plain Es, so that they ignore the preceding apostrophe if it's actually an apostrophe (i.e. not a hard sign). You can see examples of both kinds above: (iotated E, since it's really a hard sign),  (plain E, since it's just an apostrophe). However, ** isn't affected, since there's a vowel before the apostrophe. Theknightwho (talk) 13:04, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

Do let me know if you think any of this should be changed at all. Theknightwho (talk) 12:52, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

 * @Theknightwho:

 * @Atitarev Alright. We could handle entries like in the same way we do alternative jo entries, which would automate the correct transliteration on the entry itself. Maybe ru-alt-ъ? Theknightwho (talk) 20:50, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho, @Benwing2: Yeah, I was going to suggest soft redirects. These spellings are not standard, anyway, even if attested. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 21:01, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho I am inclined to agree with Anatoli here; we should simply treat apostrophes in translit as apostrophes and handle the uses as hard signs through some sort of manual marking; soft redirects possibly with your suggestion of ru-alt-ъ seem like a good idea. Benwing2 (talk) 06:02, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Benwing2 Alrighty. I expect the number of pages this applies to is very low, in any case. Theknightwho (talk) 06:16, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho, @Benwing2: It will be equal (potentially) the number of post-1918 reform lemmas with ъ. (This replacement was much less common before 1918.) Not interested in making those entries, though. Cases with hyphens and other symbols also exist. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 06:25, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Atitarev @Benwing2 Makes sense. At the moment, seems to be the only entry we have (going by Category:Russian terms spelled with ').
 * To avoid things getting really messy (especially when you consider has four possibilities), my preferred option would be to remove the "-ё" from the end of the alt-ё head templates, leaving us with ru-noun-alt, ru-proper noun-alt, ru-verb-alt, ru-adj-alt and ru-pos-alt, and to handle all of them with a new Module:ru-alt. This would compare the first parameter (the main spelling) with the page title, to determine which of the four alternative spelling categories the lemma should go in. It would then call the main module for that part of speech.
 * The other advantage of this is that it would stop the alt-ё templates from being as hacky as they are at the moment, since they're done entirely via wikitext (so g2, g3, g4 etc. have to manually specified, and there's a good chance they could get out of sync if parameters are changed, since they'll probably get forgotten about).
 * Theknightwho (talk) 03:37, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Atitarev @Benwing2 Now that Category:Russian terms spelled with ' has had time to populate, it seems that it's only used as a hard sign in one entry + its inflections. For the moment, I think it's safe to remove the special handling from Module:ru-translit and use manual transliterations on those pages, but in future it would be good to integrate it properly into the Russian infrastructure in the same way we handle alt-ё forms. Theknightwho (talk) 08:45, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * @Theknightwho Sounds good to me. If you feel like implementing your proposed solution, go ahead. Benwing2 (talk) 09:44, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

 * @Atitarev They're disallowed in page titles. I've done what we do for quite a few languages, which is to display curly apostrophes, but they don't go in the page name and it's all handled automatically.

Middle Russian
Pinging @Atitarev and @Benwing2. I recently changed things so that none of the special transformations (e.g., etc.) are applied if a langcode is explicitly provided which isn't  ; jo accents are also not applied. The main use of this is for Russian Cyrillisations such as the Palladius transcriptions of Mandarin, but it also affects Russian pidgins, where it's not clear that these transformations actually make sense.

However, this change also changes the handling of Middle Russian (etym-only code ), since it now means none of the transformations are applied. I'm reasonably sure that not all of them make sense for that period, but we should still have a discussion about it. Theknightwho (talk) 15:19, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Talk:カムイモシㇼ

Katakana
User:Eirikr moved this page from カムイモシリ to カムイモシㇼ with a small ㇼ, calling the former spelling a "mistake". The list originally transwiki'd from Wkitionary and now at User:Cnilep/Ainu does use small ㇼ, but Batchelor 1926 uses the ordinary リ. (Shibatani 1990, the other source I've consulted, only uses romaji.) I'm not sure where Eirikr got the version with small ㇼ; as I don't speak Ainu, that may well be commonly used. At minimum, both should be listed as alternative spellings, I think. Cnilep (talk) 02:28, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, small kana are used to spell final consonants. Have a look at, particularly.
 * Using the small kana, mosir would be モシㇼ, while spelling with the regular-sized リ as モシリ would wind up being read as mosiri. Digging around in Batchelor's dictionary (freely available online here), I find he gives both in the entry on page 270, and suggests that “Moshiri often becomes moshir’ in composition”; further analysis suggests that moshir is used when followed by a verb or particle, and moshiri when followed by a noun.  This is very interesting to me, as this is awfully similar to how some Old Japanese nouns worked with emphatic nominative particle .  This also has apparent echoes in Korean.  I haven't spent much time with Ainu, and stumbling upon this makes me wonder if this pattern is present in any regular fashion in other Ainu nouns.  Of course, it's entirely possible that it's just a coincidence.
 * Another example of small-kana use is the small ㇰ used to spell itak, as イタㇰ. Using the regularly sized ク to spell イタク would be read as itaku, which is the plural of itak, i.e. speech.  Note that Batchelor's romaji spellings are itak (page 188) and itaku (page 190), respectively, but his katakana spellings are identically イタク for both entries.
 * I think small kana are a relatively recent typographical development, and that Batchelor probably didn't have them to use. I also note in his dictionary that his orthography, both in kana and in romaji, is biased towards Japanese pronunciation -- for instance, he spells phoneme  as shi, more in line with how a Japanese speaker would pronounce this.  It appears that the standard orthography for Ainu has changed since Batchelor's time, and the convention now is to spell  as si in romaji, and in katakana, to spell final consonants using the small kana variants.  The Ainu Times newspaper shows both romaji and kana conventions in use; poke around their website at http://www.geocities.jp/otarunay/taimuzu.html to see some examples.

Talk:モシㇼ

Is this the same word as モシリ? Batchelor 1926 An Ainu-English-Japanese Dictionary says this:

 * Moshir’
 * モシル
 * Moshiri
 * モシリ
 * 国、世界. 「モシリ」ハ文草ニ於テ、屡「モシル」トナル. 例セバ、モシルホッパ、死ス. n. A country. The world. Moshiri often becomes moshir’ in composition. As:-Moshir’hoppa, "to die."

(etc. I have rendered 国 and 屡 in simplified characters; Batchelor uses traditional ones.)

On the assumption that they are (or in 1926 were) alternative versions of the same word, I have changed モシリ from a redirect to an entry including モシㇼ as an alternative spelling. Cnilep (talk) 02:59, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Derivations
, I removed the following two:

 * (Sakhalin Ainu)
 * (Sakhalin Ainu)

I cannot confirm these in Ainu sources. Do you have any references that include these, with these specific senses?

Separately, the glosses may be a bit off. The term, attested in Batchelor's 1905 dictionary as here (leftmost column, third entry down), is the transitive form of , as indicated by the transitivizing suffix. Yanke mosir thus parses basically as "country where you pull up / haul a boat out".

Meanwhile, is apparently simply "inland, the interior" (Batchelor entry here), as a compound of  +. Yaun mosir would thus be "inland country".

Looking forward to any references you can point me to. ‑‑ Eiríkr Útlendi │Tala við mig 23:55, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

evolution of suffixes
-our to -or ➡ behavior/behaviour

mention that more analytically

 * I'm not sure what point you're trying to make, but the evolution of -our vs. -or began with -or. Most of the affected words came from Latin via early Old French. They were first adopted into English with the Latin -or spelling (sometimes -ur). After the Norman conquest, the English spelling was changed to -our to match the Norman French. Since most people did not know which words were recently borrowed from Norman French and which were older words where -or had long been standard, the conversion to -our was applied also to the older words. Even so, some words continued to be spelled with -or, and many people (such as Shakespeare) freely mixed the two spellings. Then the Americans (Noah Webster) reverted the -our spellings to the original English -or. —Stephen (Talk) 13:15, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

-a a a a a, -ah etc. (informal, semi-standardized)

Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

 * Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
 * Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. The most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
 * If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide to Wikipedia users useful.
 * The FAQ aims to answer most of your remaining questions, and there are several help pages that you can browse for more information.
 * A glossary of our technical jargon, and some hints for dealing with the more common communication issues.
 * If you have anything to ask about or suggest, we have several discussion rooms. Feel free to ask any other editors in person if you have any problems or question, by posting a message on their talk page.

You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage. This shows which languages you know, so other editors know which languages you'll be working on, and what they can ask you for help with.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! If you have any questions, bring them to the Information desk, or ask me on my talk page. If you do so, please sign your posts with four tildes: ~ which automatically produces your username and the current date and time.

Again, welcome! —Angr 07:07, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

lobogó
Hi, my ety dictionary says it's from the verb lobog (to wave, flutter). Where did you get your information? Thanks. --Panda10 (talk) 21:12, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I didn't notice the -ó ending, as I was taking this etymology from a certain web source, which listed this word as the root word. However, that etymology would work for lobog instead, as the -ó ending obviously forms the present participle. In any case, lob- must be the root; -og is most likely a repetitive suffix; I should've noticed that earlier. Here's the source: . --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 00:31, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I corrected the Hungarian entry. You may want to correct the other two entries (lipp and lippu) where you referred to lobogó. I don't think they are related. --Panda10 (talk) 11:41, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I did correct the Finnish and Estonian entries (I'm assuming that they're both alone onomatopoeic and formed from the same stem, as they're both strikingly similar). It appears that the supposed Sami cognate word is probably onomatopoeic but formed seperately, unless if an abstract sound change occured (so I corrected that also). --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 21:38, 13 April 2013 (UTC)

szak
The word éjszaka does not contain a diminutive suffix -ka. Please check the ety there. I'm not sure where you are getting this information but I am getting a little concerned because you are not providing references. My ety source is Gábor Zaicz, Etimológiai szótár: Magyar szavak és toldalékok eredete, Tinta Könyvkiadó, 2006, ISBN 963 7094 01 6. It describes the ety of szak differently.

 * What etymology does Zaicz provide? There was no etymology concerning the "-a" when I first checked it...But considering how late you're resource was published, it's probably more likely. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 21:10, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

 * I'll try to add references from now. I'm used to editing on IMSLP, where references aren't required. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 21:33, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Proto-Uralic
Hi, thank you for your work on Proto-Uralic. I fixed your entry, you can see here what I changed:. I hope that helps you. Could you please fix the other entries similarly if you have the time? 01:39, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Of course! I apologize for not formatting these things correctly; I had copied these templates from other people who used them. Oh well... --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 02:31, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Oh yeah, I had another question: none of my sources list which dialect of Komi the entries are taken from, so what category would I use? Thank you. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 02:55, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

 * Same thing with Enets, as some of my sources did not differentiate between Forest and Tundra.--Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 03:04, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure. This problem does occasionally crop up when the sources are not as specific as the language codes we use. We had it some time ago for Gaulish as well. Gaulish has two ISO codes, for cisalpine and transalpine Gaulish. But that didn't work for us so we decided to make our own code for general Gaulish. Maybe the same could be done for these languages as well, but I don't know enough about them to say for sure. Maybe you could ask at the Beer Parlour? 11:50, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 * What is the character ᴕ that you added into the title of Appendix:Proto-Uralic/mᴕnᴈ-? Unicode says it's an o-u ligature, so is this really "mounᴈ-"? 12:04, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

 * I honestly have no clue, and considering that most linguists agree that Proto-Uralic had no dipthongs, I doubt that it really is meant to be taken as an o-u ligature. This entry was taken from a database which simply sourced the books in which these reconstructions and words were listed, so I have no way of knowing what was it really means. One publication online that I've found sources that symbol as used for an unknown vowel, but I'm not sure if the linguists who reconstructed this word meant it in that way. Perhaps it's a ligature referring to a vowel varying freely between o and u?--Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 23:24, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * There is an IPA vowel symbol ɤ, and a consonant symbol ɣ. But I wonder if you're not familiar enough with the conventions of Proto-Uralic, should you really be creating these entries? 23:34, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm quite aware that an o-u ligature is definitely not a conventional usage in reconstructed Proto-Uralic forms. It appears to be a mystery that any reputable source would use a character like this, unless if it's being used in a special way by this one linguist. Unfortunately, I don't have direct access to the actual book which listed this reconstruction. Either way, what makes you think that I'm not aware of Proto-Uralic conventions? I simply copy and pasted this entry from the database to make things easier (typing out so many entries on your own is a complete waste of time). It is most likely a close-mid back unrounded vowel (ɤ) based off of the descendant word forms; I just didn't want to type it out this way, as I can't confirm it on my own. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 00:50, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * What I think happened is that they used the wrong character, which visually resembles the character that is actually intended, but isn't the real one. It could also be a scanno. It seems more likely that ɤ or ɣ was intended. Wikipedia uses ɤ as a synonym of ë/ï, but makes no mention of ᴈ either. I think that it would be useful to establish a standard spelling convention for Proto-Uralic words, and detail it and the varieties found in sources on About Proto-Uralic. We already have similar conventions for other languages, see WT:AINE, WT:AGEM, WT:ASLA. 01:14, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I'll see about starting one; I'm not a very active editor on Wiktionary, but I'll see if I can devote some time to creating one. I do agree that it was a scanno, however. For now, I'll move the page and replace the o-u ligature with a close-mid back unrounded vowel. It may need to be changed to an ë once a standard spelling convention is established. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 21:14, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * The symbol ᴕ is traditional UPA notation for "back vowel of uncertain quality". Similarly, ɜ is "any vowel of uncertain quantity". These probably shouldn't be used though, they're mainly used in old sources from before Proto-Uralic had been reconstructed in detail. Reliably constructed roots can usually be found in literature down to a specific shape.
 * Also can we please not add phonetic transcription of languages as entries? There are by now e.g. literary standards for all the Ob-Ugric and Samoyedic languages, and they're in Cyrillic. These are what should be linked as entries (e.g. Tundra Nenets варӈэ, Northern Mansi урин), not phonetic transcriptions (such as βa̭rŋä̆è͔, ūrin). --Tropylium (talk) 18:42, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Incorrect Hungarian etymologies
Hi, I went through your recent Hungarian etymology changes and had to correct most of them. It seems that your resource is not reliable. Please stop working from unreliable websites. Only good etymology books should be used. --Panda10 (talk) 22:10, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Actually, since this is the second time this has happened, I think I'll just stop adding etymology for now. Probably a smarter idea at this point, especially considering that some the sources I've been using have already angered a few editors... --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 22:14, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Correction: I will be more cautious with my etymologies. --Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 04:22, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I just zapped your etymology for, which was frankly quite substandard (there are no Hungarian words beginning with p- of Finno-Ugric origin; Northern Sami bulvvar is clearly a recent loan akin to German ). May I ask what is the source you've previously been using?
 * Also if you wish to double-check your etymologies, there are some more reliable web resources available, e.g.
 * Johanna Laakso's list of Finnish-Hungarian etymologies; any F-H comparision out there that doesn't appear here or in a more detailed scholarly source should be taken with a large grain of salt.
 * the Álgu etymological database: lists numerous common Uralic etymologies with detailed literature, though for the most part only for words found in the Samic languages.
 * the Tower of Babel etymological database: basically the Uralic Etymological Dictionary (UEW) digitized, so somewhat unreliable by this day, but handy for checking cognates etc.
 * Still, it's nice to see more people working on Uralic etymology on WT. Remind me to ask you and a few other people to have a discussion at some point on some ground rules on what Proto-Uralic transcription scheme to use, how appendix pages should be formatted, etc. :) --Tropylium (talk) 18:27, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
 * For that source, I used a website created by a math professor on Magyar cognates (obviously not the best source); I can't even recall the web address. After Panda10 made several corrections and comments on my etymologies, I went around, fixing and replacing a lot of my incorrect etymologies with correct ones. If you look at the time I made that edit (which you must have not), I made it quite a long time ago and seem to have overlooked it since. My mistake. Now, pretty much the only sources that I use are the ones you have listed above. To confirm it, all of my recent edits are sourced with either the sources listed above, or use a source which one of the above sources use. Nevertheless, thanks for your insight on the UEW, which does use old entries, most being the outdated, 1898 reconstructions. I only wish there was a more updated database like it. I guess Álgu does satisfy my needs for this, but the problem with it is that it only lists Proto-Uralic reconstructions that have descendants in the Sami languages, as you have already mentioned.--Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 20:19, 1 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Concerning the Uralic transcription scheme, if you look at one of the earlier sections of my talk page, you will see that CodeCat has already talked to me concerning its creation. I think that it would be in our best interests to start one ASAP, and to also make more pages for FU and U reconstructions.--Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 20:19, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Guidelines for Proto-Uralic
Hi,

I've created Wiktionary talk:About Proto-Uralic for putting together guidelines on the topic. I'm CC'ing a bunch of users I know to have done work related to Uralic etymology. Feel free to pass this message further along too. --Tropylium (talk) 20:20, 1 December 2013 (UTC)

Etymologies
You're editing many etymology sections of Hungarian words, which is great, we still have a lot of entries without etymology sections, thanks for your work. However, I think future readers would appreciate to know the source of all this information so they can judge its reliability based on the date of the source, the authors and so on. Etymology is a much deeper and "scholarly" field than just providing definitions and inflections, so I think references are quite important here. You can create a reference templates similar to and include them in the etymology section, like

Then insert a References section at the bottom of the Hungarian section containing. Thanks! Qorilla (talk) 22:16, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

 * I understand, and I have been adding references where I can. Ignore that last, false edit.--Lisztrachmaninovfan (talk) 22:19, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not just that, you've been adding many things, e.g. at magyar. It's really easy to create these reference templates and you probably don't have so many sources anyway, so it doesn't take long at all. Then when you edit an etymology, you just insert this small snippet there. It really helps with traceability. Qorilla (talk) 22:26, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi ! I reverted your edits to these pages after i went back and confirmed what those reconstructions are affirmed to mean. Even though they are not direct in line of the etymology of English knob, those words are still believed to have carried that sense, and this is why we do not show knob in the Descendants.

Before you "correct" Greek transliterations, please look at WT:AGRC. Thanks! Chuck Entz (talk) 07:32, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, got that a little switched around: You can check WT:AEL for modern Greek transliteration, but for all I know your correction could be ok. It's using the same transliteration on the Ancient Greek that's a problem- more specifically, the "ŷ" Chuck Entz (talk) 07:41, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Hi Chuck, thanks for your message. It was perfectly timed, as I had just come across WT:AGRC, and had just finished absorbing those details (e.g., use the "scientific" translit scheme for Ancient Greek, very limited diacritics in the translit, etc.), when your message popped up.  I will go back and "correct my corrections" pronto (I made 2 or 3 such changes).

 * I must admit that was more than a little shocked when I saw the overly simplistic romanization rules on WT:AGRC (About Ancient Greek). I was then very relieved to find the WT:GRC TR (Ancient Greek romanization and pronunciation) page, which had a lot more of what I had expected to find.

 * Most importantly, the latter page opens with the statement, "This page is an extension of About Ancient Greek." Fair enough. However, there is no link to, nor even a mention of, WT:GRC TR on WT:AGRC!  Surely that would be an oversight?

 * Given my opening track record yesterday, I'm sure as hell not going to make any changes on those pages! But IMHO, I think the "mini-transliteration" table on WT:AGRC, being as incomplete as it is, should be removed from that page entirely and replaced with a link to the detailed "extension" page. Thoughts?  Thanks again,  Grolltech (talk) 10:33, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

oxymoron
Oxymoron is a Late Latin form, which is how it came into English. Classical Latin did not exist in the fifth century. The OED gives: "< post-classical Latin oxymoron ‘figure of speech in which a pair of opposed or markedly contradictory terms are placed in conjunction for emphasis’ (5th cent.; also oxymorum)". Ƿidsiþ 06:52, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Template:ant-top
The reason no one has noticed about this template is that it's only used in the one entry. The user who created it is notorious for creating unnecessary junk. I just removed it, along with most of the antonyms, which seem to be antonyms for stupid, which isn't the same thing. Chuck Entz (talk) 14:44, 21 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks, Chuck Entz, I just did the same for synonyms. Grolltech (talk) 19:03, 21 September 2014 (UTC)

"Oxymoron" is the opposite of contradiction.
Since you seem to be interested in good use of language, if not indeed in a wholesale gunpoint Rectification of Names, couldst join my crusade to save "oxymoron"? An oxymoron is not a contradiction. The word exists exactly to convey the meaning a non-contradiction made out of contradictory elements. Cheers, David Lloyd-Jones (talk) 02:16, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

Talk:щека

English Translit
WTF is ščeká? That's not English. The staf for staf translit in English would be shchyeka. Said more like shyika or sheeka.

щ = shch but often sounds like sh е = ye but sometimes said like ye or ee к = k a = a

ё = yo and is stress'd и = i ... short; thus щёки is said like shyoki with the stress on the yo.

--AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 11:37, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Although the pronunciation is IPA /ɕːɪ'ka/, the transliteration system that we use is ščeká. There are numerous transliteration systems for Russian, and щ=šč is favored by most of them. It’s the one we use here. Our transliteration for щёки is ščóki. The consonant щ cannot be softened or hardened by a following vowel or yers, and ё in that word is pronounced like о. See Russian transliteration. —Stephen (Talk) 21:53, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

 * To be blunt, the wikt translit sucks. This is an English wiki and those are not English letters. In all the Russian classes I hav taken and in the few years that I work'd with Russian translit professionally ... it was NEVER written like that for English speakers. This is the English wikt. How do you justify noting non-English letters in a translit for English speakers?

 * Further, the ё is said with a y-glide and is long. 'Yo' shows that y-glide. Truthfully, it would be hard to say it without a y-glide in щёки so it likely wouldn't make a difference in the way to say it if you wrote 'yo' or 'o' as long as the English speaker knew that the 'o' was long ... There is no doubt that it is long with the yo. But if you doubt that there is a y-glide there, I can point you to where the phrase is said ... and I hear a y-glide when it is said.

 * It does make a difference if a person is working from the translit (which I did a lot of) and would hav to go look the word up in a Russian wordbook (this was in the days before Google Translate). However, for byspel, if I go to Google Translate and type in shchyoki (Russian to English) it translits it щёки and then translate it to cheeks. If I type in shchoki, it translits it to щоки ... which isn't even a word AFAIK. And if I put in ščeká ... it's worthless. It doesn't do anything. That shows why having translit in English insted of some gobblygook is meaningful.
 * --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 17:28, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

 * The y-glide you're hearing is in your own mind. We discussed all the different transliteration systems years ago, and we discussed them for years before finally settling on the system that we have now. You're beating a dead horse. If you don't like it, you don't like it. Nobody likes everything. This is the system we use. The vast majority of us do not like your system and we will not be adopting it. I am finished with this discussion, I won't bother to read any further responses here. —Stephen (Talk) 19:16, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

 * Well if you want to swap barbs, then my answer is that if you don't hear the y-glide then you're half deaf. However, that's somewhat irrelevant as a translit is not a pronunciation guide (tho it's good when it works out the same). But it is misleading to translit 'o' for 'ё'; they are not the same. Russian has an 'о'; it's another letter.

 * Anent the wikt way of translit, you're right ... I don't like it and will keep on ridiculing it for that it is worthy of ridicule. It smacks of academic snobbery. You're writing non-English letters in what should be a translit for English as if it were some kind of special code above that of the folk. Also, I'v shown you how having a good translit in English letters, rather than the gobblygook that wikt notes, makes a difference. However that seems meaningless to you. Feel free to get back to me when you come up with a justification, that makes sense, for putting non-English letters in a translit for English speakers.
 * --AnWulf ... Ferþu Hal! (talk) 12:39, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

 * This is the Wiktionary transliteration standard and we are not changing it, no matter what you hear or what Google Translate or other applications do. Sorry but you'll have to either accept our standards or leave Russian entries alone. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 13:03, 19 March 2013 (UTC)
 * I find this comment bizarre. AnWulf, you edit Old English which also uses non-English letters. Yes turning transliteration into pronunciation misses the whole point, as we might as well then not given transliterations at all. Transliterations aren't English so why would you expect them to use English letters? Do you object to Arabic being written in Arabic script because Arabic isn't English? If anything, you make it sound like Russian is doing something wrong because it's not English. No Russian isn't English, do we need to discuss that? Mglovesfun (talk) 13:11, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

can someone verify the accent-d forms?
Zaliznyak lists f' and f. Ruwiki lists only f'. Do the accent-d forms really exist? And is the distribution of forms labeled "obsolete" and "colloquial" correct? Benwing2 (talk) 02:59, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Welcome!

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

 * Entry layout explained (ELE) is a detailed policy documenting how Wiktionary pages should be formatted. All entries should conform to this standard. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing page for a similar word, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
 * Our Criteria for inclusion (CFI) define exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary, though it may be a bit technical and longwinded. The most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
 * If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide to Wikipedia users useful.
