Copying/creating templates
Template:!! here appears to be the same as v:Template:!!, w:Template:!!, and commons:Template:!!. With respect to creating templates here, if I copy a template from say Wikipedia and bring it here for use. Do I need to cite where I copied it from? Or, is there a general okay to copy templates and if necessary modify here for use? --Marshallsumter (talk) 18:28, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
 * When you copy a template from Wikipedia (or Wikisource, Wikibooks, etc.), please at least link the original template in the edit summary. If nothing else, if anything goes wrong with the template, we'll use that information when discussing whether the template could be fixed or deleted.
 * Also, Special:Import is supposed to import pages with the full history for crediting purposes, but it seemed to be broken last time I checked. I don't know if it's working now, maybe someone else does. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 18:41, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

man
Is it usually taught in schools that man can refer to a human being of either sex? -- Romanophile ♞ (contributions) 05:05, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't know. But we go on actual usage, not what is taught. SemperBlotto (talk) 06:44, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I think throughout my schooling my teachers may have mentioned a few times that "man" can refer to humans in general. I was certainly never taught that "man" must refer to a male. --WikiTiki89 19:42, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Newer books don't seem to do that; it leaps out at me as quite dated when I see it. Schools here would probably avoid it like the plague now. Equinox ◑ 01:53, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

 * A man can only imagine the hissyfit progressives would throw if a school dared to tell their students that it can. — Ungoliant (falai) 02:01, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

 * In my experience "man" being used to refer to humans in general, like "mankind" in place of "humankind", are past English usage and no longer current usage, just as we no longer describe an exclamation as an "ejaculation" in current usage even though that was once common. When I was in school in the late 70s and early 80s, I sometimes encountered books from earlier decades (or centuries) which used "man" and "mankind" in the manner formerly common, but I was not taught that was acceptable usage for my own writing. More accurate language seems like the better choice to me, so I'm in favor of the current usage of "people" or "humans", and "humankind" or "humanity". —GrammarFascist (talk) 16:19, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Are you serious ?? Or are you just wishfully dreaming ? Of course is still current--it may not seem as overly hyper-sensitive as "humankind" among a few fringe groups, but is still the general term. Talk about being too cutting edge. Ow. It amazes me the things I read here sometimes... :) Leasnam (talk) 22:18, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Don't lose faith in mankind just because of one Grammar Fascist. --WikiTiki89 03:30, 3 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Unless I'm badly misreading it, the question was about what is taught in schools, not what should be taught in schools. —GrammarFascist (talk) 17:08, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
 * But your answer didn't mention schools. --WikiTiki89 18:19, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
 * In what way does the sentence beginning "When I was in school in the late 70s and early 80s..." not count as mentioning schools? —GrammarFascist (talk) 07:31, 8 November 2015 (UTC)

two questions
In English we use the term "X education" to describe some key types of teaching, e.g. early childhood education. What do we call these two types of teaching: 1) The teaching of morals and ethics in the classroom. 2) Teaching of children by their parents in the home about what is considered appropriate behaviour, ways of thinking, etc. Thanks. ---> Tooironic (talk) 02:24, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

 * For #1, if you mean what I think you mean, then for me (UK, 1990s) it was PSE (personal social education). Singapore has CCE (character and citizenship education). Some countries just call it citizenship. Equinox ◑ 02:30, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * If what you say is true, we are missing a sense at citizenship. I can't think of what the Australian equivalent might be, if there is one. ---> Tooironic (talk) 02:40, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Ooh, I just found character education, this looks very close. ---> Tooironic (talk) 02:41, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Also civics. Equinox ◑ 02:50, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

"Download as PDF" does not include translations. Shouldn't this be changed? --Spiros71 (talk) 08:39, 13 October 2015 (UTC)

Translations
Hi, I'm trying to fulfil some of the Welsh translation requests (using the assisted 'add translation' box - as you can probably tell, I know precious little about correctly formatting things manually). I'd like to add a translation for 'lung' (noun, a biological organ that extracts oxygen from the air). In Welsh, the normal form of this is 'ysgyfaint', which is plural, denoting the lungs as a pair. In both of the dictionaries I've checked (Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru and Geiriadur yr Academi), 'ysgyfaint' is given as the lemma. The singular 'ysgyfant' is only noted as 'occ.' (Geiriadur yr Academi) and 'diw.' (recent/modern, GPC). When I'm adding the translation of 'lung', therefore, should I be adding the singular 'ysgyfant' or the more widely used plural, and lemma, 'ysgyfaint'? I'm afraid I don't how to add a UTC timestamp to this message. Glassapple (talk) 14:33, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I'd use as the lemma form; the GPC entry makes it pretty clear that  is a back-formation, and not even a particularly common one. In fact  even has a plural of its own, /, which presumably means "pairs of lungs", suggesting that before the back-formation was created,  wasn't even felt as a plural. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 16:27, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Glassapple (talk) 16:52, 14 October 2015 (UTC)

Android app for .ogg files?
Is there any app I can download for my Android cell phone to create .ogg audio files that could be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons for Portuguese pronunciations? (I don't have a microphone for my PC, I could borrow one easily but that'd not be my first option)

The apps I have on my cell phone create mp3 files, so alternatively, a software for my PC that can convert mp3->ogg easily in a bulk would be acceptable too.

I checked this page but it didn't seem helpful for Android apps: --Daniel Carrero (talk) 11:54, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

Entry for "that guy"
I created "that guy" yesterday. It was only my second new entry here, and I suspect I've done at least something wrong in formatting and/or filling it in. I would appreciate it if a more experienced Wiktionarian (is that the term?) would look at it and give me some feedback and/or make corrections. Thanks in advance, GrammarFascist (talk) 16:11, 26 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I think you've done a great job ! I made one addition though, I added the plural form Leasnam (talk) 22:13, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the encouragement, Leasnam, and for your edit. (I had actually put the plural in originally, but DixtosaBOT removed it.) Thanks also to Ungoliant MMDCCLXIV, Dixtosa, Wikitiki89, Ēloquiō, and Sonofcawdrey for their edits to the entry. Apologies if the notifications annoyed any of you; I'm used to social norms at English Wikipedia and still learning my way here. —GrammarFascist (talk) 17:26, 6 November 2015 (UTC)

Are there non-yearly holidays?
Not a linguistic question as such, but it is about categorising terms. Do all holidays or other observances, in all languages, occur once every year, or are there also ones that occur with a different frequency? —CodeCat 01:34, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Well, Leap Year Day is the first thing that comes to mind. I would think there would also be irregular observances based on astronomical events in some cultures that pay attention to such things (would you count a blue moon, for instance?). Then there are various one-time observations for such things as significant occurrences in the life of a monarch, significant anniversaries or events such as deaths, achievements, or honors. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:29, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
 * ? SemperBlotto (talk) 09:04, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Since the lunar calendar is 11 days shorter than the solar calendar, it's possible for a holiday that occurs annually in the lunar calendar to occur twice in the same Gregorian year. But that's probably not what you meant. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 19:47, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
 * No, that's still more or less yearly. —CodeCat 20:12, 8 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Some Jewish holidays that are not yearly: (weekly),  (monthly),  (every seven years). --WikiTiki89 15:36, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
 * And as for ... never mind. (-)
 * To some extent, it actually is a linguistic question. I've had people come to me and seriously posit that Shabbat can't be a "holiday", because it comes every week. But I think there are really plenty of counterexamples here already. StevenJ81 (talk) 21:54, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
 * There are festivals in Ancient Rome (, for instance) and in India celebrated more than once a year, though one could interpret them as groups made up of individual once-a-year festivals.The same goes for the two Eids in Islam. Chuck Entz (talk) 01:28, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

How to add alternate meaning and respective alternate etymology to word "argh"
I would like to edit the entry for "argh" to also show the middle English sense of "cowardly, lazy, slow, wretched", but I am not sure what the best practice implementation is. What is the correct way to add both an alternate etymology and a corresponding alternate meaning? Thanks! --Mavaddat (talk) 07:16, 10 November 2015 (UTC) in the end. --Dixtosa (talk) 19:38, 19 December 2015 (UTC)

Potestatemology - The study of power
I would like to suggest that a word be added to Wiktionary.

That word is "Potestatemology" which is the study of power.

It is comprised of the Latin root for 'power', which is "potestatem" and the suffix for study of "ology."

An example of usage would be:

Policy makers must study all the categories of Potestatemology when formulating strategies that deal with the motivations of terrorists; not just ideology and politics.

Potestatemology would include political science, ideology and the psychology of power (to name a few).
 * We are not interested in invented words. Feel free to use the word yourself. If it catches on and other people find it useful then it will get into print (or even into blogs) - then, and only then, will we include it. SemperBlotto (talk) 08:36, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Replacing a conjugation table and associated links
Hello, everyone!

I noticed that the conjugation table for the verb entreter in Portuguese is wrong (since it's not a regular verb, but an irregular verb conjugated like ter) and I'd like to change it. If I do just that, will the links that were previously created for the non-existent verb forms disappear from Wiktionary too (for example, "entreto", which should be "entretenho")? Is there any way to undo this issue or to delete those pages later? Thank you in advance. Luisftd (talk) 21:34, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Adding lots of Nyunga words
Hi all,

I'm a bit new around here. I spend most of my time on Wikisource, only coming over to Wiktionary to add words or citations that garner my notice in some way. But now I have fallen in with a new crowd: a group of academics, Wikimedians, and others who are working to add material to Wikimedia projects relating to Noongar culture and language. The first idea was to work towards creating a Wikipedia in Nyunga language (oh, um, yes: there are various spellings for this), but then the first part of that comes to be figuring out a dictionary of the language. Thus, hullo to Wiktionary! :-)

Basically, there are a bunch of wordlists available, that have been recorded over the last 180 years or so, and we're adding those that we can to Wikisource. There are also a bunch that are more modern, which can serve as source material but of course cannot be made available verbatim online. I've got a bunch of questions about using oral histories as sources... :-) Anyway, I've taken some of these sources and tried to produce Wiktionary entries from them.

The results, and various other notes, are at User:Samwilson/Noongarpedia. I'd love anyone's feedback there.

Thanks! :-) — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 10:54, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Hi Sam! I recommend that you take a look at our WT:Criteria for inclusion, especially the section WT:CFI. Note that Noongar will certainly not be considered a "language well documented on the Internet", and thus will not be subject to our stricter requirements for such languages. --WikiTiki89 19:07, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Yes, certainly not a well-documented language, and it's hard to find actual citations (i.e. that aren't just part of word lists; although some of them give short usage examples). I wasn't quite sure if the LDL template should be added to every Nyunga entry; should it? There's also going to be a fair bit of cleaning up of these entry templates I've made, especially with regard to alternate spellings. Thanks for your help! — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 23:43, 22 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, it should. You may find that entries that should have actually don't have it, but they all should have it. --WikiTiki89 15:37, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Ah cool, thanks. I'll update all existing ones with, and add it to the text of the new entries. — Sam Wilson ( Talk • Contribs ) … 23:44, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

I and J in German fraktur
In some German frakturs I and J have the same shape. In many cases, especially in case of German words, it's clear what's the correct letter. But what's with e.g. Iambos/Jambos (alternative form of Jambus, meaning iambus, iamb)? In some older or newer books maybe antiqua is used for that, so it's clear which form they use, but it could be that it was earlier Jambos (-os is a common Latin ending) and nowadays Iambos (making it more Greekish - such forms are usually less common). So, are such sources which use one character for I and J ignored as it's not clear whether it's I or J? Or is it ℑ𝔞𝔪𝔟𝔬𝔰 (well, there's 𝔍 too...)? -84.161.40.96 12:55, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

 * If no clues exist to suggest whether a letter is I or J, I would interpret it as whichever of the two German uses now. In this case, in addition to the fact that the word is now spelled with J, we have one strong and one weaker clue that the ambiguous glyph is J. The weaker clue is that several books which otherwise use Fraktur set some or all instances of the word in Antiqua, and use J:
 * 1642, Johann Peter Titz, Zwey Bücher von der Kunst hochdeutsche Verse und Lieder zu machen, chapter 10:
 * ... das erſte Glied des Verſes vor dem Abſchritt einerley / und das ander nach dem Abſchritt auch einerleyPedesbegreiffet. So helt infolgenden das erſte theil [sic]dreyJambos, das ander ſo vielTrochæos.
 * 1827, Gesammelte Werke der Brüder Christian und Friedrich Leopold Grafen zu Stolberg, volume 17, part 1:
 * [uses the same character for ?ambos, ?iamben, Insel, and Jahr, but then it has in Antiqua Archilochum proprio rabies armavit Jambo]
 * The strong clue is that numerous Fraktur books which use ?ambos also use jambisch(e) and none use iambisch(e). In contrast, all but one of the handful of books which turns up are Antiqua. Many books use ?ambos in contexts that suggest J is meant, and only one uses it in a context that suggests I is meant. Therefore, it is safe to conclude that ?ambos is Jambos.
 * If the only attestations of a word provide no clues as to whether I or J is meant (the word died out without ever being spelled in Antiqua), it may be appropriate to have two entries (one a hard or soft redirect to the other), as is done for ח𐰂𐰵𐰆𐰺𐰇𐰢/𐰸𐰵𐰆𐰺𐰇𐰢 and ᚅᚓᚆᚆᚈᚑᚅᚅ/ᚅᚓᚆᚆᚈᚑᚅᚄ.
 * - -sche (discuss) 03:40, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

 * Thanks, -sche. (BTW: Fraktur "Jambos" and "iambisch" can be found too, as in books.google.de/books?id=zGeTciCzC6IC&pg=PA290, so one could assume that it is "Iambos" there.) -84.161.37.161 18:19, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

Simply adding a reference to the use of a word.
Reading an old book I have found a word I did not know the meaning of. Wiktionary has the word with no description but one reference to its use. I have found a use of it from 1582. Without spending hours learning all about Wiktionary, how do I simply post a reference to the source I have come across? I don't want a lesson, just the simple steps. I am not in possession of the standard of English required to be an enthusiastic contributor.Hawley1560 (talk)
 * Your English sounds like that of a native, so I wouldn't be worried about being unable to be a good contributor if I were you. If this book has an example of the word being used, you can can add it as a quotation (our guidelines on that are at WT:Quotations, and if those seem too confusing, you can type it up here and I'll show you how to format it on the actual entry. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 20:22, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

"Peace" in various dialects of Arabic
How do you write "peace" in the below dialects of Arabic?

Levantine Mesopotamian Kurmanji Armenian Syrian Turkmen (Azeri) Modern Standard Arabic

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
 * Half of those aren't dialects of Arabic: Kurmanji is an Indo-European language distantly related to Persian, Armenian is its own branch of the Indo-European languages, Turkmen and Azeri are separate Turkic languages. Armenian, especially, has very little in common with Arabic: the Armenians are Christian, and have a history going back thousands of years. It's been strongly influenced by Persian languages and Turkish, but most of its contact with Arabic has been second-hand through other non-Arabic languages such as the above.

This template creates a conjugation table for verb forms used in literary Welsh. Many of these forms are not encountered in the colloquial language. This template is for verb roots ending in e.

Definition of parameters

 * (root) = the root of the verb. This is also the second parameter used in . This is the only obligatory parameter. If the root ends in nn or rr, put only one n or r here and use  (see below).
 *   the "short" form of the 3rd person singular present/future, i.e. the form that does not end in -a. Enter  if no short form is attested. Do not use this parameter if the form is identical to the root.
 *   an alternative short form of the 3rd person singular present/future. Use this parameter only if the verb has two "short" variants of the 3rd person singular form.
 *   the "short" form of the 2nd person singular imperative, i.e. the form that does not end in -a. Enter  if no short form is attested. Do not use this parameter if the form is identical either to the form specified in   or to the root.
 *   Enter  if the 3rd person singular present/future is not attested to have a long form in -a. Enter   if the 2nd person singular imperative is not attested to have a long form in -a. Enter   if neither of these forms is attested to have a long form in -a.
 *   Enter  if only the verbal adjective in -edig is attested. Enter   if only the verb adjective in -adwy is attested. Enter   if neither verbal adjective is attested. Omit this parameter if both verbal adjectives are attested.

Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/utro

Etymology
From, from , from.

Baltic cognates include 🇨🇬, dial. , 🇨🇬, . Indo-European cognates include 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 (presumably from the goddess of the dawn, lust, fertility and spring, associated with the beginning of the year).

A variant *jutro appears in West Slavic, Slovenian and Serbo-Croatian, and is also attested in Old Church Slavonic, but considered secondary; there are further Slavic lexemes that display an alternation *ju- in West and South Slavic vs. *u- in East Slavic. Variants with *(j)ustr- point to *ustr- < *usr-, the loss of -s- being either due to dissimilation or perhaps due to the law of open syllables, if the -s- was variably assigned to the end of the first syllable. According to Kortlandt, the acute on the root implies a zero-grade variant (which would have parallels in Sanskrit, ), which, however, is not attested. The intrusive -t- is regular in Proto-Slavic, compare,.

no hay moros en la costa

Etymology
lit. 'there are no Moors at the coast'.

The phrase means that there are no Moors at the coast, which generally meant that there are no problems coming our way. In Cuba though,”Hay Moros en la costa” (There are Moors on the coast), is to alert someone that there are children present and adult conversations should not occur.

Phrase

 * 1) the coast is clear

Hi. Thanks for sorting out some Spanish past participles. I've noticed that hundreds have been fixed. However, there are still a few with incorrect format. One was arrastradas, which I've just fixed.

Thank you for your compliment, that does mean a lot to me as not everyone thinks the same way about my work on modules and templates here.

I didn't change how the template works on the outside, other than remove some alternative parameter names that were rarely used anyway, so what you learned should still be valid. But there was (and is) no way to give multiple inflections, so to support your request I'd have to add a feature. I think the easiest way, which would fit best with how other templates work, would be just to add,   and so on. That way you could specify that a word has multiple possible alternatives.

Descent
I think the tag German/de refers to New High German rather than German/Austrian/Swiss Standard High German. Thus, if Hunsrik is treated with a separate language tag, then DE is the proper parental language as Hunsriksch comes from a collection of post-medieval German dialects. Korn (talk) 09:28, 2 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Back in early 2015 your opinion may have been justified. But now we've divided the High German language area into a number of vernacular languages that get their own coverage (I think there are six of them). Hunsrik would be a descendant of (southern) 🇨🇬. I'm putting the descendant tag to Kriech. Kolmiel (talk) 13:40, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * PS: The example sentence at kriich uses the definite article "tas" (rather than "*dat" or "*tat"), which would make it 🇨🇬, but wikipedia says it's a Moselle Franconian dialect (and the poem given their indeed is). Maybe it's a mix of both. But let's treat it as Moselle Franconian for now based on the information given at wikipedia. Kolmiel (talk) 13:50, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * PPS: German Hunsrückisch seems to be two closely related dialects, one to be defined as Moselle Franconian (used by the woman on the wikipedia page) and one to be defined as Rhine Franconian (used by the man). The Brazilian version seems to be Rhine Franconian. But I'll leave it for now, since I don't know any details. Kolmiel (talk) 13:58, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure why you feel the need to tell me that something I said 1,5 years ago is now unjustified when you make an edit based on a policy change of whose discussion I was part of. But let me assure you that this is not necessary. Korn [kʰũːɘ̃n] (talk) 17:51, 13 July 2016 (UTC)

Evidence for purported PGmc reconstruction?
The article doesn't cite anything but west Germanic examples. The initial K shouldn't exist in PGmc, due to Grimm's law. Kampf was a late borrowing from Latin, which explains its initial K. 108.48.94.155 22:06, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Talk:坉

RFV discussion: November 2013–December 2014
Rfv-sense for 坉 definition "water that does not recede and cannot be diverted". Purportedly given in the Kangxi Dictionary (1716), the definition isn't in the Unihan database (which, in itself, isn't a problem) and almost seems to contradict one or more of the definitions given at zdic.net (Han Dian dictionary site). It'd be nice to have someone native or near-native in reading Chinese have a look at this definition to see if it's valid. Bumm13 (talk) 22:01, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm certainly not near-native in reading Chinese, but it looks like this definition is indeed in the Kangxi dictionary: "水不通不可别流" . Mr. Granger (talk) 23:23, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
 * The Kangxi dictionary cites the very old Yupian dictionary, which gives the same definition. Mr. Granger (talk) 23:48, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Okay, after working with several sources and translation tools, I finally was able to parse the "cannot be diverted" part (不可别流). The "that does not recede" definition seems a bit odd to me, as the literal translation that I'm getting for that part is "stopped" or "blocked" (不通, a compound word) rather than "recede". Bumm13 (talk) 01:29, 5 November 2013 (UTC)
 * That's true in modern Chinese, but in classical Chinese, words are generally monosyllabic, so my guess would be that it should be parsed as two words: 不=not, 通=pass through. (But again, I'm no expert - we need someone who can read classical Chinese.) Mr. Granger (talk) 02:43, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

 * It would be helpful if someone could provide an example of how this is used. Is a pond a "坉"? It has nowhere to recede or be diverted to, assuming it is rain-fed rather than fed by a river. If a river floods and the water doesn't seem likely to recede for several days, and the town has to be evacuated, are the floodwaters "坉" until they do recede? - -sche (discuss) 06:38, 29 July 2014 (UTC)

 * Thanks; I've typed it up here. Like the "English person" sense, it seems to pertain to the lowercase form rather than the uppercase form. (Who knows, maybe the "Southern US person" sense is also more common in lowercase, in which case my creation of it in uppercase should be reconsidered.) - -sche (discuss) 16:14, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

 * I've added three more citations. Two of them (1898, 2014) could possibly be adjectives, but I'm pretty sure that at least the 2014 cite is an attributive use of the noun. Given that none of them mention the Grampians specifically, maybe "A Scottish person from outside the Highlands, a Lowlander." would be a better definition.

A kitten's meow (as opposed to an adult cat's, perhaps?). Having trouble finding this in English. Equinox ◑ 15:13, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * The only mentions of this word I can find in English are:
 * In the OED: "The herb spignel, Meum athamanticum. Also: the root of this plant."
 * 1819 London Quarterly review: "[S]omewhat less than an English acre." From Mandarin or.
 * If it is used in the plural form meus, it is overwhelmed by the Latin.
 * I can find no evidence of this use in English. —JohnC5 (Talk 19:13, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Yes, perhaps the originator (from UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA) was thinking of mew? (It wasn't User:Wonderfool, was it?)  But then, why did Connel MacKenzie add an etymology?
 * I suggest that we just change the entry to the herb definition.   D b f  i  r  s   20:29, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I've added the herb definition and found we had two of the other vernacular names for Meum athamanticum already. I converted the to . I wonder how the herb name is pronounced. It must be derived from the genus name, perhaps with the terminal s interpreted as a plural ending. DCDuring TALK  21:21, 2 October 2014 (UTC)
 * I've added pronunciation and etymology according to the OED, Perseus, and other sources. The OED's proposal that meu passed through Middle French from Latin mēum from AG μῆον would account for the nasalization and loss of the final m and the reinterpretation of Latin /eːu/ > MF /œː/ > Eng /juː/.  This seems a plausible enough account for its pronunciation and spelling to me. —JohnC5 (Talk 22:28, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

 * Except for one work, apparently of fiction, translated (from French?), all of the use seems technical (biology). One can find more at Google Scholar, though most of the usage I found was in works in French an in bibliographies citing those works.
