User talk:AryamanA/2018

Hey, just a few comments on : 1. It's a confusing stem, but is the nom.sg. not **táwkman, 2. if you copy the descendents from the PIE entry, please use see desc on said entry, 3. I think the etymologies are much improved if you list the full etymology, when you can, instead of simply using alt to the root, and please also add PIE root when appropriate, 4. Parthian comes before Old Persian, as the "old" is ignored. If you have any thoughts to the contrary, please let me know. Thanks! --Victar (talk) 07:32, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that, in hindsight those are very obvious mistakes. Thank for fixing the entry. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 14:36, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, no worries. Just trying to make the PII entries even better. Thanks! --Victar (talk) 15:43, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Would that not be instead? The noun is masculine in Skt, Avestan and OP. The nom. sg forms are,  and  respectively. -- माधवपंडित (talk) 01:09, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I (and you) moved it, but I think that might be was a mistake now, which is why I slowed my roll. According to Mayrhofer, the Avestan is neut. and the OP a fem. derivative. Monier says the Sanskrit is masc., but the nom.sg. looks to be tokma, not tokmā. Also, if it was a masc. mā-stem, you would expect the accent to be the on suffix, not the root, as you see with neut. ma-stems. --Victar (talk) 02:03, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Then, again, Mayrhofer could be wrong. The Kurdish looks to be masc. Also, there might have been some confusion with the word for power. --Victar (talk) 02:22, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I see now. It had occurred to me that the ending should be but I ignored in favor of what I thought was apparent: all three major descendants are masculine and are declined with an ā. No idea why the masculine declension of  is  but it is. After we are sure about the OP and Avestan forms, it's your call. -- माधवपंडित (talk) 02:37, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Monier-Williams claims that the masc. is a derivative of an earlier neut. --Victar (talk) 06:16, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Something about linking Hindi to Persian that's been on my mind
Hello AryamanA, it occurs to me there is an issue with the way that Persian and Hindi and Urdu are linked at the moment. When a Hindi word is mentioned as being from Persian it is the Tehran or kind of standard modern Iranian pronunciation (terminology?) that the Romanisation reflects. Good examples aren't coming to mind right now, but as a recent example کتاب مقدس, the pronunciation was probably closer to 'kitab' than 'ketab', 'bach[ch]a' rather than 'bach[ch]e' etc. (as I'm absolutely positive you know). In the earlier days of editing, I supposed it was hoped that some editors speaking Dari Persian (especially native speakers), would appear and formulate their own Romanisation system, add entries and so on, but for some reason it has never happened. I wonder if an intermediate solution is to link to the words without a transliteration? There does need to be a system of showing two transliterations, one Iranian and one from Afghanistan and there are a handful of entries which are Afghanistan-only where I haven't put a transliteration as to put the Iranian one and have it there alone would be wrong. Anyway, it's just a point that I have been thinking about. Kaixinguo~enwiktionary (talk) 12:10, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Also, I thought I was online maybe a few weeks ago and someone (I thought it was you?) put an etymology section referring to a Tajiki entry as being 'from' Persian. I looked back through your entries but I couldn't find the edit (maybe it wasn't you?). Anyway, I would view that as incorrect. Thank you. Kaixinguo~enwiktionary (talk) 12:15, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Incidentally, that is why I think the use of the new synonyms template and change of location is not suitable for Persian. When, in the future, there willbe two transliterations for Persian entries, it will be very long to have synonyms under each line like that. I mean something like, بچه bačče Iran bačča Afghanistan. That would make more sense for the Hindi entries as well. Kaixinguo~enwiktionary (talk) 12:21, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Hindi and Urdu tended to borrow from Classical Persian (which is closer to Dari, you're right), so I have been trying to change hi/ur to hi/ur, but I don't have any good Classical Persian resources. Also, why not something like ? And something similar for headwords.
 * Yeah, that was probably me for Tajik, I may have misunderstood the relation between it and Persian. Tajik is descended from Classical Persian, though, is it not? —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 13:15, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Proto Indo Aryan lemmas
I can't tell what these recent entries are about. Excepting dʰr̥ẓḍʰás most of these (like ćʰoṭṭas) seem to be actually Proto Middle-Indo-Aryan or Proto Prakritic or something like that. Its not just because they lack a sanskrit word but rather the form and the shape is similar to the simplified and corrupted words that exist in Prakrits. You see, sanskrit words are rather complicated, reflecting earlier Indo-aryan and Indo-european words. Proto Indo Aryan is more archaic than even Sanskrit so it does not make much sense to haev words which are obviously corrupted later forms and label them as Proto Indo Aryan words. And why would you create bāppas when all dictionaries agree that Sanskrit वप्ता has given rise to these words? Regards
 * You are right, this has bothers me too. The problem is that we cannot trace back stuff like to the actual Proto-Indo-Aryan form. It could be *kṣotras, ṭṣotras, gẓʰotras, kṣoṣṭʰás, etc. and we don't know which one because we don't have the Sanskrit. Maybe we should add inc-pro to the entries, or make a separate code for "Proto-Middle Indo-Aryan"..
 * can't be the ancestor, that would yield Prakrit vappa or vappu, the would be lost.
 * Also, I've seen you before right? You should make an account man, you could really help out with the sorry state of Indo-Aryan languages here. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 02:06, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks, . Yes, I was around briefly in September and a bunch of times before that.
 * You see, I hesitated to join because I don't want an issue of sock puppetry or spam to be created since I and User:माधवपंडित share a residence for most days of a week (we're siblings). I mostly edit wikipedia as an IP and obviously he's into this more than I am, my interest is strictly dictionary, he's more for etymology, proto Indo european and stuff like that which is why he joined and I edited sporadically anonymously.
 * I think that "vaptā/vaptr" can fit because the descendants seem to fit: like you said the t was lost, and no modern language shows the t. Some other example I've compiled include:
 * Skt. argha -> Pkt. aggha -> Hi. āgh
 * Skt. abhra -> Pkt. abbha -> Hi. ābh
 * Skt. garbha -> Pkt. gabbha -> Hi. gābh.
 * Similary, Skt. vaptar -> Pkt. vappa -> Hi. bāp.
 * Let me know what you feel. Regards again.
 * Oh, I feel so stupid, I absolutely misinterpreted that. Yeah, is a perfect fit. It's strange that R:CDIAL and R:hi:McGregor don't mention it all though. The short a is kind of a problem, since we have 🇨🇬 instead of the expected  (Punjabi preserves consonant clusters). Still, I think it could work.
 * Thanks for making an account! Generally, if you tell that you are on a shared IP then there's no reason to fear blocking. Wiktionary is very lenient with sockpuppets anyways, as long as you don't use them maliciously. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 04:39, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I was definitely giving the stink-eye. --Victar (talk) 06:01, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * So is "Proto Middle Indo-Aryan" the way to go? It's better to not introduce false accuracy by reconstructing *kṣotras, as the Proto-Indo-Aryan may have been. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 06:45, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I would like it if we had a code for "Proto-Prakrit" (essentially the same as "Proto-Middle-Indo-Aryan") and put, , under it. Kind of how we have Proto-Sogdic, Proto Armenian etc. Although wiktionary may turn out to be the only place that has "Proto-Prakrit/Proto-Middle-Indo-Aryan", we can be more accurate and save Proto-Indo-Aryan for actual PIA words like ,  etc. -- माधवपंडित (talk) 08:15, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * "Proto-Prakrit" is a better name since "Proto-Middle-Indo-Aryan" is too long. Perhaps all the Turner and other DSAL reconstructions can be given entries under "Proto-Prakrit/Proto-Middle-Indo-Aryan". "Wiktionary turning out to be the only place that has "Proto-Prakrit" is a troublesome thought, but better for accuracy. So perhaps trees would have the hierarchy:
 * 🇨🇬 [Term?]
 * 🇨🇬 [Term?]
 * 🇨🇬 [Term?]
 * 🇨🇬 [Term?]
 * "Proto-Prakrit/Proto-Middle-Indo-Aryan" [Term?]
 * 🇨🇬s [Term?]
 * Kutchkutch (talk) 09:27, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * , can your reverse engineer to a PIA word? If so, I'd say just move that there and and have *ćʰoṭṭas be labeled a descendant. I don't mess with anything past PIA, but if Proto-Prakrit is attested in the literature, you can make a case to  on it for a code. --Victar (talk) 15:08, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Prakrit simplifies clusters too much, it's just not possible to project backwards to PIA. I made the code  myself, since it's non-controversial and we already have   for Prakrit. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 16:25, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * The point is that there are many PIA forms which this Proto-Prakrit term could have derived from and we definitely do not want to get speculative, especially with titles of pages in the reconstruction namespace. A Middle Indo-Aryan word need not necessarily have a PIA/Sanskrit/IIR etymon; innovations are found at every stage of language development. *ćʰoṭṭas may be such a word with no real PIA origin. -- माधवपंडित (talk) 16:15, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * , you should really run new codes by the Beer Parlour first, regardless of whether they're disputed or not. --Victar (talk) 16:34, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you're right. I've made a discussion and pinged some people. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 16:49, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the analysis,. There are two possible explanations for Punjabi, firstly, it may be from Hindi, or this may be a legit PIA lemma. Hindi Sabasagara (the one which you introduced me to several months ago at the discussion for भाथा) gives वप्तृ as the origin, but I now see that they have gotten etymologies wrong on other words so this may not be correct. CueIn (talk) 13:51, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * If we do move it to the Proto-Prakrit namespace then we can mention the possible Sanskrit Etymology there. Hindi Shabdsagar is generally okay, since it was actually written after Turner's CDIAL and so may rely on newer research. I wish we had better resources though, Turner's CDIAL is in need of an update.
 * Looking at Google Books, Proto-Prakrit has been an idea since the 1960s, and many scholarly papers at least mention it. We wouldn't be the first to document it. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 14:47, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Wow! Does this mean we're going to get another new language? I sure am eager. -- माधवपंडित (talk) 16:15, 29 January 2018 (UTC)

घंटा
Hello User:AryamanA, I noticed that you reverted my edit to घंटा. If you look at any classic dictionary of Hindi-Urdu/Hindustani, the original spelling of the word in Urdu is گھنٹا, which is widely used. The spelling you reverted to is a modern Arabisation of the original spelling. This article actually does a good job of explaining why the alternate spelling گھنٹہ exists. In light of this information, I am going to restore the proper version of the article. If you are able to do so, I would also recommend moving گھنٹہ to گھنٹا so that گھنٹا is listed as the primary entry/spelling and گھنٹہ is listed as the alternate spelling. I hope this helps. With regards, Anupam (talk) 15:39, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * گھنٹہ has >500,000 hits on Google while گھنٹا has only 20,000. I agree گھنٹا is more true to the etymology, but since we are a descriptive dictionary we document what's currently in use, not what's "correct". So I will not move the form, even though I agree گھنٹا is more "correct". Also, classical dictionaries like Platts and Fallon are hugely unreliable since they rely on outdated scholarship. I used to refer to them a lot before, but I've seen now that their etymologies are usually very wrong and the definitions are imprecise. Modern dictionaries like and  are much better. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 18:37, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * But we're not exactly a descriptive dictionary are we? That's why we keep the nuqta forms as the main lemma, even when nuqta-less forms are significantly more popular on the internet. DerekWinters (talk) 20:40, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your thoughtful reply User:AryamanA. What are your thoughts User:DerekWinters? I think that the original spelling گھنٹا should be the primary article title with the recentism گھنٹہ listed as an alternate spelling. I also agree that it is very important to keep the nuqta forms as the primary article title, despite the fact that many publications (though not all) carelessly omit them. With regards, Anupam (talk) 21:13, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * That's because it's not convenient to have add a nuqta using most input methods. There's also a problem with the chandrabindu; I just switched to Gboard for Android and it doesn't even have a button on the Devanagari keyboard for the chandrabindu. Whereas ا and ہ are both easy to type on Urdu keyboard.
 * The nuqta is also important because it reflects pronunciation. (I also think we should have vocalization for Urdu, but that's another topic)
 * Even if we restrict to news articles, there are 285 hits for گھنٹہ and only 4 (!!) for گھنٹا. This leads me to believe that this "recentism" has become firmly adopted into formal Standard Urdu. I will make a proper redirect page for گھنٹا though. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 22:14, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * However the same articles that have the nuqta (not necessarily thought of as such though) under ड and ढ omit it for Arabic/Persian terms as a choice. I'm fully in favor of having the nuqta for those lemmas, but I do think we're certainly not as descriptive as we like to seem. DerekWinters (talk) 23:43, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, you're right I guess, non-nuqta spellings are used way more often. One idea is to move the nuqta entries to non-nuqta forms and have a  in the headword template. That would be a lot of work though. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 23:59, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
 * I think it is better to be only partially descriptive, otherwise all misspellings and grammatical errors would have to be accepted. The nuqta spellings are better. DerekWinters (talk) 00:02, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * The nuqta forms should remain. Removing the nuqta often changes the word as a whole. For example, ख़ाना means place while खाना means food. I hope this helps. With regards, Anupam (talk) 02:08, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Our Chinese entries have the lemmas at the traditional spelling rather than the more common simplified one because it's much simpler to convert traditional to simplified than the other way around, which is the same idea as that behind choosing the nuqta spelling as lemma. A lemma is a theoretical construct used for convenience and to avoid problems with keeping separate entries in synch on a wiki. That's not the same as choosing a main vs. alternative form based on "correctness". As for misspellings: we do have entries for the common ones, and some that are sanctioned by usage are treated as the main form. Chuck Entz (talk) 05:23, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Kachchi (and Sindhi)
The majority of sources indicate that a Vrachada (व्राचड) Apabhransha is the ancestor to Sindhi (and thus Kutchi). But some sources seem to say that व्राचड is from Paishachi prakrit. I don't know if we can find any material in Vrachada, and I think there's nothing extant in Paishachi. What do you think? DerekWinters (talk) 00:16, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I think Paiśācī (and Avantī and Prācyā) probably deserves a code, but since we don't have any real corpus for it, I'm not sure if adding it as an ancestor of Sindhi is a good idea. Also Grierson says that Paiśācī existed parallel to Vrācaḍa, so the progression is unclear (but Grierson is also a very outdated resource).
 * About Vrācaḍa Apabhraṁśa, it definitely existed at some point so it deserves a code and should be marked as an ancestor of Sindhi et al. Probably  would be good.
 * On an unrelated note, I think the Eastern Hindi dialects actually arose from Ardhamāgadhī and not Māgadhī. The most obvious evidence is that Eastern Hindi lacks the merger of the sibilants to ś, it merges it to s like Ardhamagadhi. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 02:28, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * The ś may have also evolved into s after contact with Western languages, but that's only speculation, I have no time-frame to look at this from.
 * On an unrelated note, would it be fair, under चतुर्, for the cattāro prakrit forms to be descendants of the Ashokan prakrit term? DerekWinters (talk) 03:22, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Whoops, didn't look at your tag. DerekWinters (talk) 03:25, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I doubt it since Old Awadhi didn't have ś either (but Bihari might, IDK). We'll see later.
 * The given Ashokan form is undoubtedly a northwestern dialect form (it has tp, the other dialects would have tt), but yeah it should be okay. Let's see what others have to say on the BP discussion before making it official though. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 03:27, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * That's true, and we can also reconstruct the other dialects, especially from evidence of phonological processes determined from other words. DerekWinters (talk) 03:29, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, we should make dialect-tagging (like in Coptic) mandatory with Ashokan Prakrit, even if the lemma is cited somewhere other than its main entry. DerekWinters (talk) 03:39, 5 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree. I already added dialect tags to all my earlier entries and made the labels as well as MOD:inc-ash:Dialects for alter. Check out CAT:Regional Ashokan Prakrit. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 03:40, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

It can be "himmat, hemt, himt, hamt, hammit, humut, hamat", etc. There is no infrastructure for this to happen. As far as I am concerned, Urdu, Persian and Pashto will always require manual transliterations. Arabic is already automatically transliterated but only on fully vowelled forms and not in all cases but in about 95% of cases. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 11:32, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Hey, I didn't want to spam your talk page, but this Bundeli grammar is really cool. Bundeli also has a long history tho, so it may have the same problems as Old Braj and Old Awadhi vs. modern Braj and Awadhi.
 * That is quite cool, yeah we'll have to dig into the literature to see what we should do about it. DerekWinters (talk) 00:00, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

gẓʰ
Sorry for spamming, but, for the gẓʰ sound in Proto-IA, which I presume lasted into other dialects of Vedic before forming Prakrit झ, what do you think of using ग्ष़ (ग्ष़ापयति) to transcribe it? Obviously this conjunct never existed historically, but it's no different than using gẓʰ in it's Romanization. DerekWinters (talk) 15:37, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I think we would have to use ग्ष़्ह because it's aspirated (*gẓ is also a thing by itself). But yeah, I think it would make sense to have that. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 16:38, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

Locking threat
So, even though I created the entry, you're going to threaten to lock it because I'm using the declension template used in over 90% of Sanskrit entries, instead of the new, buggy one, which has yet to garnish unanimous community acceptance?

template:also and Devanagari
Hello. I've finally started learning the script (still a long way to go though), and I'm curious as to what the rules are for the template. links to and  (i.e. matras are ignored?), but not to  (i.e. anusvara and the न conjunct are treated as different?).

Besides, neither nor  link to. So I'm not sure was correct?

Another question: what do you think of ? Can you have a mixture of anusvara/bindu and conjunct in the same word, or do you have to be consistent ? --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 20:29, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * That's great to hear! I actually had to learn Devanagari on my own as well.
 * ⟨bindū⟩, ⟨bandī⟩ and  ⟨banda⟩ all have the same sequence  with different vowel matras  (V) added to it. also for Devanagar was added by bot a while ago (I think by User:Octahedron80).
 * On 🇨🇬 the alternative forms drop-down already links to the Devanagari form, which I think is sufficient. The also is kind of redundant. (But maybe and  would benefit from a link there)
 * The current standard I'm following for Hindi is the main entry having all anusvara with the conjunct entries as altforms. You don't have to be consistent (, have lots of Google hits), but I would say spelling like that is nonstandard. I don't think having entries for those spellings is necessary, and eventually Mediawiki should ideally redirect the standard forms. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 20:42, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Ahah yes, so I've heard! You did have the advantage of already knowing Hindi though :p. As for me, even producing the sounds is a challenge, so I don't really have anything tangible to which I can map the letters. (don't mistake me: I'm not saying that just because you knew Hindi, learning the script must have been "easy"!)
 * I see. But what's the logic behind only taking the consonantal skeleton into account? Is it because the matras are only seen as "modifier" letters?
 * As for, it's not the best example, precisely because there is a Pali term. But what about gram (or even grām) and 🇨🇬, where the resemblance is purely coincidental?
 * I'm still thinking too much in terms of transliteration, and am not considering the script in its own right yet. That's a real problem, since translit is not language-independent: 🇨🇬 vs. 🇨🇬. Still, I see two issues:
 * ignoring the vowel matras amounts to linking bindu, bandi and banda in the Latin script;
 * 🇨🇬–gram, 🇨🇬–grama are left unlinked, while we link gram to grām, and would link grama to grāma if it existed.
 * Perhaps is simply not appropriate when the scripts are too different? --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 21:38, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, about your last point (consistency): duly noted. Thanks for the answer! --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 21:42, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Ha, I still mess up spellings even today (like I just learned and  aren't the same word!) And my Devanagari handwriting looks like computer font...
 * The matras aren't really modifier letters in my mind (after all, it's not a abjad like Arabic), but I guess someone trying to find something in Devanagari could miss (or mistype) them?
 * I think maybe having IAST translit redirects only for Sanskrit (because a lot of uni courses don't teach Devanagari from the get go, and most literature uses IAST) might not be a bad idea, but I think the Mediawiki software ought to redirect automatically. Mediawiki (at least with the extensions that Wikimedia uses) already has input methods in Devanagari, so I don't think autoredirection would be too difficult. But that can't be done from our end. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 22:54, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Hello. Sorry for not replying earlier, I'm forgetting every thread I'm in :p
 * To be clear, I won't particularly push for the creation of IAST redirections anymore, as there are very efficient tools outside of Wiktionary. I just think it could be added value to have it here. But it might be more overhead than it's worth so I don't know.
 * I've got another question: given the schwa-dropping in Hindi, misspellings must be quite frequent, no? What would prevent me from writing as, or  as ? Or even hypercorrect forms such as  instead of  (well, this is a ludicrous example but you get my point!)? --Per utramque cavernam (talk) 15:04, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Well, misspellings reflecting schwa-dropping tend to be pretty rare, for reasons I'm not entirely sure about. The first two examples you gave are clearly analyzable as +  etc. which might be one of the reasons why. Beyond that, schwa-dropping isn't done in a lot of poetry, but I doubt that explains the whole thing. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 15:56, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Bhojpuri
Linguistic Survey of India: 1 on page 48 says that ꣱ is used in Bhojpuri to indicate the long schwa (which he transcribes as â). What do you think? DerekWinters (talk) 20:04, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Also, page 50: "In Standard Bhojpuri, adjectives do not change for gender." But their verbs do conjugate for gender. DerekWinters (talk) 20:10, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I think the modern style is just ऽ, without superscript. E.g. see the hits for कऽ on Bhojpuri Wikipedia. I've fixed MOD:bho-translit, since now we are sure it represents [əː].
 * As for gender in adjectives and verbs, Masica says:
 * "Although Awadhi (and Western Bhojpuri, e.g., of Banaras) often show gender agreement similar to that of (Western) Hindi, in the southern extensions of Eastern Hindi, namely Bagheli and Chhattisgarhi, this is greatly attenuated, in the latter almost to the point of disappearance - completely so from the verb. The influence of Standard Hindi as the official language of this region is now a factor confusing the situation, and it may often be a question of the revival or even of the introduction of gender agreement rather than of its preservation."
 * So it may vary from dialect to dialect. I think most varieties of Bhojpuri do inflect adjectives for gender, but not for verbs (so the opposite of what Grierson says) —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 20:17, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Standard Assamese
Hi, I'm usure how should I differentiate Standard Assamese from the dialects. There are two types of Standard Assamese, 1) Based on Eastern Assamese, 2) Based on Central and Eastern Assamese. In Eastern Standard Assamese if a word has two /a/ sounds side-by-side, the first /a/ turns into an /ɔ/ or /ɛ/, this shifting is more common in Eastern Standard Assamese than Central Standard Assamese. For example: Central Standard:, Eastern Standard: ,. So I'm thinking to use "Central Assam" for "Central Standard Assamese" and "Central Assamese" for "Central Assamese dialects". Same for Eastern. Some features of Central Assamese dialects are: In some dialects the "r" sound is absent and in many dialects the 3rd person suffix is /i/ instead of /ɛ/ and the 1st person suffix is /ɔŋ/ or /ʊŋ/ instead of /ʊ̃/. So Central Standard Assamese is clearly more closer to Eastern Standard Assamese. As a Central Standard Assamese (CSA) speaker, I have more idea about CSA and Central Assamese dialects than Eastern Assamese dialects. Msasag (talk) 16:51, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
 * I think "Central Standard", "Eastern Standard", "Central", and "Eastern" are good dialect names. "Central Assamese" vs. "Central Assam" sound very similar, and it could confuse people. Great work on Assamese by the way. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 17:04, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Urdu
Hey! Do you think we could have Urdu lemmas come with the full vowel diacritics in the headspace (like for Arabic entries)? I've looked at some stuff but I can't find the proper method for diacritics for Urdu, but then with that we could get an automatic transliteration module as well. DerekWinters (talk) 02:49, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi! I'm familiar enough with Urdu vowel diacritics so I started making MOD:ur-translit a while back. I think automatic transliteration is definitely feasible. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 15:02, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

Hey! I have been referred to you by Hammad Saeed Bukhari. We are facing a problem with Special:Statistics on urdu wiktionary. Though 20,000 pages have been created by bot on urdu wiktionary, none is counted in 'toatal number of pages', though it should be above 25,000.

भैया
I provided a reference for the meanings of भैया from a dictionary, and yet you unnecessarily reverted it without providing any references of your own. --Foreverknowledge (talk) 21:36, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I am a native speaker and your definition was inaccurate (at least the meaning "friend" is not specific enough). But since you insist, I added three references. Dasa Hindi dictionary says "बराबरवालों या छोटों के लिये संबोधन शब्द", "a word used for one's equals or subordinates". —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 21:40, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * I too am a native speaker, and when one says phrases such as अरे भैया, it's not brother in a literal sense, but in a vocative with the meaning "friend" as the dictionary stated. --Foreverknowledge (talk) 21:42, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * (You should indicate which language you know with a Babel on you user page; I was unsure if you were a native) But you can also use भैया when talking to a waiter at a restaurant for example, or when haggling with a shop-owner. In those cases, it doesn't mean "friend". —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 21:44, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

अज़दहा
Why did you remove the reference for अजदहा (with a j)? It is an alternative spelling and pronunciation as attested in Platts and McGregor, and which I've also personally heard myself. And you've erroneously linked a reference to McGregor for अज़दहा (with a z), when he spells it अजदहा (with a j) instead.--Foreverknowledge (talk) 21:56, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * The nuqta (for marking z) did not exist in Platt's time, it was invented later on by the Nagari Pracharini Sabha. He gives the Urdu spelling too btw. But I thought I saw z in McGregor, so my mistake. Personally, I've only heard the z pronunciation, and the spelling अज़दहा is more common on Google. For words with nuqta variants we only make the form with nuqta because the non-nuqta form (like )अजदहा automatically redirects to the nuqta form (अज़दहा) thanks to Mediawiki software. That's why I think linking to अजदहा is unnecessary. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 22:15, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Point noted. Here is the link to McGregor, who spells it with j: http://dsalsrv02.uchicago.edu/cgi-bin/philologic/getobject.pl?c.0:514.mcgregor
 * By the way, the nuqta wasn't invented by the Nagari Pracharini Sabha. It's been used for centuries. Gilchrist indicated in his Hindustani Dictionary of 1787 that nuqta is occasionally used in Nagari spellings for loanwords, Rupert Snell also indicated that it's occasionally used in Classical Braj Bhasha. Platts also used the nuqta for a few of the Persian/Arabic words that he has in Nagari script. It's never been commonly used though. --Foreverknowledge (talk) 22:29, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh, I thought they invented it, because I remember reading an old essay from the 1800s criticizing its use by the Nagari Pracharini Sabha. Maybe they were only responsible for standardizing it then. Thanks for the knowledge. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 22:32, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

Sauraseni Prakrit
I have noticed that you are the one who added the entries for the Sauraseni Prakrit, I am wondering if you could tell me what source do you use for Sauraseni Prakrit? I am writing a paper on Romani language, and I need some references for Sauraseni. Thank you in advance. 109.245.191.198 01:19, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi! There is no definitive grammar or dictionary for Sauraseni Prakrit unfortunately. However, Woolner's Introduction to Prakrit has a short wordlist at the back for all the Dramatic Prakrits. Sauraseni specific words are marked with Ś, and if an entry has no dialect marks (only a definition) that means it was the same in all of those Prakrits. If you know what word you're looking for you can search through Pischel's Comparative Grammar Of The Prakrit Languages, it has a lot of word forms but rarely has definitions, and there is no index or word list at the back. The text is very dense as well. Hope this helps, good luck on your paper. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 23:29, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply, I have searched through the literature you recommended, however I still wasn't able to find all the specific words I was looking for :(. I just want to write how certain words were in Sauraseni, for example "head" ("šoro/šero" in Romani - Sanskrit: "śiras") - here on Wiktionary, it says that it was 𑀲𑀺𑀭 (sira) in Sauraseni - but where is the reference for that? I found almost every single word I was looking for in Wiktionary, however, I cannot state Wiktionary as my source in the paper. I was able to find all the words in Turner's comparative dictionary of the Indo-Aryan languages as well, which also states "Pk." - but not Sauraseni specifically. So, for example, for verbs, let's say the verb "kerel" (to do) - "karoti" in Sanskrit, Turner says: "Pk. karēi, karaï". I know that Sauraseni verbs ended with -di. Wiktionary states "karedi". So my question is, where can I find references for Sauraseni, more specifically Sauraseni verbs? Should I just use Turner and replace "-ï" with "-di", and add an asterisk before the word? Where did you get the Sauraseni verbs which you added on Wiktionary, from? Did you do something similar to this? 178.221.204.163 14:03, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Turner only gives Maharastri Prakrit forms unfortunately, but often the Sauraseni form is the same. In this case, the sound changes that operate in Sauraseni must produce sira too. Besides, Turner is the go-to reference for Indo-Aryan etymology, so I think you should be fine citing him. Even McGregor's Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary gives Maharastri Prakrit forms despite Sauraseni being Hindi's actual ancestor.
 * I got the entries I created while I was reading Woolner, and from research papers I read here and there (that's why I haven't made many Prakrit entries, the sources are quite scattered). In some cases I looked at original texts to find a particular form, but that is a very tedious process. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 02:21, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much again! It's been very helpful. In the end, I'll just use Turner, Woolner, Pischel, and Cowell, and search in them for all the stuff I need. As for infinitive verb forms, I'll do what I said, cause I think I know enough about its sound changes so I can reconstruct them, knowing how they were in other Prakrits. And if I've reconstructed a verb form, and not found it anywhere in this literature, I'll just add an asterisk before it. Anyways, thank you very much, again! :D 178.221.204.163 13:23, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
 * No problem! —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 18:24, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

"error" at انگریزۍ
I really do think your rollbacks are in error. Actually, you might be reinstating an error. I don't think there's a way that "اَنٛگریٖزۍ" can be read as "angrēzi"; those are two different words. Mar 1Q h 17:40, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Medial ye can be read as e in Nastaliq (in fact it's the only way to write medial e), which is the variety of the Perso-Arabic script that Kashmiri uses. Also, you're adding information without a source; I don't believe that *zy* is ever a cluster in Kashmiri Devanagari and would like to see proof of that Devanagari form. I will undo my rollbacks if you have the proof. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 17:51, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
 * It occured to me that you had created that entry and a few others -- Excuse me, but I really wasn't prepared for this.
 * I could contribute "unsourced content" here to other language sections with little response - at Wikipedia, as a registered user, it was my first or second edit that got undone.
 * I think I understood that you were, too, asking me for sources, but then there are a lot of articles here that have no references at all, so I wasn't sure what's enough and what's too much in an entry. I was going to lay all the sources that I know out on the "About Kashmiri" page, including the Devanagari orthography. Grierson is a good start for Devanagri. He uses ligatures with /y/ for palatalized consonants, if not in that particular word. But I did find a few instances of अंग्रीज़्य् elsewhere. I'm not aware of any other ways to write these "clusters" in Devanagari.
 * Kashmiri writing is difficult, but as I understand it, <یٖ>, with the diacritic (!) means /i:/ and without it, /e:/. Anyway, Grierson has angrīzi, and my main issue is with <ۍ> which is strictly a Pashto letter. -- Mar 1Q h 19:50, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
 * p.s. I had restored my version before so now it's the current one. I will insert another source and leave it at that -- since I've learned we have a native Kashmiri speaker here who's working on inflection tables, I'm probably out with (modern) lexicon and grammar -- but there remain typographical and encoding problems to be resolved. --Mar 1Q h 20:22, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Why did you remove the additional definitions? They are attested in dictionaries, with Chaturvedi even providing an example. It makes the entry more comprehensive and complete. --Foreverknowledge (talk) 02:36, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * All those words are redundant, they mean the same thing as "zero". It adds unnecessary clutter imo. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 14:52, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree that zero, cipher and nought are all exactly the same thing. It wouldn't hurt, though, to add the rest to the existing definition line to show the semantic range better: zero is a number, but blank and nonentity aren't. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:54, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * It seems my other Hindi-English dictionaries do have a noun sense "cipher" with masculine gender, even though my Hindi-Hindi dictionary just defined it as . I'll think about adding the defs back. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 02:57, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Cipher and nought are just old synonyms for zero in many of the same senses. Cipher can also mean a code, but that would be a bit of a stretch, given the overall range of the other words. Chuck Entz (talk) 03:02, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Your reversion of my edits
I don't know why you insist on publishing false etymologies of Persian words, you reverted my all edits but you don't reply my questions in their talk pages, for example here: Talk:%D8%AE%D9%88%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%86, I asked about Middle Persian xwāst "quest", is it from Proto-Indo-European *sweh₂d "sweet"? Modern Persian درخواست means "request" or "resweet"?!! You even removed the meaning of "whether, which (of two)" from xwāh ([]), just look at a dictionary to know what this word means: https://dictionary.abadis.ir/fatoen/%D8%AE%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%87/ do you want to deny it relates to French que, ...?

Portuguese: Iremos, quer chova, quer não > Persian: باید برویم، خواه باران بیاید خواه نیاید
 * They're horribly flawed etymologies. Any Persian specialist (and non-specialist) can show you that these etymologies are false. Do some proper, lengthy research on Persian before coming back. And don't waste Aryaman's (or anyone's) time with these. DerekWinters (talk) 05:23, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I also say that these etymologies are false, I'm myself an Iranist, the supervisor of my thesis was Professor Jaleh_Amouzgar, the greatest Iranist in the world. Mojshahmiri (talk) 06:14, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I mass reverted you because in almost all of your edits you were saying Persian words were derived from Proto-Germanic, which is preposterous. I did not pay any regard to the other non-etymological parts of your edits. You can add them back if you would like. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 12:55, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
 * If you had looked, you might have noticed other problems. At خواه, the "whether, which (of two)" definition was added under the verb header. The larger problem is poor English skills, which makes it hard to spot obvious problems like that, or the fact that the templates copied from other etymologies were categorizing the entry as if it were the language the templates were borrowed from: Category:Proto-Germanic terms derived from Proto-Indo-European. They also need to learn to use the "Show preview" button instead of using "Publish changes" before they're finished so they don't clutter the edit history with a dozen edits and still have everything in a shoddy, half-finished state. Chuck Entz (talk) 13:48, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Why is it preposterous? Who has said Persian words couldn't be from proto-Germanic? Why proto-Germanic words could be from Old Persian, like *paþaz "path" from Old Persian pathi, certainly not from Scythian (One of principal sound changes from Proto-Iranian to Scythian is *p>f, cognate of Old Persian pathi in Ossetian, a direct descendant of Scythian language, is fændag), but there shouldn't be any Old Persian word from proto-Germanic? Jacob Grimm, the discoverer of Grimm's law (the First Germanic Sound Shift), says that "If only six or eight of my interpretations be correct, and the remainder more or less probable, there needs no further proof that ancient Getae were a Germanic people". You certainly know that Getae was one of the main parts of ancient Persian empire, where the famous Gherla inscription of Darius the Great was discovered. Mojshahmiri (talk) 04:07, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Whether there could be borrowing between Proto-Germanic and Old Persian is beside the point. The language code for Old Persian is peo, and the language code for Middle Persian is pal. You used the language code fa, which is New/Modern Persian. There are texts in several Germanic languages descended from Proto-Germanic that are older than New Persian, so Proto-Germanic was long gone and forgotten centuries before New Persian emerged. And you didn't say it was derived from Proto-Germanic, you said it was borrowed, which can only mean that speakers of New Persian got it directly from Proto-Germanic. Whatever your qualifications and expertise in your native language, in English your edits are full of errors because you don't really understand what you're writing. Chuck Entz (talk) 08:15, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * What you said is completely a different issue, I'm a new member and didn't know these things, I would certainly appreciate if you informed me of them in my talk page. I just changed خو, is it ok?
 * I also edited hood and خود, the Indo-European sound changes clearly show that Proto-Germanic *hōdaz is from proto-IE *kadʰ-, not from Scythian but they were Scythians who borrowed this word.
 * No, it is not okay. You wrote  where the correct formatting would be , again categorizing entries wrong, again using  where it does not belong, again using  that should never be used. Also you could have added the Behistun inscription in the original script if you pretend to be able to read it. This is even without talking about the factual accuracy of your edits. But probably it is likewise shoddy, for who does not have the understanding to use correct markup does not have the judgment to view the facts soundly. Fay Freak (talk) 11:15, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your hits, so it should be "Persian derived Proto-Germanic"? I also added the Old Persian text in the original script. Mojshahmiri (talk) 12:26, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * It’s that simple: If what you add is under “Persian”, the language code you write as the first parameter after, , , , and such templates is fa, because you write it in the etymology section of a Persian entry. If you write the etymology section for a Latin entry, the code is la. If you create an Old Persian entry, what you might want to do, you write  and so on. The function of the first positional parameter is to categorize. You just look into the documentations of the templates  (click!) to see what all parameters mean. Of course you also need to understand when to use which templates.  is the general template for foreign as well as native derivations, the fallback template (you know what that means?),  is for direct loans from other languages.  is used when a word has passed from an older stage of the same language without anything additional having happened.  is never used anymore. Fay Freak (talk) 13:24, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * In the end, the real issue is that Mojshahmiri has unsourced self-fabricated theories that are unwelcome here, and in the end, however he formats them makes no difference because they will be reverted anyhow. --Victar (talk) 15:45, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I agree with Victar. My problem is not just that you use bor (which isn't even an issue compared to the other flaw in your etymologies), it's that that there seems to be no scholarly consensus that or, or any of the other entries you have added etymologies to, are borrowed from Germanic. I don't recall any historical circumstances in which every Old Iranian language would borrow a term from Proto-Germanic (which is what your etymologies say). It seems to me you are pushing your own pet theory. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 15:51, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

On Wiktionary we have a little leeway with original research provided an editor has shown their competence over a long period of time (which you haven't) and other editors find the theory reasonable (which no one does). —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 18:45, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Wiktionary page: ਭਰਾ (brother)
Hi Aryaman, I came across the Wiktionary page for the Punjabi word ਭਰਾ, and there are several errors with the declension. I'm not too familiar with how to use Wiktionary, the editing mechanism appears to be different than for Wikipedia articles and seems to be done by bots/algorithm or smth. I was wondering if you could fix it:

direct singular: ਭਰਾ (prā̀) direct plural: ਭਰਾਵਾਂ (prā̀vā̃) oblique singular: ਭਰਾ (prā̀) oblique plural: ਭਰਾਵਾਂ (prā̀vā̃) vocative singular: ਭਰਾਵਾ (prā̀vā) vocative plural: ਭਰਾਵੋ (prā̀vo)

Also, marking bhau as dialectal would serve to differentiate it with ਭਰਾ, which is the standard/more common word. Just a suggestion, thanks. Sapedder (talk) 05:09, 9 February 2019 (UTC)

सूनू
Hi, are you certain about the etymology of Hindi, which you have stated as coming from ? I am sceptical of this. It is highly likely that this formal Hindi word is instead a learned borrowing from (entry not yet created), which is but the feminine of. And, as far as I know, सूनु has two feminine forms, the homonym सूनु (which is mentioned here), and सूनू. So you may make the needful changes, if need be.

Divehi language
Hi. Divehi is known to have descended from Helu Prakrit, but in Wiktionary its early form is taken to be Maharashtri Prakrit. So, what do you think hereof? Thanks! —Lbdñk (talk) 20:52, 11 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Definitely think we should list it as a descendant of Helu, since Sinhala is listed like that as well. I will go ahead and change it. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 21:33, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Overriding Skt. adjective templates?

Edit Filter Fail
Sorry about the edit filter. I accidentally put the negation operator in the wrong place and disallowed everything. I fixed it immediately, but there were half a dozen edits that got hit- including some of yours. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:55, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
 * No harm done! By any chance are you on the Discord? Just moments ago I asked about the filter there. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 02:58, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
 * No. I just figured that I needed to let those affected know immediately so they would know it was safe to repeat the disallowed edits. Chuck Entz (talk) 03:06, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

Urdu transliteration
Hi, I think that a Hindustani word should have the selfsame transliteration in both Devanagari and Perso-Arabic, but here in many entries I have seen the Urdu transliterations bearing a more Persianized form, eg. has be transliterated as "za'farān", when it should have been "zāfrān" as in Hindi. Or is it that the transliteration follows Classical Persian in literary Urdu, but actual Hindustani in colloquial Urdu? —Lbdñk (talk) 18:08, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I think we should make the transliteration as close to pronunciation as we can, for Urdu. I really doubt that if any Urdu speaker were to say the word, the a' in "za'farān" would come out with a schwa followed by a glottal stop, and not actually "ā". So yes, "zāfrān" is to be preferred in this situation, and the actual pronunciation is prioritized. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 20:36, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Perhaps the silent ع should be marked somehow. @AryamanA, are you sure about the pronunciation? On the other hand, we don't transliterate different letters with identical pronunciation with different letters, like in Persian. ع is usually marked with ', not sure if it's ever completely silent in Persian. In any case, some slight deviations from Hindi transliterations should be welcome as educational, since this will highlight differences in spellings. --Anatoli T.

Transliterating Classical Persian
Hi! I see that I have transliterated Classical Persian words amiss. I had been following the transliteration used by, and it seems dated. Would you apprise me of Wiktionary's standard, and if not applicable, the standard that you deem right, by way of a list, or the like? Thanks. —Lbdñk (talk) 12:47, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I use the system employed by Steingass's dictionary, which I believe is the exact same as the Wiktionary system. Of course, I have no deep knowledge of Persian (let alone Classical Persian) myself. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 20:09, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I have seen that dictionary makes no mentioning of Classical or Early Modern Persian, it says only "Persian". Furthermore, Wiktionary provides transliteration only for Modern Iranian Persian, and not Classical Persian. —Lbdñk (talk) 20:21, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * From my knowledge of Persian, it is definitely not representative of Iranian Persian. Beyond that, I can't really say... —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 20:26, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary’s system, propagated by some people who know the language from living in Iran and codified by them in WT:FA TR, is exactly the opposite of the Steingass one. The Classical Persian transcription makes more sense for virtual all loanwords descended from Persian – e.g. 🇨🇬, is regularly from Classical Persian fišang and not fešang as it is transcribed now – and it also represents the current Persian as used in Afghanistan, succeding the Mughal Empire pronunciation. It’s just that Afghanistan people aren’t likely met on the internet, hence the Iranians have transcribed as it has been laid into their mouths.
 * An additional peculiarity is that only Persian transcriptions here use the circumflex diacritic for the long vowel while all other languages use the macron, to titillate Iranians with a keyboard who apparently write circumflexes more easily, as they also write ASCII apostrophes instead of U+02BB MODIFIER LETTER TURNED COMMA and U+02BC MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE that correctly behave like letters on the computer.
 * A few times, I have given both transcriptions to reconcile all, like on, which gave because the Persian was turunj and not “toronj”, hence Classical Persian transcription in its etymology section, and both at the Persian so there is no confusion from that it is turunj above and suddenly toronj. Fay Freak (talk) 21:06, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I wholly agree with you. The influence that the Persian language has left on the Turkic languages, the languages of Caucasia, and the Indo-Aryan languages was all through Classical / Early Modern Persian; so it is high time we had a Transliteration page dedicated to Classical Persian, following Steingass's standard. —Lbdñk (talk) 17:19, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
 * , by the way, why has Steingass translitered as "ḵẖabīs̤" ? Seems as though we are dealing with an aspirated consonant... Should the transliteration not be "xabīs" or "ḵabīs", as the word begins with an unvoiced velar fricative ? Also, what is that doubly underdotted s ? I am bewilder'd ! —Lbdñk (talk) 18:10, 19 September 2019 (UTC)
 * It is xabīs by our system. Steingass disambiguates the letters specific to Arabic borrowings (in this case, ) from their Persian phonological equivalents. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 14:30, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Well. Also, how should /t͡ʃ/ be transliterated... by "ch" or "č" ? Whatever, by the way, be the transliteration, the "c" used to transliterate the same sound in South Asian languages, is sadly not used for (Classical) Persian. And as for the vowels and vowel lengths, I think, Steingass can be safely followed, can it be not? Lastly, I have been wondering, what exactly you do mean by "our system"— I guess this must an unofficial, unwritten one. —Lbdñk (talk) 15:37, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * č. The vowel lengths are reliable. To be honest, I learned "our system" by trial and error (and frequent correction by User:ZxxZxxZ) and I too would prefer it to be documented somewhere. —AryamanA (मुझसे बात करें • योगदान) 15:41, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Why sadly? What’s so good about it? Most likely one would assume a ⟨c⟩ to be a, which is standard for Slavic and Chinese – and  for /t͡sʰ/ as opposed to ⟨z⟩ /t͡s – so your “South Asian” picture does not reach that far, and while the Malay alphabet uses ⟨c⟩ for /t͡ʃ/ the Cushitic Latin alphabets have it for the  (→ ; a better option for Semitic languages instead of the cripple ʿ). Using ⟨c⟩ for /t͡ʃ/ is confusing at the intersections, as for example ⟨c⟩ is used for Middle Persian while ⟨č⟩ for the same sound in New Persian, and this goes on in any list where many unrelated languages are mentioned, one and the same sign varying in meaning, various signs for the same meaning. This can be okay in the actual spellings of Latin scripts of languages themselves but has it to be in transcriptions? As there is an International Phonetic Alphabet one might have an international transcription standard somewhen, as transcriptions miss in effectivity if one has to go to a list to translate them into IPA; cruft carried on from the age of mechanical typesetting.
 * I do not assume or have hope in universalism of the Latin alphabet however: The Latin alphabet has too many restrictions from its initial shape and historical baggages to create unity in the world, so its usage for depicting all the languages is always problematic in one extent or the other. I can only warn of further spreading the Latin alphabet in the world. Perhaps this is a reason I can use to abstain from further impleting this dictionary: English and its alphabet are a meme. Fay Freak (talk) 19:52, 20 September 2019 (UTC)
 * By “our system”, it is xabis, as the classical i is e here, so somehow one decided to avoid marking the length of the i. Fay Freak (talk) 19:52, 20 September 2019 (UTC)

आपका नाम क्या है
We've been having lots of problems over the past few years with new mobile users (possibly children) in countries such as India who don't understand that the Wiktionary app on their phone isn't some kind of interface for editing their phone's internal settings or for communicating with the internet. आपका नाम क्या है is a good example of this: people keep interpreting the Hindi text on this page as an invitation to enter their names. We've had 20 IP edits in slightly more than a year consisting of someone from India typing their name into the entry (I've hidden the edits to protect their identities). Can you think of any way to clue these people in without compromising the entry? Two ideas I've been toying with are putting a message inside an HTML comment in the wikitext: <!-- message here -->, or creating an abuse filter that responds to edits of certain entries that meet certain tests coming from certain IP ranges with a warning of some sort in Hindi. The alternative would be restricting the entry to auto-confirmed users only, which would block all edits by IPs.

This sort of thing isn't unique to India- there are lots of similar edits from other countries with non-Latin-script languages such as Pakistan, Thailand and Iraq- but this is a case where we know what language to use. Chuck Entz (talk) 02:58, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
