  • Page 339281 Wiktionary:Beer parlour/2007/July: Found match for regex: :::Re: "'''Pattern''' is not a part of speech or a function": I'm not sure I follow. Patterns serve many of the same roles in Semitic languages (and probably other Afro-Asiatic languages) that affixes do in English. (This is not to suggest that Semitic languages don't have affixes, just that they ''also'' have patterns.) The only reason I can think of to exclude patterns is that it's hard to figure out what article titles to use. (For those not familiar with Semitic languages: words are typically formed from "roots", which are a series of consonants that pertain to the meaning, and "patterns", which are a series of vowels, possibly plus a prefix and/or suffix, that pertain primarily to the grammar. For example, the root L-M-D pertains to learning or studying; use it with the pattern -o-é-et, and you get ''lomédet'' "am/is/are learning (fem. sing.)", but use it with the pattern -i-é-, and you get ''liméd'' "[he] taught".)   Re: using the "Verb" header with a "stative" tag: Yeah, that sounds reasonable.   Re: "Any new header ought to have a sufficient number of uses required before being seriously considered.": As long as there's a catch-all header, that's fine. I don't think it's necessary to give (say) circumfixes a "circumfix" header, but I ''do'' think it's necessary to include circumfixes and give them a header of some sort. —[[User:Ruakh|Ruakh]]<sub><small><i>[[User_talk:Ruakh|TALK]]</i></small></sub> 00:00, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

If a word comes from a word in another language, the language should be noted, generally best coded using {{temp|der}}. The same format should be used when noting Egyptian words in the etymologies of non-Egyptian entries. When an Egyptian word comes from [[Proto-Afro-Asiatic]], the reconstructed etymon should be linked to with <code>*</code> preceding, to indicate a reconstructed form. Cognates in sister languages are useful: Akkadian, Arabic, Aramaic, and Hebrew are the usual suspects. In general, when using other languages in an etymology, they should be written in the appropriate script and transliterated, according to the source language’s policies. If you only have access to a transliteration, put it unlinked, and add {{temp|rfscript}}, which marks the entry for attention from someone knowledgeable about the particular script. If you are uncertain of the meaning, spelling, or some other facet of the word, you can use {{temp|attention}} to mark the entry for attention from someone knowledgeable about the language.

I get the impression that the Altaic theories are more accepted in references for those languages- probably due to the lack of anything better for inherited terms in language isolates such as these. I'm not sure how easy it would be to even find all of the entries with these, let alone to convert them. Personally, I wouldn't mind reference in etymologies (with proper cautions/qualifiers) to a few of the more linguistically-rigorous minority theories, but we have to be selective. The sheer volume of mutually-contradicting speculative theories for isolates such as Basque and Sumerian, and (even some Indo-European and Afro-Asiatic languages) would make a horrible mess out of quite a few entries.

  • Page 5788713 Thread:User talk:Rua/Unexplained deletions: continuing what appears to be a common theme: Found match for regex: I fear that you are letting your personal range of experience and particular set of opinions get in the way of constructive discussion. The theory of Altaic for one is certainly not unilaterally accepted either, nor are the particulars of the phonetics of Proto-Sino-Tibetan or Proto-Afro-Asiatic, or even Old Chinese—hell, there is still much disagreement about PIE—but in the same sense that settling on a particular phonological model for the time being shouldn't prevent Wiktionary entries for these languages from existing, neither should disagreement about families like Altaic prevent there from being any inclusion of them, as is evident already. If the assumption is that there is something inherently wrong in describing such hypotheses, what is it that is wrong? This is not a matter of whether a scholarly interest exists (it most certainly does) nor a matter of whether there is consensus among any subset of scholars working on the areas in question (there is); instead, you are in danger of now turning it into an issue of neutrality. You did not provide any rationale for the deletions either in prior discussion or retroactively (and I can only guess that your expectation was that I come to you). Other than useless deletionism I do not see any grounds for it. It is not in the same ballpark as modifying or deleting PIE paradigms in favor of alternative models: in this case your choice has been to wipe the (only) information out of existence without hesitation. Regardless, I can only hope that future incidents of this form do not take this path.
  • Page 5789529 Thread:User talk:Rua/Unexplained deletions: continuing what appears to be a common theme/reply (2): Found match for regex: That may be so. Sadly very few people, relatively speaking, have any knowledge of or interest in comparative linguistics. But, assuming you are referring exclusively to comparative linguists, I would like to know what counts as “very few”. Not that I am contesting that there are few: I would simply like a genuine reference point on which to base the observation of how many of the ''whole'' agree with the methodology used and conclusions drawn, and which ''whole''. I don't expect that there have been many surveys on comparative linguists' opinions at large; however, as for the number of linguists who have worked on the areas in question, is it any less than for protolanguages such as those of Sino-Tibetan, Afro-Asiatic, Austronesian or “Altaic”? In each case the picture is overall the same: two, maybe three, large works which are regarded as the standard, separate and collaborative efforts among a handful of well-known names, and other small contributions by a larger number of lesser-known names. (Of course this description then also leads to the issue of defining “well known”: how much?, and, more importantly, by whom?) Whether the opinions of those who do not study these areas is just as relevant as the opinions of those who do is another question, though perhaps more relevant to the philosophy of ways of knowing. Both you and Rua are evidently very experienced, in the areas relevant to what you have studied, but there seems to be no objective manner in which to discern whose beliefs matter to what—other than the principle that Wikimedia administrators are granted the unquestioned last word!

In historical-era loanwords, Egyptian {{m|egy||ḏ}} is only found rendered by Semitic ''ṣ'' or ''z'', and rarely ''ḏ̣'' or ''ḏ''.

Because the work of reconstructing earlier Egyptian phonology only began to gather steam recently, in the second half of the 20th century, and because some aspects of it remain under debate, Egyptologists traditionally use a conventional ‘Egyptological pronunciation’ that is not intended to reflect any actual historical pronunciation for the sake of convenience.
