Oddities needing fixing edit
I previously mentioned I wrote a code to analyse wiktionary and once in a while an entry which is utter codswallop appears. If anyone cares to check them please go ahead: here are some.
Note: some of these may have been fixed since the caching of wiktionary.
The various entries have tags (noun, proper noun, verb, etc) but some are used one or twice.
The inconsistency arises in the sentence entries:
Row Labels | Count of id |
---|---|
idiom | 1 |
n phrase | 3 |
phrase | 619 |
phrase n | 2 |
phrase num | 1 |
phrase pronoun | 1 |
proverb | 342 |
v phrase | 1 |
v proverb | 1 |
Grand Total | 971 |
The odd ones out being:
link | id |
---|---|
excuse me | phrase n |
fare thee well | phrase n |
hand out | v phrase |
the jury is still out | idiom |
one thousand | phrase num |
silver plate | n phrase |
story of one's life | n phrase |
strike while the iron is hot | v proverb |
what's new | n phrase |
yours truly | phrase pronoun |
Additionally, while 1265 words are classed as interjections, a category which includes onomatopeas etc, two are not. And a contraction is not labelled as such.
link | id |
---|---|
-bloody- | infix |
-fucking- | infix |
non obst. | postposition |
On the flipside there is a whole array of phrases classed as nouns and verbs, which may be in the wrong place. As the list is so long I made a special page for it here.
Triple lettter are ok in English only with s and l (or acronyms, numerals etc) meaning these may be wrong:
name | id |
---|---|
Amerikkkan | proper |
riot grrrl | n |
Amerikkka | proper |
unlesss | abbr |
illlit | adj |
verrry | adv |
sooo | adv |
zzzs | n |
