Phrasebook entries should not exist in a language that is no longer used. Old Man Consequences (talk) 15:44, 11 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

I agree with that sentiment, but to play devil's advocate: what if the phrases in question attested with that meaning, for example? Isn't there a case to be made for inclusion then? (And should we have a vote about this, since if we were to delete this that would set a precedent for many more such entries in OE and other dead languages -- see Category:Phrases by language?) — Mnemosientje (t · c) 16:28, 11 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
This exact phrase is in fact attested in the Gospel of John, by the way. mellohi! (僕の乖離) 00:10, 13 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
