*snarkjaną

Because of Sievers' law, this would be *snarkijaną instead. But I wonder where the evidence is for the -j- suffix. None of the descendants seem to have any umlaut. —CodeCat 01:40, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

• Whoops, my bad. I got the root from a mid-19th century German-Gothic dictionary, as well as a dated Old English one, so I tried to adapt to what we now theorize PG to have been. It seems I forgot something...

Σιλᾶς

As I understand it, there's variation in how this name is accented in the Greek New Testament, and I have access to at least one edition that uses the form in question. More importantly, you don't seem to understand how Greek is done at Wiktionary: what we call Greek is really Modern Greek, and the modern orthography doesn't have circumflex accents- you may have noticed that the inflection table you borrowed from the Σίλας entry provides only the acute accent. Also, we generally make alternative-form entries rather than copying the whole entries in cases such as this: if anyone were to change one entry, then you would have entries for the same term disagreeing with each other. The pronunciation and inflection information are different, so I left those as they were. You should read WT:AEL and WT:AGRC before doing more (Ancient) Greek entries. I'll give you our standard welcome template, which has links to our rules, policies and quite a bt more useful information:

Welcome

Hello, welcome to Wiktionary, and thank you for your contributions so far.

If you are unfamiliar with wiki-editing, take a look at Help:How to edit a page. It is a concise list of technical guidelines to the wiki format we use here: how to, for example, make text boldfaced or create hyperlinks. Feel free to practice in the sandbox. If you would like a slower introduction we have a short tutorial.

These links may help you familiarize yourself with Wiktionary:

• Entry layout (EL) is a detailed policy on Wiktionary's page formatting; all entries must conform to it. The easiest way to start off is to copy the contents of an existing same-language entry, and then adapt it to fit the entry you are creating.
• Check out Language considerations to find out more about how to edit for a particular language.
• Our Criteria for Inclusion (CFI) defines exactly which words can be added to Wiktionary; the most important part is that Wiktionary only accepts words that have been in somewhat widespread use over the course of at least a year, and citations that demonstrate usage can be asked for when there is doubt.
• If you already have some experience with editing our sister project Wikipedia, then you may find our guide for Wikipedia users useful.
• If you have any questions, bring them to Wiktionary:Information desk or ask me on my talk page.
• Whenever commenting on any discussion page, please sign your posts with four tildes (~~~~) which automatically produces your username and timestamp.
• You are encouraged to add a BabelBox to your userpage to indicate your self-assessed knowledge of languages.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! Chuck Entz (talk) 03:07, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

Nomination moved.

I moved your deletion request to WT:RFDO, since WT:RFD only deals with actual entries. Do you mean Template:lad-num? bd2412 T 18:44, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

• Yes I do. Thank you JSBrowand13 (talk) 19:00, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
