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.

-mece

You requested more etymology for -mece. Is is not simply the combination of -me (forming a verbal noun) and -ce (in a missing fifth sense)? Vox Sciurorum (talk) 17:18, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Sure, looks like it. Didn't want to write that without any proof, tho. I thought {{R:tr:Nişanyan}} would've mentioned that. Then I wanted to leave it at the hands of sb else. Is it safe to say that it was inherited from Ottoman Turkish ـماجه? --Whitekiko (talk) 18:00, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

I found a reference for the etymology. Ottoman spelling appears to have been variable with ـمه‌جه being more common. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 20:02, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
