Wiktionary:Requested entries (Russian)
Have an entry request? Add it to the list – but please:
- Consider creating a citations page with your evidence that the word exists instead of simply listing it here
- Think twice before adding long lists of words as they may be ignored.
- If possible provide context, usage, field of relevance, etc.
- Check the Wiktionary:Criteria for inclusion if you are unsure if it belongs in the dictionary.
- If the entry already exists, but seems incomplete or incorrect, do not add it here; add a request template to the entry itself to ask someone to fix the problem, e.g.
{{rfp}}
or{{rfe}}
for pronunciation or etymology respectively.- — Note also that such requests, like the information requested, belong on the base form of a word, not on inflected forms.
Please remove entries from this list once they have been written (i.e. the link is “live”, shown in blue, and has a section for the correct language)
There are a few things you can do to help:
- Add glosses or brief definitions.
- Add the part of speech, preferably using a standardized template.
- If you know what a word means, consider creating the entry yourself instead of using this request page.
- Please indicate the gender(s) .
- If you see inflected forms (plurals, past tenses, superlatives, etc.) indicate the base form (singular, infinitive, absolute, etc.) of the requested term and the type of inflection used in the request.
- For words which are listed here only in their romanized form, please add the correct form in Cyrillic script.
- Don’t delete words just because you don’t know them – it may be that they are used only in certain contexts or are archaic or obsolete.
- Don’t simply replace words with what you believe is the correct form. The form here may be rare or regional. Instead add the standard form and comment that the requested form seems to be an error in your experience.

- Ай дон’т спик Инглиш (Aj don’t spik Ingliš) - Russian transliteration of I don't speak English
- Айон (Ajon) - Russian name of Ayon Island in Chukotka. Etymology from Wikipedia: "The name of the island is thought to come from one of two sources. Firstly, it is suggested that it comes from the Chukchi word "Ayo", meaning "brain", as the islands shape is somewhat like a brain. The second school of though is that it is derived from Chukchi meaning "coming alive", in reference to the fact that although the island is covered in ice and snow during the winter, in the summer, this melts and the island provides a good pasture for reindeer herds as well as being the home to swarms of midges and gadflies."

edit- рагу́ль (ragúlʹ) - slang, derogatory, offensive - "hillbilly", rural people from Western Ukraine; later used against pro-Maidan protestors. Saw it online but no entry exists here.
- Various etymologies are suggested for this term: рог (rog, “horn”) by comparing rural Ukrainians to bulls; or рога́тка (rogátka, “slingshot, also turnpike”) for barriers used to keep outsiders from cities before they were annexed into the Ukrainian SSR.

- россол (rossol) - see Finnish rosolli
- Not sure if it is needed, as the common standard is рассол (rassol) with the same pronunciation. Also, am not sure if the Finnish etymology is correct (may a Russian 'a' in this position become an 'o' in Finnish?). The term may be borrowed from north-western Russian border dialects, but am also not sure if they do really have the prefix рос-/роз- (like in Ukrainian розсіл (rozsil)). Otherwise, we must consider to include misspellings like роспечатать and росход etc. Tollef Salemann (talk) 07:25, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

edit- Тиме́й m (Timéj, “Timaeus”) — The Russian Wiktionary gives «Тимей» as the unglossed translation («◆ Отсутствует пример употребления (см. рекомендации).») of Latin Timaeus and Gothic 𐍄𐌴𐌹𐌼𐌰𐌹𐌿𐍃 (Teimaius), the latter almost certainly referring to the father of Bartimaeus in Mark 10:46 of the Bible. The Russian Wikipedia article w:ru:Тимей (Платон) shows the word used in reference to the Platonic dialogue. Animacy probably varies by sense, with the given name animate/personal and the dialogue inanimate. This probably means this word is variously declined, as Romanian Timeu is.
