Talk:Prothesis (linguistics)

message: "Ngarka" (not ngyarka) is a language norm for Tundra Nenetses. For example, see the external link (in Nenets language)  with detailed description of Tundra Nenets language. There are quite a few common words that start with "ng". "Arka" is described as a dialectal variation, in which the initial "ng" is omitted, i.e., the opposite effect.  Mukadderat 16:48, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The basic syllable structure implies that word-forms do not begin with a vowel. However, many dialects seem to contain words with an initial vowel, though usually very few of them. For instance, шmke ‘what’ is widely used instead of ngшmke. By contrast, the Western dialects, because of the loss of the initial *ng, possess a large amount of initial vowels, and thus an initial syllable structure V(C), e.g. Western arka ‘big’ ~ Central–Eastern ngarka.

message: In some glossries prothesis is defined as "phoneme or phonemes", "phoneme or syllable"  Can anyone give an example of multiple-phoneme prothesis? Mukadderat 22:52, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: "Prothesis" is a very old term and has been used in a variety of senses. As far as I can tell, its meaning in historical linguistics is often limited to the addition of one euphonic vowel to the beginning of a word over the course of history. But you can also find it used to refer to the addition of more than one sound, and for almost any reason. The Roman grammarian Aelius Donatus (q.v.) gives as examples: gnatos pro natos, and tetulit pro tulit. Here, the "g" in "gnatos" is etymological, and the "te" in "tetulit" is really a reduplication, and not a prothesis in the historical-phonetics sense. Nevertheless, this can be taken as an example of the addition TWO sounds ("te").--Gheuf 21:58, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

message: This article reads more like someone trying to tell a story than write an encyclopedic article to me.  Take the following passage.
:In 1927 it was announced that the Great Gama and Zbyszko would face each other again. The day finally came in 1928 when both wrestlers met again in Patiala. The result of the bout was, however, drawn quickly when Gama threw Zbyszko in only 42 seconds.
Is there really any reason not to write it more like "Gama and Zbyszko had a much anticipate match in 1928, in which Gama threw Zybszko in 42 seconds to win?"?

message: Hi Str1977, just a friendly note to say that you have some legitimate criticism but you un-did an hours worth of work in making your changes.  I don’t recall removing any criticism, in fact the part regarding the lawsuit and conspiracy theories which are really not on topic with regard to this part of the article were left untouched. What you restored was not a true statement “Pius XII's role during World War II has recently become a source of controversy.” It is not recent but rather has appeared in two distinct phases as I outlined in a detailed manner in my revisions.  I did not want to remove the Lehrer comment even though I concluded what you did when you removed it (it is way out of context). Overall, I have made this section read much smoother where and when criticism appeared.  I am reworking the article just slightly to include all the items I see that you like as well as restoring the historical timeline I gave to the article.  Thanks!!

Talk:Grand final

message: According to the Full Points Footy website, the first "grand final" to decide a football premiership was in 1889 between Norwood and Port Adelaide of the then South Australian Football Association, when the season ended with them having equal win-loss ratios (source) - Lukeoz 17:26, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I have removed the inadvertently anachronistic assertion that the final score of the  Premiership Elimination Match was Collingwood 6.9 (45) to South Melbourne's 5.10 (40). This is wrong on two counts.
Firstly, although the scoring of a behind had an effect on the ensuing play under the rules of the VFA, the premiership table was determined solely on the basis of goals scored; therefore, even though one might record the "scores" of the match as Collingwood six goals and nine behinds versus South Melbourne's five goals and ten behinds — as does, for example, Ross, J. (ed), 100 Years of Australian Football 1897-1996: The Complete Story of the AFL, All the Big Stories, All the Great Pictures, All the Champions, Every AFL Season Reported, Viking, (Ringwood), 1996, at page 34 — the official "result" of the match was Collingwood 6 to South Melbourne's 5.
Secondly, it was not until the VFL breakaway in 1897 that behinds were actually registered as part of the match results, and it was only then that goals contributed  six points to a team's total score and behinds one point. Lindsay658 (talk) 22:36, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Recep Tayyip Erdoğan

message: His name was presented in Arabic script (loosely transliterates to Tayyab Rajab Erdoan), which was easily readable by most Muslims who can read Arabic script (i.e. the Quran), read and understand English, by default the entire Arabic-speaking world who can speak English and those of the 240 million people of Pakistan who can speak English. I form part of the first group. However, as nearly all of these cannot read Turkish, unless they learn some Turkish, they have no idea what Turkish sounds like phonetically and hence it looks awkward to pronounce. Have not found a discussion covering its removal, but it seems to defy logic to remove a simple three word text that helped so many, such as myself.
