Talk:Nota accusativi

message: I am not competent to judge the factual content re: Hebrew grammar, but it seems unsatisfactory to explain "nota accusativi" with an example in a language that uses n.a. to indicate definite articles. Rob Burbidge 10:06, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: We need more examples of these.  The usage in Hebrew makes it seem to me like this is basically a preposition used to show the same thing as an accusative case would in a more synthetic language, which while interesting (I'm not aware of such things in any Indo-European languages I'm familiar with), doesn't show why this matters.  A quick search through Google yields no new info for me, so I hope someone has an idea. — ˈzɪzɨvə (talk) 01:50, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  How is this not just a preposition? 

message: My knowledge of Hebrew is less than minimal, but here goes. I needed 3 or 4 rereadings to understand the second sentence,It generally is applied to linguistic indicators of the accusative case, such as the use of the prefix "et" in Hebrew, for nouns in the accusative, which are indicated by use of the definite article (i.e. "the").
The relative clause at the end of the sentence is sloppy English; it gives the impression that Hebrew accusative nouns are indicated by the definite article, which is false (and would be weird if true). Also, all the textbooks I have seen state quite clearly that Hebrew has no case structure. Therefore it is wrong to speak of Hebrew “nouns in the accusative”. May I suggest the following revision:
It generally is applied to linguistic indicators of the direct object in languages which do not have a case system for nouns. An example is Hebrew, where the particle “et” marks the direct object, but “et” is used only with nouns which have the definite article (for other nouns the direct object is determined by word order).
This seems a bit long and clumsy. Will an expert please weigh in?

Are there languages that usually mark direct objects with a case inflection, but still use nota accusativi, at least sometimes?

message: I suppose it might be worth pointing that out in the article.
For example: "the question is based on a false premise", may be brought up justifiably. If you tell me you saw hunters with rifles nearby and I ask you why are the hunters hunting with spoons, the only ways you can answer that is by addressing the false premise that the hunters aren't hunting with spoons, or simply by pointing out the premise is false. I don't think it's an evasion, as the question really is faulty. --Skaruts (talk) 01:47, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Second, the integration of St. Mary's and Duluth Clinic were not a "combination" of religious and secular - rather, the secular aspect of Duluth Clinic was eliminated.

Talk:Humster

message: "The existence of hybrid cell lines would seem to cause a logical conflict for people that hold the two above statements for true."
This statement is false. It exists; therefore, it is logical. The issue would the be ethics of it. The introduction of human "parts" into non human life forms and non human life form's "parts" into humans is not a conflict; the definition of a human goes beyond just our parts, even down to the molecular level. 
The article on this aspect should use actual Catholic theology (if the focus is on the Catholic Church, other perspectives would need to be properly cited too though), instead of pseudo-logic with no citations.

thread_title:  Request for deletion of page 

message: "This is possible due to the unique promiscuity of hamster ova, which allows them to fuse with non-hamster sperm."
I checked all the sources for this article and could find nothing suggesting "the unique promiscuity of hamster ova" has been scientifically proven or studied. In fact, Yanagimachi & Rogers states,  "In this study we used the ova of the golden hamster simply because of convenience. The ova of other laboratory animals, such as the rat and mouse, might also be useful for this purpose," and in other studies, other laboratory animals have been used. But there are studies that suggest that among lab animals, hamster ova may be more promiscuous, if that's the term we want to use: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/624928/ But it wasn't tested with human sperm, and it doesn't suggest "unique promiscuity".
But I'm not a bio person or anything. If there's more to the hamster promiscuity thing, or if anyone wants to add any information speaking to which species' ova are more suitable etc., I took something out, so it'd be cool if someone could put something back in.

Talk:Saint-Géry Island

message: I have not been able to verify the claim that Saint Gaugericus built a chapel in 'Saint-Géry-Island'. I cannot find any reliable reference to this in primary literature (Vita Gaugerici, MGH. Online: https://www.dmgh.de/mgh_ss_rer_merov_3/index.htm#page/(649)/mode/1up), nor in secondary literature (e.g.: L. Pietri and M. Heijmans, Prosopgraphie Chrétienne du Bas Empire 4. La Gaule Chrétienne (314-614), p. 857-859.)
The citation currently referenced does not provide proof for a construction of a chapel by Gaugericus c. 580. The possibility exists that local legend and/or popular history has mistakenly retrojected a 10th century monastic foundation back into the 6th century. The French wiki for the Église Saint-Géry backs up my suspicion: 'Selon une ancienne tradition invérifiable' (according to an unverifiable tradition).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by HistoricusCrinitus (talk • contribs) 17:54, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
