Talk:Forehead

message: Cockney pronunciation? You obviously know absolutely nothing about the English Langauge. Perhaps you ought to consider investing in an English Dictionary before you come online to edit other peoples' serious work on subjects they are proficient in. Speaking of proficiency, 'severely doubt' is incorrect English - the adverb you are looking for is 'seriously'; 'seriously doubt' is more sound. Look up severe in a dictionary - it doesn't make sense as you've used it.
Dude, chill out, he was just making a simple joke on the Cockney tendency to exclude the 'h' at the beginning of a syllable.  How making such a comment-which at least shows some familiarity with a Cockney accent, and therefore a variety of English accents-indicates he knows nothing of English seems nothing more than the overreaction of a self-righteous and pompous know-it-all who, in fact, doesn't.
Also, 'severly doubt' is correct.  It might be a bit of the ol' slang, but it still makes sense.  Are you not a native English speaker, per chance?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.28.33.173 (talk) 02:30, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Cockney Pronunciation?!?

message: The evidence does suggest that the pronunciation rhyming with "horrid" is in fact later (not to mention less logical) than "fore-head." Early spellings of forehead include "for~heafod" from Ælfic (ca. 1000). We also have "for-hed" (late 14th c.), "forr-head" (17th c.), not to mention from the early 14th century:  "In mie foreheuede iwrite mi name {th}u schalt iseo." Etc. (Check OED for these and more.) 
I don't see any attestation of a spelling that would give a rhyme with horrid before the 15th c. and nothing clearly indicating that before the 16th. If you have a clear example, please cite it.
I think the pronunciation note should be changed.
By the way:  When lambasting others for a lack of knowledge of the English language, it is best to avoid misspellings (e.g., "English Langauge").

message: So, uh... why Patrick Stewart? Can't we get an image of some unidentified average person's forehead? It just seems odd to have a picture of Patrick Stewart to illustrate a forehead. -kotra (talk) 23:52, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I'm looking for anything on wikipedia referencing or talking about a practice called "flat-foreheading".  I've heard that it's been done all over the world, but I know it's was done with the Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast.  Any help would be great, thanks!

thread_title:  Supraorbital Ridges 

message: Recent addition of the image  is not an improvement, in my opinion. It is not of a human forehead, so it is much less identifiable as what it is. The unnatural appearance of the hairline and eyebrows, as well as the partial eyeball make it hard to identify it immediately as a forehead. Humans are hard-wired to recognize human facial features, so the current picture of the human forehead is easily and immediately identified in comparison.   signed, Willondon (talk)  14:35, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
