Welcome

[edit]

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.

Enjoy your stay at Wiktionary! Vininn126

Recent edits

[edit]

Hey! Good job on some of your recent edits, like podrzynać. In case you didn't know, we recently started adding hyphenation and rhymes to pages, which means exceedingly few pages have them, which means it's highly likely you didn't see them. I went ahead and added them to podrzynać and made poderżnąć. Rhymes are based on the last two syllables (starting from the second to last vowel). If it's one syllable then just start from the last vowel. If you're not sure how to do the hyphenation, preview and check the IPA as it separates the word into syllables for you. Thanks again for the edits! Vininn126 (talk) 12:33, 21 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Vininn126: Hey, many thanks for the info. I believe I saw hyphenation and rhymes once or twice in other pages, but there were so few that I just brushed it off. I'll keep this in mind when making future pages. Thank you for creating the poderżnąć perfective form as well. Hythonia (talk) 13:04, 21 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Translation glosses for single-definition entries

[edit]

Hey. I think it would be better if we didn't have these. Copy-pasting the definition line into the translation gloss is just pointless redundancy. See also WT:TRANS: "For entries with only a single sense, adding a translation heading is of little use." — Fytcha T | L | C 11:56, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Fytcha:: That's fair, apologies! I thought it looked better that way, despite not being of too much use, but I admit I missed that part of WS:TRANS. Will avoid adding them from now on. Hythonia (talk) 11:59, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thank you :) — Fytcha T | L | C 12:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

How is your username pronounced?

[edit]

Hello,

I am curious how you username is pronounced. Is this accurate?

Audio (US):(file)

If not, is your username pronounced as "hee-THO-nee-uh" or differently?

Thank you. Flame, not lame (talk) 18:38, 5 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Flame, not lame: the audio's how I pronounce it, yeah. Hythonia (talk) 18:36, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm starting to create audios of how different users' names are pronounced. You can do whatever you want with it. Flame, not lame (talk) 18:39, 6 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
