Talk:вес

@Atitarev, Cinemantique, Wikitiki89 Does the second meaning of вес "hanging position, suspended position" exist at all outside the expression на весу́? Benwing2 (talk) 09:31, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

It's a set expression but "вес" uses an abnormal stress pattern.--Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 09:44, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

@Atitarev OK. The reason I'm asking is that Zaliznyak has two entries for вес:

• 1c(1) with partitive, meaning "weight"
• 1a, in на весу́, meaning "in a suspended position"

I take the stress on весу to mean it's a locative form, where the end stress is expected. But Zaliznyak's entry implies that вес meaning "suspended position" with accent pattern 1a exists outside of the expression на весу́. Does nominative вес "suspended position" actually exist? I'm trying to figure out whether to include an entry for this word with this meaning. We do currently, but ruwiki doesn't; it only has на весу. Benwing2 (talk) 10:06, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

It's not used outside the expression. I was surprised to see a separate headword. I think we can do as ruwiki. We need the entry for на весу, which I can make. The declension table can use locative form "весу́" marked as "only in "на весу́"" with no separate sense. --Anatoli T. ^{(обсудить}/^вклад) 10:48, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
