Defined as a noun. Does it mean "relating to the English language"? DCDuring TALK 21:00, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the term has a similar range of meanings to English. If you pick up an English-Arabic/Arabic-English dictionary to check, you'll probably see the term printed on the cover. Chuck Entz (talk) 21:42, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Fixed. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:45, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The Arabic script, especially with diacritics, looks horrible and harder to read lately but that's not my fault. I don't know when the default font was changed and why. It also looks bad in the Arabic Wiktionary. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:56, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Does it mean Englishman, Englishwoman, Englishmen? Or just Englishman. {{ar-noun}} allows feminine forms, right? It definitely allows plurals. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:45, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oops, fixed that as well. Just "Englishman". --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 22:50, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't added feminine and plural forms directly into {{ar-noun}} because fhead and plhead didn't seem to work when I tried. It should be f=إنكليزية, fhead=إنْكِلِيزِيّةٌ, p=إنكليزِين, plhead=إنْكِلِيزِيِّن. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 22:55, 26 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
