The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.

Dzongkha. Tag added a couple of years ago, but seemingly never added here. Theknightwho (talk) 21:28, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

The etymology is completely ridiculous, right? Bhutan doesn't have any particularly strong connection to the Balkans, as it's a pretty isolationist country located in a very different part of the world, so why would they borrow the word for such a basic concept as "dawn" from Serbo-Croatian? The user who added this was also blocked for 3 months for "add[ing] content in languages the user does not know". Then again, Chinese Wiktionary also has this, but it seems likely they just copied it without checking. 70.172.194.25 23:19, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

Yeah - that's what made me add this here in the first place. We've also got ཆི་རི་ལི་ཚ (chi ri li tsha), which seems marginally more likely, but (if real) probably comes from Russian. Theknightwho (talk) 23:36, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
