Talk:язычный
@Atitarev, Cinemantique, Wikitiki89, Wanjuscha, Per utramque cavernam, Guldrelokk A bunch of questions about this term:
- Formerly it had "language (attrib.), linguistic" as a definition. However, most dictionaries don't list this sense at all; Efremova is the only dictionary that lists it and she says it's dated.
- Ruwikt has "quarrelsome, argumentative" as a dated definition but I can't find this anywhere.
- It also appears to have the meaning "pagan", but I can't find that in any dictionary. What's going on here? Cf. this quote:
- [1]: "Национализм племенной язычен. Это не игра слов, напоминающая о том, что "язык" некогда значило народ, племя. Он язычен, как противухристианское понятие. Поэтому в христианской морали ему нет места, степени, графы".

- Another example where it appears to mean "pagan" (and Google Translate translates it as such):
- [2]: ... Владимир был язычнее самого Соломона из Ветхого завета. Следует согласиться, что число жен, а соответственно, и сыновей завышено, но пока неизвестно насколько. Мы считаем, что первая часть сообщения4 о посылке ...

- @Benwing2: About 3), it's certainly possible; see язы́ческий (jazýčeskij) and Wiktionary:Etymology scriptorium/2018/April § языческий. --Per utramque cavernam 17:41, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

- Sure. As mentioned above, Efremova is a good source for definition 3. Benwing2 (talk) 23:17, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

Senses 4 ("argumenative") and 5 ("pagan"). Benwing2 (talk) 00:01, 4 June 2018 (UTC) BTW a couple of examples that appear to mean "pagan" (and this is how Google Translate renders it):
- [3]: "Национализм племенной язычен. Это не игра слов, напоминающая о том, что "язык" некогда значило народ, племя. Он язычен, как противухристианское понятие. Поэтому в христианской морали ему нет места, степени, графы".
