Senses "An upwelling of molten material from the Earth's mantle." and "An arc of glowing material erupting from the surface of a star." Aren't these actually two different uses of the same sense? If not, how do they differ? When it's not in an arc shape, is there a different word for it, or is the fact it's an arc just incidental? Mglovesfun (talk) 15:12, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- Seems straightforward enough to me. One of Earth, one in a star. Removed RFC--WF back from hols (talk) 10:34, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
Etymology[edit]
English etymology divided into 1 and 2 are the same etymology from the same origin just verb/noun of feather/to feather. Someone should combine them. I'm not going to even try to tackle that overcomplicated senses1-x word vomit. Darkmagine (talk) 15:15, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
