RFV discussion: July 2015[edit]

This entry has survived Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Please do not re-nominate for verification without comprehensive reasons for doing so.


Tagged but not listed, French section, RFV-sense "suite (group of connected rooms)". Shouldn't be hard to find if it's real: search Google Books and Issuu for travel guides, etc, that mention "suite"+"hôtel" and then check if they're using the right sense, e.g.:

  • 2012, Mexique 2013 (avec cartes, photos + avis des lecteurs), page 118:
    Cet hôtel de récente création est installé dans une belle maison du XIXe siècle, près du monument à la Révolution. [] Compter 695 $ pour une chambre standard pour 2 personnes et 850 $ pour une suite.
  • 2015, Circuits - été 2015 (by Thomas Cook Belgium):
    Le City Palace est une suite de petites places []
  • 2015 January 25-30, Hôtel de Paris, page 7:
    dans la Suite Churchill

Btw, fr:suite has several more senses than our entry suite. - -sche (discuss) 09:01, 23 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Cited, I think. Could a French-speaker confirm that? @Lmaltier, Darkdadaah, Renard Migrant. - -sche (discuss) 17:50, 23 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
Of course, it's real, and it should be added to fr.wikt: group of connected rooms in a hotel (same sense as in English). However, the 2nd citation above clearly uses a different sense. Lmaltier (talk) 17:54, 27 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
RFV-passed, then. (Plenty more citations can be found using the search I described above.) - -sche (discuss) 06:40, 31 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Catalan[edit]

I added a definition for Catalan as found in the Gran Diccionari de la llengua catalana. I'm not totally sure of the pronunciation, so I didn't add it. I think that the ca-IPA template won't work because of the French spelling. Catalan Wiktionary lists the pronunciation /ˈsujt/, but I'm more inclined to believe the pronunciation /'swit/ listed on the GDLC.
