Hi there. If you use the {{prefix}} template, you get the category for free. SemperBlotto 21:06, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks, can you please show me how to use it in the entry sborsare?
OK (at second attempt) - needed a different template. (You might want to read Wiktionary:About Italian some time.) SemperBlotto 21:14, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I will, thanks:)Jobnikon 21:32, 8 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your word list[edit]

Hi there. 1) Don't forget that many of those blue links will be words in other languages, but lacking an Italian entry. 2) I see you have listed many apocopic forms - see saltar for an example of how we format those. SemperBlotto 10:15, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

thanks, (BTW the list was generated by a python script) Jobnikon 10:45, 9 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

German etymologies[edit]

Hi. I noticed you added several wrong etymologies to German entries. For example, befehlen is not derived from the prefix be- and the stem fehlen, but rather is related to the noun Befehl. So please be more careful, it's not always as simple as it seems. Thanks! Longtrend (talk) 21:00, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

you are absolutely right, thank you for bringing this to my attention, I and I will be much more careful in the future.Jobnikon (talk) 11:06, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hebrew script and Jewish Babylonian Aramaic[edit]

Hi Jobnikon, I am collecting a lot of translations of the word "water" on the French Wiktionary. I found the one in Jewish Babylonian Aramaic within that book. Yet I do not know the Hebrew script and I do not knwo any person who knows it on the french Wiktionary. So I am requiring your help :). I found that the word looks like מיא but I am not completely sure. So could you confirm that water is מיא and if not could you give me the correct spelling? Thanks in advance.

Hi Pamputt. Yes, the Aramaic word is spelled מיא (note that the Hebrew one is still מים). Good luck! Jobnikon (talk) 13:38, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
