Covid-19 not a hot word anymore[edit]

Covid-19 not a hot word (seeː Appendix:Glossary#hot_word ) anymore - as the common criterion "spanning at least one year" is now met. Delete the HOT SENSE annotation ? --MistaPPPP (talk) 19:50, 12 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

English section[edit]

Is there a point to having an English section here? It seems redundant to Translingual. To be fair, the IPA pronunciation and lists of 'nyms are unique to English, but I'm not sure that's enough of a reason, because by the same reasoning we could probably add German, Romanian, Turkish, etc., which would each have their own unique pronunciations and 'nyms. I don't have a strong opinion. 70.172.194.25 01:23, 17 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

The following discussion has been moved from Wiktionary:Requests for verification (permalink).

This discussion is no longer live and is left here as an archive. Please do not modify this conversation, but feel free to discuss its conclusions.


Rfv-sense: COVID-19; the disease caused by the virus.

Hot word since 2020. There is only one citation (from October 2020), and it is iffy: "symptoms of SARS-CoV-2 infection". This could refer to the disease as such, but could equally be referring to the virus. Cnilep (talk) 08:07, 16 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Also, why does this have both Translingual and English, with the same definition? Should this RfV technically be under RFVN since it's challenging a Translingual sense? 70.172.194.25 08:37, 16 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yes, sorry, it should be Translingual. I was confused since the citations are mostly in English. Cnilep (talk) 08:47, 16 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

I also left a comment on Talk:SARS-CoV-2 regarding the apparent duplication of information between Translingual and English. 70.172.194.25 01:44, 17 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
