Countability[edit]

The entry says "uncountable" but the newly added &lit sense (an actual fat rabbit) is never uncountable. It seems a bit silly to add countability purely for an &lit, but I suppose we must...? Equinox 19:21, 18 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

It would be a little weird to have a plural entry just for an &lit sense. However, "chubby bunnies" is attestable on GBooks referring to the game; it's just used as an uncountable synonym of chubby bunny, not really a plural. Removing the &lit is another option. 70.172.194.25 00:12, 19 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox That's my inclination too. It feels odd, but I think you're right that we have to put "countable and uncountable". Graham11 (talk) 04:05, 20 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
Yeah. We should be true about countability. The real issue here is that I hate obvious &lits. But that decision won't be made on this page. Thanks for input, my bunnies <3 Equinox 07:11, 21 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
User:Equinox, can you provide a heuristic for what kind of &lit you think is not worthwhile? E.g., of abdominal region, bear market, aller chercher, fun house, which of these would you want to exclude? 70.172.194.25 08:56, 23 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
70, thanks for asking, but I think the real question here isn't "what is an &lit" but "what is SoP". And my strong feelings might be interesting but not necessarily very representative :) Maybe a question for WT:TR? Equinox 00:41, 1 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
