RFV[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Note WT:RFV#Special:Contributions/Nemzag. I have gone through all of Nemzag's mainspace edits; most have been verified or corrected by other knowledgeable editors. A minority had never been edited by other editors, or had been edited but still seemed to me to have problems. In about half of those cases, I was able to verify or correct the information myself. Here, I list all of the words I could not verify myself. I'd prefer the input of knowledgeable editors to actual citations (but conferred with other editors and decided RFV was the best venue). — Beobach 01:03, 13 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

The etymology, the related terms, the pronunciation, and of course the definition all need to be verified. — Beobach 01:03, 13 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Webster's apparently recent Albanian-English thesaurus glosses hipi as "climb" (verb), "mount" (noun?), with example collocations like i hipi shaluar "bestride", i hipi kalit "ride", and i hipi "hop". It has hipje në anije as "embarkation", hipi në anije as "embark". It doesn't have hypje or hypi, though (which are given in the etymologies of our entries). — Beobach 20:00, 13 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
The Këndime anglisht-shqip, or Albanian-English reader by Margaret Masson Hasluck (Cambridge, England: Cambridge University Press, 1932) has hypi as "climb, go up, get on, mount" and notes "like eci". — Beobach 20:06, 13 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
