Task forces |
Welcome to WikiProject Linguistics. We are a group of editors collaborating to improve linguistics articles on Wikipedia. We cover a broad range of subjects within the general field of linguistics, including theoretical linguistics, applied linguistics, etymology, and phonetics. You will find a number of resources on this page to help you with improving Wikipedia's coverage of linguistics; take your time and have a look around. Please feel free to ask a question on the discussion page, and we will do our best to help you.

[edit]Articles to be created
[edit]- Question semantics -- This is a huge area of research for semantics, and it seems high time that there be a wiki page on it. Biktor627 (talk) 03:26, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
- I have started the very basics article skeleton and provided some references, here: Draft:Question_semantics Biktor627 (talk) 22:05, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
- Pedestrian’s Paradox -- Botterweg14 (talk) 01:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Commitment (linguistics) (in the sense of a discourse commitment) -- Botterweg14 (talk) 01:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- Exhaustivity -- Botterweg14 (talk) 01:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- I'm currently drafting it up. Biktor627 (talk) 16:29, 28 March 2022 (UTC)
- Indeterminate pronoun -- Botterweg14 (talk) 01:57, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
- I wrote a starting point for and have posted it. Biktor627 (talk) 13:31, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
- Usage labels or "Context labels", see wikt:Wiktionary:ELE#Context_labels. -- Andrew Krizhanovsky (talk) 18:21, 22 November 2012 (UTC)
- Grammatical meaning and Lexical meaning. Now that write that I'm doubting whether these are the current terms; something akin to subcategorization in the former case and sense and reference in the latter. See, for example this version of Grammaticalization which referred to the two categories of meaning. Compare also Function word and Content word. Cnilep (talk) 03:25, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- Vocalization (currently a disambiguation page), the change of a consonant into a vowel or semivowel, a form of lenition, in some cases synonymous with approximation. There is an article on l-vocalization, but nothing on the topic in general. This term needs to be distinguished from several other concepts also called "vocalization", such as speech production, voice (phonetics), and consonant voicing and devoicing, and finding another term for the concept that does not have such ambiguity might be helpful. Or perhaps the concept should be described in the article on lenition. — Eru·tuon 23:10, 28 December 2014 (UTC)
- Doctrinal (grammar) 13th-16th c., rhymed Latin grammar for beginners
- Intergenerational transmission languages being passed on as a first language at home — Catrìona (talk) 21:16, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
Requests for expansion
[edit]- Case government - it is stub, without resources and has mistakes Cnevis (talk) 21:56, 22 February 2017 (UTC)
- List of glossing abbreviations - In classroom practice, this page has become a main reference to resolve glossing abbreviations in interlinear glossed text. In Wikipedia, this *should* be the basis for glossing with the templates
{{interlinear}}
and{{Gcl}}
and provide input to Module:Interlinear/data. Originally, this was compiled and extended in an opportunistic fashion. Not all glosses listed there have adequate literature references, yet. For some, no "conventional gloss" (for use within Wikipedia) has been suggested so far, for other glosses, there is need to confirm/review the "conventional gloss". More variants are needed and a discussion of systematic principles of forming abbreviations (e.g., -E or -ESS for essives). Chiarcos (talk) 13:18, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Working on it. Additional input would be nice, but I've got another score refs in the wing. — kwami (talk) 12:40, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Northern Subject Rule, I have added a large amount of text explaining the Celtic origin hypothesis for this feature, it now needs the Old English and (possibly) Norse theories including for balance. I really don't feel comfortable with doing it myself as I'm pretty useless with Old English. Can anybody help?Boynamedsue (talk) 07:36, 25 May 2021 (UTC)
- Comparative_case - Though this tagged as a high-importance linguistics article, the article is only a stub. The range of uses of "comparative case" needs to be clarified, and there needs to be more examples. Biktor627 (talk) 20:16, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
Requests for attention
[edit]- Tamil loanwords in Biblical Hebrew and the related Tamil loanwords in other languages appear to have some pov issues around tamil nationalism, and the former is of very poor quality (the grammar is spotty, loanwords are cited only transliteration, sometimes unvocalised, and sometimes seemingly inconsistent with the grammar suggested by the translation). Several of the examples also seem to be stretched at best and, one of the cited works also calls several of the examples provided by one of their other sources "highly controversial", something the article does not bring up. I also raised this on the etymology subproject but that appears fairly dead Tristanjlroberts (talk) 14:44, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
- Krishnamurti cites two of the etyma as successful loans without refering to the bible. This would mean Proto-Dravidian, give or take if the dates are uncertain. Dravidian and Tamil are probably cognate ethnonyms, still used as synonyms but distinguished later in linguistic discourse. So the fact that the article leads with "Tamil loanwords" is a sign of a rather local perspective where they may be synonyms. Perhaps it should be moved. Rhyminreason (talk) 22:34, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
- Maybe someone can help with Abkhaz vowels? Alaexis¿question? 07:12, 26 August 2021 (UTC)
- For editors interested in the use of IPA on American English dialect pages, this is a call for further thoughts and contributions on this discussion. Thanks! Wolfdog (talk) 00:56, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
- There is an RfM at Talk:Pied-Noir#Lowercase where some of the issues involve the definition of proper noun and loanword, and how they apply to this phrase. Comment there would be welcome. Elinruby (talk) 19:21, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
Requests for review
[edit]- I have re-written Arc Pair Grammar, but I'm a student editor through WikiEdu, and I'd like someone with background in the subject and more experience on Wikipedia to check it over JeanLackE (talk) 18:08, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
- classifier construction Newly created article, I would appreciate some feedback.--Megaman en m (talk) 20:13, 18 July 2019 (UTC)
- Linguistic Linked Open Data currently very much written from a technical perspective (because this is in the intersection with computer science), but requires a thorough look from the eyes of a linguist to improve readability Chiarcos (talk) 13:26, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- OntoLex also written from a technical perspective (because this is in the intersection with computer science), but requires a thorough look from the eyes of a linguist to improve readability Chiarcos (talk) 13:26, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Synizesis has been vastly expanded. Currently rated stub class, but I would be appreciate if it were considered for reassessment. Sem2wiki (talk) 09:48, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
- I expanded Relational grammar last month, and I'm curious whether or not it still qualifies as a stub. --ZeegoTheDeer (talk) 05:04, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
- I have recently read interactional linguistics and am curious as to why it is still considered a stub. I'd probably label it start or C grade article--Farleigheditor (talk) 12:28, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- I think I have added a bit of length to that article since it was given its stub status, but I don't really know how the quality grading is supposed to be changed and haven't thought about looking into it... Replayful (talk) 13:00, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- I took a look at the article, and I think it looks to be of sufficient quality and length to qualify as start, so I changed the rating, which, by the way, you can do by going to the talk page of the article and editing the class in the WP Linguistics header at the top. Also, should I remove this thread from here as the article review under question has been completed? Indigopari (talk) 08:11, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
- I think I have added a bit of length to that article since it was given its stub status, but I don't really know how the quality grading is supposed to be changed and haven't thought about looking into it... Replayful (talk) 13:00, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
- I wrote horror aequi, but it needs a linguist to look it over, a little more meat to get it beyond a stub, and probably better examples. — AjaxSmack 19:16, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
Categorizations
[edit]- The Category:Linguistics stub templates and Category:Translation stub templates have just been created. There are lots of stub templates to categorize. --Fadesga (talk) 11:17, 3 February 2016 (UTC)
