Category:Translingual pronouns
Huh? --Yair rand (talk) 01:44, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The translingual sections of Chinese characters do tend to function like a language, with full definitions and parts of speech. I find it confusing, but until that issue gets sorted out I feel we can't delete this. Mglovesfun (talk) 13:17, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * But we only have Translingual sections for single Chinese characters, not compounds. -- Prince Kassad 14:26, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I think a good solution for this would be to change 'translingual' for Chinese entries (which is simply too vague/confusing) to a more specific heading that more accurately describes what it really is. I think using the name of a language family or some other kind of descriptive group name would fit well. Perhaps even the name of the script? —CodeCat 15:42, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
 * We also have Category:Translingual adverbs, Category:Translingual adjectives and Category:Translingual verbs, all of which seem a bit odd. Codecat's solution doesn't seem better than what we have now. We need some like Tooironic/Jamesjiao/Atitarev to tell us what these actually are and why translingual is better than dividing into individual sections. I can see why a characters would be translingual, as the Latin letter a is the Latin letter a no matter where you are in the world, but extending that to verbs, pronouns, adverbs and adjectives seem much harder to comprehend.

Oh, these are bizarre categories... - -sche (discuss) 19:49, 16 February 2012 (UTC) Kept, no consensus, and no realistic chance of achieving one. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:52, 6 April 2012 (UTC)
