Talk:कनक

Etymology 1
The Persian word must be. According to http://rekhtadictionary.com/meaning-of-khunuk, the Hindi spelling is. The closest entry in R:hi:McGregor is:
 * [P. k͟hunukī]
 * f. coolness, slight chill (in air)

with the suffix (from ) and without the second उ. Depending on your analysis of the term, you could either put hi or hi on this entry. Kutchkutch (talk) 10:40, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Well, I think, in that case, it's best to remove that sense since ख़ुनुकी/ख़ुनकी(abstract feminine noun from adjective ख़ुनुक + -ई -> कनक seems quite weird. Also, I have noticed many times R:hi:Dasa gives such weird senses and the Hindi Wiktionary (as far as I notice) is kind of just a copy of it, so it also gives that sense. 🔥 शब्दशोधक 🔥 11:24, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
