Talk:筶一下

RFD discussion: December 2016–September 2017
Looks SOP. 筶 means "to try". 一下 is suffix/particle that indicates trying or a little bit. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 17:58, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Are you sure that 筶 itself is a verb? In that case I'll support deletion. Otherwise the impression I got from the Wikipedia entry was that its used in the  idiom 筶一下, rather than an independent part of speech.--Prisencolin (talk) 04:42, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm pretty sure. I think the page is just giving an example. All the dictionaries I've checked use 告 instead though:
 * 《四川方言词典》

"告 gao4 （动）试：妈喊快点～鸭儿胃口呢. （川文82·8·63）｜这双鞋你来～一下，看穿不穿得."
 * 《成都话方言词典》

"告 gào〔〕试：衣服合不合身，你先～一下."
 * 《成都方言詞典》

"【告】 試：你來～一下，看合不合適"

 * The references you provided seems to indicate that in the "to try" sense it's only used in the phrase 告一下. That suggests that we just keep 筶一下 as a soft redirect.--Prisencolin (talk) 20:59, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I think it's just a common collocation. The first example sentence in 四川方言词典 shows that 一下 is not necessary. The same would apply to 試一下 in standard Mandarin. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 21:10, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirected. Wyang (talk) 22:09, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * , another problem is that 筶 no longer has that definition. I have not been able to find any sources that use 筶 instead of 告. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 22:21, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Redirect to 告 instead then? Wyang (talk) 22:22, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I guess there's not much harm in that. — justin(r)leung { (t...) 22:30, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Ok, redirected to 告. Wyang (talk) 22:31, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
