Talk:ain

I didnt put in the ux template for "wee wee ain" because i really dont thinik it needs a translation but perhaps i should. i'llsee what other pages are like. Soap (talk) 15:39, 3 April 2019 (UTC)
 * seems at least some pages, e.g. https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/furth#Scots, use normal text for Scots. Soap (talk) 16:28, 3 April 2019 (UTC)

I may have mistaken ain as "own" for ain as "one", but Im a bit on the fence here .... I looked up the nursery rhyme here, and they seem to pair the word ain with one, as in "Mommy's wee little one". On the other hand, it isnt a narrow translation either, so while I think I was correct originally   Im taking the use-example back out of  the definition for now.

If added as a quote, it would appear like this: I just really think the "translation" that changes just one word ruins it, and so does a translation request message. This nursery rhyme was published in a book intended for small children just as it is, with no need of translation. Sure, my mother had to explain it to me, but she had to explain just as many words in the traditional English nursery rhymes as well. And if English speakers are familiar with ain, maybe it should be considered standard English too and I could argue that it should be treated like furth. But I dont like sidestepping templates. — Soap — 01:13, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
