Etymology section decimated – why?
In this edit the extensive etymology section was decimated without any explanation. Could this be explained? __meco 16:28, 3 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Hi, I only just noticed this comment - you'd be betetr off leaving me a message on my talk page. The explanation is only that I was attempting to simplify the information and to make clear that the word is a combination of dey: and -ery:, which was rather obscured in the previous version.  Interested readers can then follow the links to those two pages to see further etymology for the respective components.  Widsith 14:35, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Why "bread-making place" became means "milk-related" in modern English?
Does anyone have a hypothesis? -- Nashev (talk) 12:32, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
