Talk:deglutinization

RFV discussion: October–December 2020
Rfv-sense for the linguistics sense added by. I can't find any use of it at all. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 07:24, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

I'm finding it with an 's' in Grierson and those quoting him, e.g. the "language in its original form is strictly an agglutinative one, but a gradual process of deglutinisation has for some time been going on." "But the further process of deglutinisation will be best observed by considering the participial forms of the verb." (George Grierson, 1903, Linguistic Survey of India, p. 14) There's obviously no difference in 'z' for gluten and 's' for linguistics,, both are found for the former. kwami (talk) 08:00, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I suggest having both spellings as of . For both the gluten and the language sense (and the former also about cells etc. in chemistry) we find, more easily,, for which we already have the verb , which is probably also a misconstruction (I’d say in both senses, but at least linguistic senses). I also find  from very old but only in chemical matters. Fay Freak (talk) 13:06, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * That's probably the right approach., quotations should support the spelling under question, and must be independent (so anything Grierson-related only counts as one use). If you're going to add rare English words, you will have to be aware of these considerations. —Μετάknowledge discuss/deeds 18:25, 9 October 2020 (UTC)

Quotations don't need to support the particular spelling. We commonly mix together trivial variants such as -ise vs -ize. But this does appear to be a rare variant / misconstruction of deglutinize, so I support noting that. kwami (talk) 00:44, 10 October 2020 (UTC)

RFV-failed. It appears that Grierson is the only one who has used this misconstruction, with echoes from those who quote him. Kiwima (talk) 21:22, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
