Talk:emodulo

RFV discussion: May 2016–July 2017
Latin verb "to measure". Not in Lewis and Short, who do have. Needs formatting if OK. SemperBlotto (talk) 14:57, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Added some cites, although I cannot verify the meaning. DTLHS (talk) 15:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Should be cleaned up now, but shoud be checked if it really is.
 * The third cite at Citations:emodulo has the word "Sirenes" in it. That should be the plural of, a mythological creature known in English as siren. So the cite could refer to their sining and could have the word (deponent, translated as "to sing, celebrate" in Lewis & Short) in it.

 * Barytonesis pointed out that all the citations seem to be of emodulor "sing", not emodulo "measure": "first and third cites are deponent uses; the second is a passive past participle with a passive sense, so that would point to an active verb emodulo. However there are a few deponent verbs that behave just like that: their passive past participle has or can have a passive meaning, and not an active one like we would expect". Accordingly, I have moved the page. Emodulo fails RFV; emodulor is cited. - -sche (discuss) 06:58, 17 July 2017 (UTC)
