Talk:gry

gry
Second Latin sense: "dirt under the fingernails"; Lewis & Short define this word only as "the least trifle", with a single sample quote from Plautus. --EncycloPetey 03:26, 9 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Ne gry quidem loquitur: hyperbole item proverbialis apud Graecos, pro eo, quod est, ne tantulum quidem. Nam Gry, minimum quiddam significat, aut sordes unguium, rem videlicet vilissimam, aut vocem suillam, quam edere solent ii, qui gravatur sermone respondere, aut numisma minutissimum. —Stephen 22:08, 10 November 2007 (UTC)


 * If you please, this is the English language wiktionary. Could you please make your citation, and argument, in English (that is, the citation should be translated to show the usage.) - Amgine/talk 02:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
