Talk:gutteral

Added #2 with the etymologies. There are technically two possible words here, which I find interesting.

Interwicket please accept the changes I made. There are two separate words: investigate the etymologies "guttur" and "gotere" as I explained. signed Aeranlaes 18:45, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

You continue to revert my changes without discussing things with me. Fine, but you are keeping this nuance to language from someone who looks it up. Aeranlaes 18:54, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Re: "There are technically two possible words here". We don't allow possible words, we allow actual words; words people actually use. Where is this used? Mglovesfun (talk) 19:02, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * In practice you are correct, I cannot find an adjective use of gutteral in any dictionary, making it a neologism. Aeranlaes 19:16, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Dictionary shmictionary, what about actual human usage? Mglovesfun (talk) 19:32, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Haha I was conceding to you. People use "gutteral" all the time, hence why I wanted to add it. When people say gutteral they literally mean "in the gutter" - they don't mean harsh or throaty (which is what guttural means). However, if you write gutteral in this wiki entry it's underlined in red. We have not yet accepted gutteral into official language. Aeranlaes 19:38, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
