Talk:knottra

papel, knottra

These contain definitions rather than translations (or translations with glosses, or simply glosses, if the concept does not have an English equivalent), and do not make sense. Further, the comma is not used as a decimal point in English. &mdash; Paul G 08:25, 29 April 2007 (UTC)

 * I'm not familiar with much medicine or pathology, so I don't know whether "adenoma" is correct too, but at least in the colloquial use of "knottra" it does mean the little "pimples" or "bumps" (or whatever their names are in English), which is part of the goose flesh. More commonly used as a (reflexive) verb, however: "skinnet knottrar sig" (="the skin is forming goose bumps"). "Papel" I've never heard. \Mike 07:23, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I have now reinstated the sense about the goose bumps, as I'm unable to find any indication in adenoma or adenoma that it could have anything to do with goose bumps. Rather, I wonder what source has been used to say that "knottra" has anything to do with benign epithelial tumor arising in epithelium of mucosa (stomach, small intestine and bowel), glands (endocrine and exocrine) and ducts. Perhaps I should request verification of that sense ;) \Mike 11:53, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
