 * Keep deleted: not a word in a language. PUC – 20:38, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a very strong claim. On what basis? Theknightwho (talk) 19:01, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Honestly, it seems to be deleted out of process to begin with. I'd support an undeletion, but I'm unsure how it'd be labeled. (I do agree as well that Translingual as it stands is problematic) AG202 (talk) 21:17, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Undelete. As for how to label it, I'd put it under both Dutch and French since it's used in running text in both languages (e.g. "mayon(n)aise à l'ancienne" and "mayon(n)aise met citroen"). Binarystep (talk) 22:42, 14 August 2022 (UTC)


 * This is a tricky one. It's kind of like a(n) or "hono(u)r" (which might be attestable: ) except instead of being intended to cover two spellings from one language, it seems to be covering two spellings from different languages? But the way Wiktionary is set up, it has to be assigned to particular language(s). I guess undelete if it's attested in CFI-meeting running text in one or more languages, as Binarystep says above. Ideally someone will go ahead and add cites so we aren't in a position of immediately RFVing and then re-deleting it. - -sche (discuss) 19:19, 17 August 2022 (UTC)


 * undelete it's definitely attested in running text, as well as extensively as a generic term in contexts like menus. The original page that was deleted had it separately as a French noun and a Dutch noun; absent a category for oligolingual terms, this seemed like the best solution Pseudomonas (talk) 18:54, 7 October 2022 (UTC)
