Talk:niggerization

RFV discussion: March 2024
Sense 2: "The act or process of being exposed or subjected to black people or their influence." Corresponds to the intransitive verb, which I also RFV above. Equinox ◑ 08:58, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

 * The definition needs cleanup (is it really "process of being exposed [...] to black people", or is it rather "the act or process of exposing to black influence", or some better wording like "the act of making more black"?). But the underlying thing which this definition appears to have been attempting to cover does seem to exist; beyond Kiwima's cites, I added one to the citations page where it's translating Nazi German Verniggerung. It's possible there are also enough cites to split sense 1 into ~"the act/process of reducing/dehumanizing black people to niggers" and ~"the act of treating (someone non-black) the way niggers are treated". - -sche (discuss) 00:47, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Passes, IMO, with a slightly emended definition. - -sche (discuss) 02:43, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
