Talk:outparamoured

RFV discussion: October–November 2022
Probably a hapax nonce, only used once by Shakespeare (first quarto: "in woman out paromord the Turke", first folio: "in Woman, out-Paramour'd the Turke"). Everything else is clearly quoting or referencing Shakespeare, e.g.,. 98.170.164.88 22:59, 15 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Actually I found some more uses of "out-paramoured the Turk", clearly a Shakespeare reference, but maybe this evidence supports its existence as an idiom., , , , , , . Are these, along with the last link of my above comment, sufficient to keep it? If kept, should the lemma be "outparamour", "outparamoured", "outparamour(ed) the Turk", or some other similar variation (and what about the hyphen)? Here's the only use I found that doesn't use the word "Turk": . 98.170.164.88 23:10, 15 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Here I find, “they out-swear the French, out-drink the Dutch, and out-paramour the Turk.” --Lambiam 09:20, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

 * I've added most of the above to Citations:outparamoured. Now the question is how we should present this as an entry. I think we could have an entry for the verb, with as an alt form, and then mention in usage notes that it's usually used in the phrase "out-paramour the Turk" (which is a reference to Shakespeare). Alternatively, we could put the entry at , since all but one of the present citations use that verbal phrase. Or we could have both. 98.170.164.88 21:15, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I've gone ahead and created out-paramour, out-paramour the Turk, and a verb sense of paramour. Ioaxxere (talk) 05:43, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
