Talk:para-rayos

Spelling
All pre-KWF sources have this as "pararayos" (since the Spanish word is pararrayos), so "para-rayos" kinda doesn't make sense. Do you know if there's anything in Masinop na Pagsulat? I'm feeling this is gonna be like. Arbitrary spellings. Mar vin kaiser (talk) 14:15, 30 July 2023 (UTC)


 * @Mar vin kaiser Not sure which exactly applies. Maybe it's this one?
 * 11.5 Sa Bagong Tambalan. Ginagamit ang gitling sa mga bagong tambalang salita, gaya sa sumusunod.
 * But that's for Tagalog words.
 * Or maybe this
 * 12.40 GITLING. Ang gitlíng (hyphen) ay tanda upang paghiwalayin ang mga inuulit na salita o mga inuulit na pantig sa salita. Ginagamit din ito upang ihiwalay sa panlapi ang mga hiram na salitang nása orihinal na baybay at ang mga pangngalang pantangi.
 * and has an example :kontra-Marxismo Ysrael214 (talk) 14:20, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Lol none of the scenarios apply. It's not "inuulit na salita", not "inuulit na pantig", not even "salitang nasa orihinal na baybay" nor "pangngalang pantangi". --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 16:23, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
 * @Mar vin kaiser All I can think of is to connect the Tagalog "para" with the Spanish rayos so it be semantically similar. Ysrael214 (talk) 16:26, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
