Which of these definitions is used for "pert breasts"? --Dangherous 20:29, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Concerning perter and pertest: I've heard the word pert used in various contexts and situations in the southern US; I doubt that perter and pertest are valid. With citations to use prior to 1960, I could believe. Also, pertly and pertness may fit an academic grammar, but seem contrived. Wayne Roberson, Austin, Texas 16:07, 22 May 2008 (UTC)

Etymology
Chambers 1908 just links it to. Equinox ◑ 05:33, 19 May 2019 (UTC)

Quotation
I just added a Piers Plowman quote to pert, but it was missing the "passus number", whatever that means. Could you check it for me? Queenofnortheast (talk) 11:47, 1 August 2021 (UTC)
 * turns out the quotation is not from Piers Plowman but from an anonymous 15th-century work called Richard the Redeless. I've updated it. — SGconlaw (talk) 16:22, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
