Talk:plectrum

RFV discussion: June 2019
Rfv-sense: "An anatomical part resembling a plectrum in shape." I don't find this in major Onelook dictionaries, nor does a Google search provide useful links. Mydictionary.com and askdefine.com have it, but they cite English Wiktionary as their source. The sense has been added by a blocked user Anemos in 3.2.2006. --Hekaheka (talk) 04:39, 15 June 2019 (UTC)


 * The OED's Third Edition updated September 2006 has: "Anatomy and Zoology. Any of various small, stiff projections of bone or other tissue; esp. (a) Entomology a ridge forming part of some insect stridulatory organs;  (b) a part of the columella of the amphibian ear. Formerly also: the uvula, or the tongue (obsolete rare)." with eight cites from 1792 to 2001.  I think we can keep the entry.    D b f  i  r  s   11:39, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
 * OK, thanks, case closed. --Hekaheka (talk) 10:01, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
