Talk:reekin o pish


 * 16 August 2006: Requests for deletion (passed)

The RFD seems to centre around whether these are real words or not. They are (although reek means smoke rather than smell) and can meaningfully be strung into a sentence if one chooses to. That's hardly the point though as they are no more of a notable expression than, say, "smelling of farts", "looking a bit tired" or "tasting a bit funny". Mutt Lunker 00:05, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

RFD 2
SOP. Granted, it survived RFD back in '06, but back then things were different. --Noodlefrow (talk) 02:55, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

reekin o pish
The stated language is Scots. There are three senses, all of which I ask for attestation per WT:ATTEST:
 * Smelling of piss (urine).
 * Smelling extremely bad.
 * Having bad body odour.

Since this may be a sum-of-parts term anyway and thus subject to RFD, where it is currently listed at WT:RFD, please consider placing the attesting quotations at Citations:reekin o pish. --Dan Polansky (talk) 09:11, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
