Talk:scibile

RFV discussion: June–December 2019
When it does appear in English it's in the context of discussing other Latin works. DTLHS (talk) 13:41, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Also, the uses are almost always italicized (or else between quote signs), typographical clues that these uses are code-switching. Additionally, the plural used appears to be the Latin plural form scibilia, not scibiles. I think we need an entry . --Lambiam 20:35, 15 June 2019 (UTC)


 * If the English-style plural scibiles exists then that's convincing. Equinox ◑ 22:30, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

I added a number of cites to the citations page. Only one uses without italics or scare quotes, which, as DTLHS points out, could indicate code-switching, but which might also simply call attention to the fact that the term is used with a very specific meaning (as philosophical jargon). I also added some cites to show that if we are going to include this as a noun, we should probably also consider adding it as an adjective. Kiwima (talk) 01:30, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
