Talk:turntables

RFV discussion: July–August 2021
RFV of the verb "en tables have turned". I don't think this is really a verb (I don't find e.g. turntablesed), I think it may exist only in "how the turntables" or other malapropisms of phrases with "tables have turned". That might be more a matter for RfC, to determine the POS and define it in a way that better captured how it was used, except that it doesn't actually seem to be used in durably-archived media at all. (The Office is archived by libraries, but it's not clear to me that "how the turntables" as spoken in The Office attests a verb turntables as opposed to being the phrase how the turntables a la how the tables have turned.) - -sche (discuss) 07:53, 24 July 2021 (UTC)


 * I see a few (non-durable) uses on Reddit, in joky meme posts, e.g. Ah the turntables, Oh the turntables, How the turntables??. Evidently not a verb anyhow. Equinox ◑ 12:37, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
