 * I don't believe there is any meaning to "perrot", at least in English, other than as a proper noun. Mud Hutter 02:13, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * You mean Perrot, not perrot. The word perrot seems to be a French word, since it appears in etymologies that way.  That's why it can't be a redirect.  If it exists in any language as a word, then that information needs to exist on the entry page. --EncycloPetey 02:17, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * A little Google searching convinces me that "perrot" is not a word in French or any other language. Maybe you should take a second look at those etymologies. Mud Hutter 02:39, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * It's one reason I requested the word. It may be an obsolete word from Old French or Middle French; or else the dictionaries have the etymology wrong. --EncycloPetey 02:51, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ok then. May I point out that "risograph", also in the wanted list, is not a common noun either. It's a trade name. A Risograph is a high-speed digital printing system manufactured by the Riso Kagaku Corporation. Since it's a trade name, it would have to be capitalized. (See Wikipedia on that). -- Mud Hutter 03:00, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
