Formatting issues
Hello, I've blocked you for 15 minutes to get your attention. Thank you for adding Telugu words to Wiktionary. However, formatting is rather important here. Please read WT:ELE (if you have the time and patience) otherwise, follow these tips:

Mglovesfun (talk) 13:39, 14 March 2012 (UTC)
 * Use the header ===Noun=== not ===noun===
 * Use directly under this header, or
 * Most important, use # (hash) not * asterisk as entries that do not contain a hash at the start of a line will be tagged with (i.e. no definition)
 * Adding interwikis is optional; we have many bots for this purpose.
 * Also use * for anything that is not a definition, and please don't use the references header when there are no references. Mglovesfun (talk) 18:10, 15 March 2012 (UTC)
 * I've just removed all your instances of ===References=== with no references underneath. Please stop adding this. Mglovesfun (talk) 10:02, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi. The correct spelling is calendar! I've fixed your existing entries. Equinox ◑ 15:45, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

Transliteration
Please remember to add transliteration to your entries! This can be done by changing into  and writing the pronunciation where it says "translit" in the template. Thanks for working on Telugu! --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 05:46, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Of or pertaining to జయము
Hi, please write definitions in English. I see why you've done this, but we want definitions to be wholly in English. could be a related term to. Is my revised definition ok? Mglovesfun (talk) 13:41, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Gender for
You know, you can adjust to include genders, just like, , or , can you or someone else? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 17:28, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
 * For example. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 21:12, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I've added the neuter gender feature to the Telugu noun template; can you give me an example of a Telugu neuter (or neutral gender) noun? That would be nice. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 22:20, 23 May 2012 (UTC)

I don't know why the Telugu Wiktionary entry has a link to the English Wiktionary's Main Page, but is it a noun or a verb? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 01:49, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Two things
Hi,

Thank you! Mglovesfun (talk) 10:58, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 1) Alternative forms still need noun header and  (or whatever, adjective, verb, etc.)
 * 2) Please don't use Noun1 and Noun2 as headers. Noun 1 and Noun2 (with spaces) are I suppose allowable but discouraged in favor of just 'Noun'. The same header can appear more than once in a single entry.

Gender, gender
Do you know the gender of the nouns you enter? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 10:29, 23 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I know the gender of some of the nouns and entering them. But I do not know the gender of others.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 12:46, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

 * You need to add the language code and the name of the category to the template. See Category:te:Pathology. 13:59, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Hello? Could you please fix the categories you created? 10:29, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi Rajasekhar1961,
 * Thanks for using template . To make it work right, you need to add two more things: 1) the language code (for Telugu, that's "te"), 2) the name of the category.
 * For example, for Category:te:Climatology, you write  . Thanks, Curious (talk) 14:32, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

కర్బనము to బొగ్గుపులుసు
Dr. Raja, a user named DerekWinters moved one of your Telugu entries. How would you rate the move? (Maybe I could act as a whistle-blower for you in case he does the same to other articles, especially chemical elements, it seems.) --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 17:34, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
 * It appears to be wrong redirection. Can you cancel the redirection. The earlier entry is correct. There is another entry బొగ్గుపులుసు వాయువు which is equal to carbon dioxide a gas.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 01:59, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I moved the page back. How will you deal with బొగ్గుపులుసు? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 05:04, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I have changed it to acid of carbon. Thank you for helping Telugu language as a whistle blower. I will be happy clarity any disparities or creating some interesting new Telugu words.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:09, 18 November 2012 (UTC)
 * DerekWinters made ఉదజని. How is that entry? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 22:56, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi, have you ever thought about making a Telugu-language version of this template? --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 00:13, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for letting me know about the list templates. Can You help in making the Telugu List templates. I can translate these item words into Telugu language for this purpose of general usage. Thank you once again.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:42, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Here's another example of a list template (no offense intended, just to illustrate what to do with the hypernym parameter): . --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 07:37, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Now all we need is to fill in the hypernym, and the red links if necessary. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 07:58, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the hypernym should be in plural form like "states of India". The states is translated as రాష్ట్రములు.Please change the template.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 08:16, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * For the hypernym parameter, make sure you provide the translations for "continent" and "day of the week". I wish you could do the same for other list templates. --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 06:49, 29 November 2012 (UTC)
 * (Pretty please ^_^?) --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 06:50, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Sanskrit word bhaya?
Does the word भय (bhaya) exist in Sanskrit? Are the words gati (गति?), chanda (चन्द or something else?), dosa (दोस?), and moga (मोग?) real Sanskrit words? (I got them from Aung San Suu Kyi's "Freedom from Fear" via Wikiquote.) --Lo Ximiendo (talk) 13:47, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
 * भय (bhaya) does exist in Sanskrit. I have added the information with reference in the concerned page. I would clarify about the others soon.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 11:04, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Synonyms
Hi there. This isn't really that big of a deal, but if you could, could you include transliterations of the Telugu words that you add as synonyms, derived terms, etc. to entries? That way, it would help people out more :) Thanks, Razorflame 04:30, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much. I would do that from now.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 04:37, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Not a problem :) Razor<b style="color:#006">fl</b><b style="color:#003">am</b><b style="color:#000">e</b> 21:43, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Could you take a look at my last few contributions and start doing this for the words you add/derived terms/related terms/synonyms please? It would be of much help. Thanks, <b style="color:#00C">Raz</b><b style="color:#009">or</b><b style="color:#006">fl</b><b style="color:#003">am</b><b style="color:#000">e</b> 03:37, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for helping in the expansion of Telugu language words. Your last contributions are fine. Please continue it. I would discuss with you in case of any differences.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:46, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I don't think you understand. I'm asking you if you could start doing what I was doing in those last few contributions. <b style="color:#00C">Raz</b><b style="color:#009">or</b><b style="color:#006">fl</b><b style="color:#003">am</b><b style="color:#000">e</b> 20:05, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I understood your point. You wanted me to follow the same system. See this word అరటి. Thank you.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 01:12, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much :) It is very appreciated :)  And yes, I will be adding Telugu words once I get the transliteration system down. <b style="color:#00C">Raz</b><b style="color:#009">or</b><b style="color:#006">fl</b><b style="color:#003">am</b><b style="color:#000">e</b> 04:59, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Fine. I will follow the same system. Anyhow, where will be adding these Telugu words. Many I know where you will add and what is its importance.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:41, 27 July 2013 (UTC)

Transliteration
Since you're a native speaker of Telugu, I am assuming you know how to transliterate terms you add to the English Wiktionary, right? Could you start doing this for any entries you make? That would be great :) Thanks, <b style="color:#00C">Raz</b><b style="color:#009">or</b><b style="color:#006">fl</b><b style="color:#003">am</b><b style="color:#000">e</b> 03:09, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * O.K. I will try to do it. Thanks.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 03:11, 31 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Is our WT:TE TR complete and correct from your point of view? You can copy-paste symbols from there.
 * In Mozilla Firefox, I use "character palette" plug-in, which lets you add special symbols without having to open more tabs. You need to create/edit your own palettes. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:16, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I have not used the "character palette" plug-in. Can you let me know how to use it.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 03:33, 31 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Do you use Mozilla Firefox!? If yes, then go to . Click on the latest version of the plug-in and select to open the *.xpi file with "Mozilla Firefox". Install the plug-in, restart the browser.
 * In the View\Toolbars menu "Character Palette Toolbar" must be checked. You will see then a new panel in your Firefox browser. Click on the "Character Palette", select Preferences, choose any existing list of characters or add a new one. You will need to copy all your favourite symbols there. If they don't fit on one line, make a new palette. There is an issue with some diacritic symbols, though. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:45, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Can I add all my favourite symbols in one pallette.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 04:13, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * It depends how many of them there are. An example of a long palette is "ёъɛŽžČčŠšʹʺÁáÉéÍíÓóÚúÝýɛ́āēīōūǎṯḥḏṣḍṭẓʿġʾâğäöüçşïıñôţḑŗŕǎ̀ʻøјˈ" but I have to make the window wider to see the end of it. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:19, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I will make one pallette for consonants and vowels. Is it possible for adding transliteration to Telugu words. How to add them easily to the Wiktionary.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 04:31, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * If you mean the palette, then you just click on a symbol, that will it to the clipboard, then you just paste it where you need it.
 * I have added the consonants and vowels to my preferences in one line. When I am clicking on a symbol; where does that clipboard comes. How to add one symbol after another.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:11, 31 July 2013 (UTC)


 * When you click on a symbol with a mouse (that symbol looks pressed on the palette) then it is in the clipboard, that means you can paste it (e.g. press Ctrl + V in Windows). Clicking on the symbol again will remove it from the clipboard (nothing to paste) or if you copy something else manually (using Ctrl + C). You can only copy/paste one symbol at a time. This tool is for symbols, which are not on the keyboard, e.g. ṣ, ṅ, ñ, etc. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:26, 31 July 2013 (UTC)


 * There is no easy way but you can paste a Telugu into Google translate, e.g. English-Korean, copy the automatic transliteration and fix any errors that Google has done. E.g. see అనాది in Google translate. This trick is not official but you can use it to save you some time.
 * If you knew some Lua programming you might want create a transliteration module, like Module:ru-translit or Module:si-translit. It's not easy though but you may get some help from experienced programmers (not me). --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 04:48, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * I am very thankful for you in guiding me to use the transliteration into Telugu words. Earler I have taken the help of Stephen Brown, for which I am indebted to him.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 05:30, 31 July 2013 (UTC)


 * You're welcome but I don't know Telugu. As a native speaker, you can make some difference when you have a good setup, know your tools and the rules here. Good luck. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 05:47, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the advise. I am a Medical doctor; Pathologist by profession. With interest in Telugu language, I am using this Wiki platform to introduce my mother tongue to other people of different languages. I would like to take your help in adding IPA to all Telugu words I am adding here. Thank you once again.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 07:24, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

Sanskrit
The Sanskrit entries you are copying from Monier-Williams (like here) are incorrectly formatted for Wiktionary purposes. Please see the discussion here and talk to Ivan to learn creating Sanskrit entries. --Vahag (talk) 10:32, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Well I think that we should have Sanskrit roots, like all the Sanskrit dictionaries do, but not with all those meanings of corresponding verbs, just the basic one. e.g. "to stand" for √sthā. They could have the lemma for for the verb (tíṣṭhati) as well as other derived nouns, adjectives etc. listed in the ====Derived terms==== section. I'm not sure about etymologies though - roots are kind of artificial construct, they are not directly inherited from Proto-Indo-Iranian or Proto-Indo-European - verbs, nouns etc. are. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 05:32, 12 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Instead of "from" Proto-Indo-Iranian or Proto-Indo-European in the etymologies, I think it would be a good idea to put "cognate with" or "compare". That way they are not inheritied forms, but the etymology still shows the relationship. —Stephen (Talk) 07:38, 12 August 2013 (UTC)

group= parameter in tables
Hi, thank you for translating the tables into Telugu! Just one thing:


 * In Template:table:suits/te, group= should be "suits" in Telugu.
 * In Template:table:playing cards/te, group= should be "playing cards" in Telugu.

Compare Template:table:chess pieces/te and Template:table:colors/te, where group= parameter is being used correctly. It generates the translated title of the table above. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 11:45, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you for working on the Template tables in English wiktionary. They are informative and also attractive. I have changed the Template:table:playing cards/te.--Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 11:53, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Glad you liked them. :) Another thing: Please link to the singular, while displaying the plural.
 * For example, you might use this code:
 * The plural should be displayed, since it makes sense as the title of the table. But when you click on the link, it goes to the entry for the singular form, (పేకముక్క) where all the good stuff is located. When you create a link to the entry for the plural form (పేకముక్కలు), it'd basically just contain "the plural of X", which is less interesting/informative. This is the format that all tables use. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 11:57, 10 October 2015 (UTC)

Special thanks!
I've seen you a lot in recent changes. I wanted to thank you for all of your contributions with the Telugu language here!

Telugu proverbs
Hi there. I don't think that the translations of these should be a single term (e.g. "like a donkey carrying sandal powder") but should be linked as individual words (because the translation will not exist as such in English). Also "sandal" should be "sandalwood". SemperBlotto (talk) 06:24, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your advise. I am taking the translations directly from the reference quoted (without changing). Can you give some example of how to link the translations to each of the English word. Thank you.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 06:28, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Put every individual English word in double square brackets separately. - Madhav P. (talk) 17:18, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

Telugu plural forms
Hello. I am working about common Telugu plural rules in Module:te-headword. Could you tell me if there are more common rules to apply to noun, for new usage of Template:te-noun? For special cases, they will not be put there. --Octahedron80 (talk) 07:46, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for the help in creating the plural forms of Telugu nouns. Basically I am not a linguist and not familiar with the Telugu grammatical rules. Few straight forward things we can begin with. The nouns ending with Rhymes:Telugu/ప్ప, we can add to covert them to plurals.Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 15:07, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
 * There are some common nouns ending with ex: ; the pleural form should end with  i.e. . Can you put this rule in the Module:te-headword. Thank you for the interest in the Telugu language entries.--Rajasekhar1961 (talk) 12:19, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I cannot put the condition because it will conflict the existing rule -Du,-lu,-ru > -LLu. You have to override it by putting కాళ్లు in the template. --Octahedron80 (talk) 07:18, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Definition lines are only for separate meanings of the word, as you'd find in a translation dictionary. So "(lit.) receptacle of undigested food" is not a separate sense: it is the same thing as "stomach". Equinox ◑ 11:25, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

And another thing: couldn't the term *సమాజవాదము be used to mean socialism? --Apisite (talk) 05:29, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

కలిక
Borrowed from Sanskrit कलिका (kalikā)? Or at least cognate? I took the liberty of adding the etymology. In case of an error please kindly advice.Thanks. Flāvidus (talk) 12:10, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
