User talk:Ruakh/2006

Note: In assembling this archive, I've reunited some conversations that were previously spread across multiple discussion pages. Comments in green ( like this ) are comments brought here from other users' talk-pages. (My apologies if your link colors are such that this makes links hard to read.)

Hey there. Just thought I would drop by and say that you are doing pretty good work around here. Have you considered registering an account. It is free and we would love to have you. If you have any questions, just drop my by talk page. -- Psy guy 21:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the welcome! I've created an account now. - Ruakh, previously 129.22.21.59

Welcome
(I'm not sure how you made it this long without being welcomed, but here is one...) Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wiktionary. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
 * Wiktionary Tutorial
 * How to edit a page
 * How to start a page
 * Our format guidelines
 * Criteria for inclusion
 * Wiktionary Sandbox (a safe place for testing syntax)
 * What Wiktionary is not
 * FAQ

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wiktionarian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk (discussion) and vote pages using four tildes, like this: &#126;&#126;&#126;&#126;, which automatically produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the beer parlour or ask me on my Talk page. Again, welcome! &mdash;Dvortygirl 14:50, 17 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the welcome! I was starting to wonder if maybe Wiktionary wasn't as friendly as Wikipedia. :-) Ruakh 00:28, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * It's not that we're less friendly (to the contrary, I've met some of the friendliest people I know here, and it's a smaller, more intimate community). Because we're smaller, though, we're not quite as well "staffed" with folks welcoming newcomers, and it's a bit hit or miss.  Please don't take it personally. &mdash;Dvortygirl 03:06, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Don't worry, I really wasn't being serious. All's good. :-) Ruakh 03:22, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Hebrew help
Hello, could you check the Hebrew translation(s) for the word listen, and make sure they are listed in the correct section? Thanks, --EncycloPetey 02:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for adding the Hebrew, but did you notice that the translations are separated by sense? Did you intend to put both translations under the same meaning? --EncycloPetey 03:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I noticed. and  are almost completely synonymous; the second is a bit more formal, and has a slight connotation of listening to speech specifically rather than to sound generally, but the two are fairly interchangeable. Ruakh 17:48, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
