Wiktionary talk:About Finnish

Anagrams
What about diacritics? Mglovesfun (talk) 13:52, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmm, it seems like letters with diacritics in Finnish should not be interchangeable with letters that do not have them, since Ä, Ö, and Å are unique letters. I have a prejudice against anagrams in Wiktionary entries though. They just bug me, I can't explain it. Maybe I need an option in special preferences to hide them. ~ heyzeuss 14:06, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Heyzeuss is right. Letters with diacritics are not interchangeable with letters that don't have them. --Hekaheka 07:53, 22 December 2010 (UTC)

Inclusion of Forms
The issue of whether or not to include forms of Finnish words was raised on User talk:81.19.115.130. - -sche (discuss) 08:21, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The subject was previously discussed in the Beer Parlour. - -sche (discuss) 08:32, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Stem forms in derivational etymologies
I am still cleaning these up little by little. Does anyone object to the following:?
 * 1) don't add superfluous hyphens: e.g.  can be given simply as  +, no need to amend this to  +.
 * 2) don't shorten suffixes or base words when predictable vowel contraction occurs, e.g.  can be given as  +, instead of shortening the first to  or (more importantly) the second to.
 * 3) regular stem forms do not need to be given, e.g.  can be lso given as simply  +  instead of being amended to  +.

I imagine the first will be uncontroversial, the second probably mostly so, not sure about the third.

Also, if a stem form not identical to the lemma is given, I would recommend noting what the basic word actually is, instead of merely linking to it, so something like "from, the weak grade stem of + . (Of course, all of these examples should also use  in actual use.) --Tropylium (talk) 14:06, 13 April 2018 (UTC)
