<ol><li> A political philosophy opposed to the separation of a religious group ("church") and a government ("state"), especially the belief held by those in 19th century England opposed to separating the Anglican church from the civil government (but chiefly in use as an example of a long word) or to refer to separation of church and state.{{defdate|from 20th c.}}</li>

<ul><li> Jed Rubenfeld, who actually may not have been recycling a <em>Boerne</em> Court- rejected argument into a law review article,<sup>450</sup> reasoned that RFRA indeed lacked constitutionality, but because of First Amendment antidisestablishmentarianism, and not the reasons offered by the Court.<sup>451</sup></li>

<h3>Noun</h3>
{en-noun}
<ol><li> {linguistics} A variety of a language (specifically, often a spoken variety) that is characteristic of a particular area, community or group, often with relatively minor differences in vocabulary, style, spelling and pronunciation.</li>
<ul><li> <em>A language is a <b>dialect</b> with an army and a navy.</em></li>
</ul>
<li> A dialect of a language perceived as substandard and wrong.</li>
<ul><li> Roger W. Shuy, <em>Discovering American dialects</em>, National Council of Teachers of English, 1967, page 1:</li>
<ul><li> Many even deny it and say something like this: "No, we don't speak a <b>dialect</b> around here. <nowiki>[...]</nowiki></li>
</ul>
<li> <em>Linguistic perspectives on black English</em>, H. Carl, 1975, pg. 219:</li>
<ul><li> Well, those children don't speak <b>dialect</b>, not in this school. Maybe in the public schools, but not here.</li>
</ul>

<ul><li> <nowiki>[...]</nowiki> on the second day, Miss Anderson gave the school a lecture on why it was wrong to speak <b>dialect</b>. She had ended by saying "Respectable people don't speak <b>dialect</b>."</li>
</ul>
</ul>
</ol>

<h4>Usage notes</h4>

The first fascicle of the Oxford English Dictionary was published in 1884, and it was published in fascicles until completion in 1928. Oxford English Dictionary is a great source of word history.Some scanned fascicles of Oxford English Dictionary under the title <em>A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles</em> by James A. H. Murray can be found at archive.org, as seen in [http://www.archive.org/search.php?query=creator%3A%22James%20A.%20H.%20Murray%22 works by James A. H. Murray]. They have been scanned by a person whose [http://lists.canonical.org/pipermail/kragen-tol/2005-October/000794.html letter of intent] can be seen, as well as his [http://lists.canonical.org/pipermail/kragen-tol/2006-March/000816.html progress] as of March 16 2006. He is scanning those fascicles published in the US before 1923, maybe because in the UK the copyright is [http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=16644 extended to author's life + 70 years].

<ol><li> {{linguistics|idiomatic}} A word in a foreign language bearing a deceptive resemblance to a word in one's own language.</li>
</ol>

<h4>Usage notes</h4>
<ul><li> Examples:</li>
<ul><li> The French <em>nous demandons</em> means "<em>we ask</em>", but sounds like "<em>we demand</em>", which can turn negotiation into confrontation.</li>
<li> The Spanish word <em>embarazada</em> means "<em>pregnant</em>", not "<em>embarrassed</em>" &mdash; "<em>Estoy embarazada</em>" means "<em>I am pregnant</em>", not "<em>I am embarrassed</em>".</li>
<li> The German word <em>will</em> (want) is not a future tense marker &mdash; "<em>Ich will gehen</em>" means "<em>I want to go</em>", not "<em>I will go</em>".</li>
<ul><li> Same for Dutch and Afrikaans, "<em>Ik wil gaan</em>" and "<em>Ek wil gaan</em>" mean "<em>I want to go</em>".</li>
</ul>
<li> The Italian word <em>triviale</em> (vulgar) is written almost like <em>trivial</em>, but the two words share only a common Latin root (<em>trivium</em> in Latin means crossroad) and no longer any meaning; "<em>Questo è triviale</em>" means "<em>This is in bad taste</em>", not "<em>This is obvious</em>".</li>
<li> The Danish word <em>gift</em> does not mean gift as in present, but can mean a verb form of to marry; <em>Han er gift</em> means <em>He is married</em>. The word for gift is gave, which is close to the past tense of the verb giver. If <em>du gav en gave</em>, you gave a gift. Likewise, if <em>du gav en gift</em>, you actually gave poison.</li>

===FAQ===
Help:FAQ:
Q: I see a bunch of articles that have no language specified, but they are clearly written for English terms.  That makes sense.  Should I remove ==English== wherever I see it then?A: No.  It is very much a required heading.The ==English== header is not assumed.  It cannot be, since we aim to include "all words."  Also, it reminds people that they can enter other languages.
<ul><li>Some more reasons why "==English==" is required:</li>
<ol><li> Introduces newcomers to wiki* syntax</li>
<li> Indicates (by implication) to newcomers that a single entry can have more than one language</li>
<li> Indicates <em>which</em> parts are English</li>
<li> It reminds new contributors that they can enter words and definitions of other languages.</li>
<li> The absence of the English heading is an indication that the person entering it is new, and the article probably needs cleanup.</li>
</ol>
</ul>
<ul><ol><li> The presence of the English heading makes it readily apparent how another language definition can be added to a page.</li>
<li> The presence of the English heading makes parsing articles by external tools easier.  (The point of Wiktionary is to provide electronic access to everyone, everywhere, provided they extend the same courtesy to their derived works.  There is nothing to say that we should arbitrarily make it more difficult for programs to interpret.)</li>
<li>The presence of the English heading makes parsing articles by internal "bots" easier/possible.</li>

***floccinaucinihilipilification***
floccinaucinihilipilification:
{wikiquote}
<h3>Etymology</h3>
A jocular coinage, apparently by pupils at Eton, combining a number of roughly synonymous Latin stems.  {{etyl|la}} <em>flocci</em>, from <em>floccus</em>, a wisp or piece of wool + <em>nauci</em>, from <em>naucum</em>, a trifle + <em>nihili</em>, from the {{etyl|la}} pronoun, {{term|nihil|nothing|lang=la}} + <em>pili</em>, from <em>pilus</em>, a hair, something insignificant (all therefore having the sense of "pettiness" or "nothing") + -fication.  "Flocci non facio" was a Latin expression of indifference, literally "I do not make a straw of...".

***Friday***
Friday:

<h3>Etymology</h3>
{{etyl|ang}} {{term|frigedæg|frīġedæġ|lang=ang}}. Compound of frīġe and dæġ "day".Old Norse Frigg (genitive Friggjar), Old Saxon Fri, and Old English Frig are derived from Common Germanic Frijjō.[5] Frigg is cognate with Sanskrit prīyā́ which means "wife."[5] The root also appears in Old Saxon fri which means "beloved lady", in Swedish as fria ("to propose for marriage") and in Icelandic as frjá which means "to love."A calque of Latin <em>dies Veneris</em>, via an association of the goddess Frigg with the Roman goddess of love Venus.

<li> {{a|US}} {{IPA|/ˌfɑːls ˈfrɛnd/}}</li>
<li> {{audio|en-us-false friend.ogg|Audio (US)}}</li>
</ul>

<h3>Noun</h3>
{{en-noun|sg=false friend}}
<ol><li> {{linguistics|idiomatic}} A word in a foreign language bearing a deceptive resemblance to a word in one's own language.</li>
</ol>

<h4>Usage notes</h4>
<ul><li> Examples:</li>
<ul><li> The French <em>nous demandons</em> means "<em>we ask</em>", but sounds like "<em>we demand</em>", which can turn negotiation into confrontation.</li>
<li> The Spanish word <em>embarazada</em> means "<em>pregnant</em>", not "<em>embarrassed</em>" &mdash; "<em>Estoy embarazada</em>" means "<em>I am pregnant</em>", not "<em>I am embarrassed</em>".</li>
<li> The German word <em>will</em> (want) is not a future tense marker &mdash; "<em>Ich will gehen</em>" means "<em>I want to go</em>", not "<em>I will go</em>".</li>
<ul><li> Same for Dutch and Afrikaans, "<em>Ik wil gaan</em>" and "<em>Ek wil gaan</em>" mean "<em>I want to go</em>".</li>
</ul>
<li> The Italian word <em>triviale</em> (vulgar) is written almost like <em>trivial</em>, but the two words share only a common Latin root (<em>trivium</em> in Latin means crossroad) and no longer any meaning; "<em>Questo è triviale</em>" means "<em>This is in bad taste</em>", not "<em>This is obvious</em>".</li>
<li> The Danish word <em>gift</em> does not mean gift as in present, but can mean a verb form of to marry; <em>Han er gift</em> means <em>He is married</em>. The word for gift is gave, which is close to the past tense of the verb giver. If <em>du gav en gave</em>, you gave a gift. Likewise, if <em>du gav en gift</em>, you actually gave poison.</li>

===Help===
Help:FAQ:
Q: I see a bunch of articles that have no language specified, but they are clearly written for English terms.  That makes sense.  Should I remove ==English== wherever I see it then?A: No.  It is very much a required heading.The ==English== header is not assumed.  It cannot be, since we aim to include "all words."  Also, it reminds people that they can enter other languages.
<ul><li>Some more reasons why "==English==" is required:</li>
<ol><li> Introduces newcomers to wiki* syntax</li>
<li> Indicates (by implication) to newcomers that a single entry can have more than one language</li>
<li> Indicates <em>which</em> parts are English</li>
<li> It reminds new contributors that they can enter words and definitions of other languages.</li>
<li> The absence of the English heading is an indication that the person entering it is new, and the article probably needs cleanup.</li>
</ol>
</ul>
<ul><ol><li> The presence of the English heading makes it readily apparent how another language definition can be added to a page.</li>
<li> The presence of the English heading makes parsing articles by external tools easier.  (The point of Wiktionary is to provide electronic access to everyone, everywhere, provided they extend the same courtesy to their derived works.  There is nothing to say that we should arbitrarily make it more difficult for programs to interpret.)</li>
<li>The presence of the English heading makes parsing articles by internal "bots" easier/possible.</li>

<h3>Variations for languages other than English</h3>
Entries for terms in other languages should follow the standard format as closely as possible regardless of the language of the word. However, a translation into English should normally be given instead of a definition, including a gloss to indicate which meaning of the English translation is intended. Also, the translations section should be omitted.Some languages do have characteristics that require variation from the standard format.  For links to these variations see Wiktionary:Language considerations.

<h5>Usage notes</h5>
<ul><li> {{term|may|May}} is now a defective verb.  It has no infinitive, no past participle, and no future tense.  Forms of {{term|to be allowed to}} are used to replace these missing tenses.</li>
<li> The simple past (both indicative and subjunctive) of {{term|may}} is {{term|might}}</li>
<li> The present tense is negated as {{term|may}} {{term|not}}, which can be contracted to {{term|mayn't}}, although this is old-fashioned; the simple past is negated as {{term|might}} {{term|not}}, which can be contracted to {{term|mightn't}}.</li>
<li> {{term|may|May}} has archaic second-person singular present indicative forms {{term|mayest}} and {{term|mayst}}.</li>
<li> Usage of this word in the sense of {{term|possibly}} is considered incorrect by some speakers and writers, as it blurs the meaning of the word in the sense <em>have permission to</em>. These speakers and writers prefer to use the word {{term|might}} instead.</li>
<li> Wishes are often cast in the imperative rather than the subjunctive mood, not using the word {{term|may|may}}, as in <em>Have a great day!</em> rather than <em>May you have a great day</em>.</li>
</ul>

<h5>Synonyms</h5>

<ul><li> <em>Extra arguments can also be used to build semantic representations. Now, we did not say anything about what the words in our little DCG mean. In fact, nowadays a lot is known about the semantics of natural languages, and it is surprisingly easy to build semantic representations which partially capture the meaning of sentences or even entire discourses. Such representations are usually expressions of some formal language (for example first-order logic, discourse representation structures, or a database query language) and they are usually built up compositionally. That is, the meaning of each word is expressed in the formal language; this meaning is given as an extra argument in the DCG entries for the individual words. Then, for each rule in the grammar, an extra argument shows how to combine the meaning of the two subcomponents. For example, to the rule s  -->  np,  vp we would add an extra argument stating how to combine the np meaning and the vp meaning to form the s meaning. Although somewhat more complex, the semantic construction process is quite like the way we built up the parse tree for the sentence from the parse tree of its subparts.<sup>1</sup></em></li>

<h3>Variations for languages other than English</h3>
Entries for terms in other languages should follow the standard format as closely as possible regardless of the language of the word. However, a translation into English should normally be given instead of a definition, including a gloss to indicate which meaning of the English translation is intended. Also, the translations section should be omitted.Some languages do have characteristics that require variation from the standard format.  For links to these variations see Wiktionary:Language considerations.
