тыкать "to thou"

[edit]

@Atitarev Hi. Are you sure Etymology 2 can be 6a? Zaliznyak says it's only 1a. Benwing2 (talk) 04:02, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Benwing2: 6a for etymology #2 is unusual but it happens, especially in the sense "thouing" is perceived as "poking" (since it may be considered rude in some situations).
If someone is offended by "thouing", they can say "Ты меня не тычь!", which is non-standard and uses "ты".
I am happy to change to 1a only, since dictionaries only use 1a for etymology #2. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 04:43, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps тычь and ты́чьте are a special, colloquial case for etymology #2. Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 04:46, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Benwing2: Hmm, Ushakov says both 1a and 6a are used. https://dic.academic.ru/dic.nsf/ushakov/1060978

So, maybe leave as is? Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 04:52, 16 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
