Category:English terms with uncommon senses

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

English terms with individual senses that are in general use but not common.

To categorize into this category, use {{lb|en|uncommon}} (template lb, not tlb), which should typically be placed next to the individual sense.

If the term itself, in all its senses, is uncommon, it should be placed in [[Category:English uncommon terms]] instead, using {{tlb|en|uncommon}} (template tlb instead of lb), which should typically be placed next to the headword. If the term is merely a variant (alternative form) of a term in general use, it should be categorized in [[Category:English uncommon forms]] (using {{uncommon form of|en|...}} or {{uncommon spelling of|en|...}}).

Uncommon senses should be distinguished from rare senses, which are infrequent enough that they are sometimes not recognized by native speakers.

The following label generates this category: uncommonedit. To generate this category using this label, use {{lb|en|label}}.
