Balikin

[edit]

@Mar vin kaiser @Mlgc1998 @TagaSanPedroAko Do you ever use balikin or at least heard of this? 𝄽 ysrael214 (talk) 08:37, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Never so. TagaSanPedroAko (talk) 08:37, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Mar vin kaiser Apparently, you added balikin in the derived terms of balik and the IP user is trying to add definitions to each derived term without consulting a dictionary or thinking if the term is actually in use. But is it though? 𝄽 ysrael214 (talk) 14:11, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ysrael214 hmmmm feels strange on its own. maybe it should be "pabalikin" or "ibalik". The conjugations of balikin are familiar tho, but so are the conjugations of "ibalik". "Balikin" in itself maybe feels probably uncommon or a bit strange, but maybe that's a thing for infinitives, sometimes not the most used in favor of its conjugations due to idk maybe lack of use cases. only quote of "balikin" I see on Google Books is "pabalik-balikin". maybe it should be "ibalik" or "pabalikin". Contemplative "babalikin" also feels awkward.Mlgc1998 (talk) 15:05, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ysrael214: Definition is to turn something over, basically a synonym of "baligtarin". --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 01:08, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ysrael214: I found the word "babalikin" in the novel Nena at Neneng (1905) in this quote, "At ako pa ang babalikin mong baka may iba nang loob! Mainam ka ring maghugas ng kamay. Diyata't mag-aagam-agam ka'y ikaw ang natapatan ko?" Though I'm not sure it means to "turn over". --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 01:11, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Mar vin kaiser What dictionary is this from, can I see? 𝄽 ysrael214 (talk) 02:26, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Ysrael214: Leo English's dictionary, Vicassan's dictionary, and Panganiban's dictionary. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 03:18, 26 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
