bridegroomlike

I have never heard this word before and a Google Books search yielded plenty for "bridegroom, like" or "bridegroom like" but noting for "bridegroomlike". Purplebackpack89 12:30, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

• Purple, in RFV'ing this, you are clearly harassing Equinox (talk • contribs), the entry creator... Denazz (talk) 11:56, 31 May 2024 (UTC)
• I think these kinds of entries are largely pointless. The suffix "-like", whether hyphenated or not, may be added to almost literally ANY noun, with entirely predictable meaning. To me, the presence or absence of a hyphen makes no difference to the fact that these compounds are limitless SoP. Likewise, citability is irrelevant in my opinion, unless it is for its own sake, since ANY "-like" word can be coined at will, even if it hasn't been so far. Mihia (talk) 00:14, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

  @Mihia That isn't really a debate to have in this thread, and we've been over it lots of times before anyway. Theknightwho (talk) 00:17, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
