Latin. Tagged by Jumpirip on 31 October 2019, not listed:
“See the removal of (Classical Latin) IPA(key): /kʰanɡ.ba.i.saˈnen.sis/, [kʰäŋɡbäɪs̠äˈnẽːs̠ɪs̠]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /kanɡ.ba.i.saˈnen.sis/, [käŋɡbäis̬äˈnɛnsis] and the comment: "The pronunciation seems dubious and unnecessary. How to know that "ch" is /kʰ/ rather than /tʂʰ/ or /tʃʰ/ here, that "ng" is /ng/ rather than /ŋ/? Why would the ai be in hiatus, rather than a diphthong as in Chinese "Changbai"?". Hypothesis: This word isn't Latin at all.” J3133 (talk) 06:51, 27 October 2020 (UTC)
- It looks like this is Taxonomic Latin. It is attested as such. The question is whether to have the header "Latin" or "Translingual". As the inflected forms appear unattested, I think they should be removed regardless. I would reheader it "Translingual" and pass it as such, but some people have argued for such things to be kept as Latin. - -sche (discuss) 02:44, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
- Converted to Translingual. (As a Translingual taxonomic name element, it's attested. In Latin, it's not.) - -sche (discuss) 01:10, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
