there is no pronunciation

@Equinox Thanks for the ambitransitive entry, and the quote, which certainly is unambiguous, but aren't some folks round here fussy about multiple examples? It rankles. That one not only is rare, but is so recent that it might well be a simply illiterate neologism; for one thing it would be at least as effective if the two "him"s were omitted, and it then would be in line with the longer established usages.

Use RFV then. Equinox 14:38, 18 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Equinox Sounds good, but this is the first I have heard about radial force variation. Could you please point me at where to see more, and what it will do for Wkt, and for me? So far I have been using google and ngram; it would seem that I am missing something. Thanks JonRichfield (talk) 15:08, 18 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
rfv means {{rfv}}, or request for verification. Just add {{rfv|xx|optional reason here}} to an entry. xx refers to the language code, such as en for English. Then go to Wiktionary:Requests for verification and start a new discussion about the entry that needs verification. —Stephen (Talk) 10:49, 19 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
