The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
Rfv-sense:
- Used as a response to a situation in which somebody comments on or accuses someone else of a fault which the accuser shares
I gathered four cites in the sense "Something is endemic, and not the result of outside influence or interference" and one in another sense I didn't get. (see Citations page) In the course of gathering those, I did not see any for the hypocrisy definition that User:175.35.206.245 replaced it with.--Simplificationalizer (talk) 00:48, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
- The 2015 cite you "didn't get" seems to be referring to a thought (the call) originating in one's own mind (the house) and not being heard elsewhere. Equinox ◑ 07:42, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
RFV Failed. Would be nice if someone could write up a better etymology Ioaxxere (talk) 07:04, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
