Latest revision as of 20:21, 4 August 2026

Worked examples for Template:Translations. Every word below is a real Dictionary entry, so each link should render blue; reconstructed languages are starred by the registry, not by hand. The only deliberate exception is the unrecognized code in the last case.

Full spread: several families, attested and reconstructed

Translations — water

Herta-Olaic

Proto-Herta-Olaic: *βiot
Ancient Hertic: βοτταν

Njeshan

Proto-Njeshan: *hodzɛ

Andusian

Proto-Andusian: *meto
Proto-Unterian: *meto

Synonyms within one language

A value may hold several words, separated by commas:

Translations — you

Herta-Olaic

Proto-Herta-Olaic: *ixaβ, *nwijɔ
Ancient Hertic: ιαπα, νου

Andusian

Proto-Andusian: *gum, *luq

Homonym handling: one box per sense

Two senses of the same English headword each get their own box. A word that carries both senses appears in both:

Translations — head, the top of a person

Herta-Olaic

Proto-Herta-Olaic: *əɲib͡βeə
Ancient Hertic: μενηβι

Njeshan

Proto-Njeshan: *kokint

Andusian

Proto-Andusian: *ɣa

Translations — head, the front or chief of something

Herta-Olaic

Proto-Herta-Olaic: *əɲib͡βeə

Error rendering

Missing gloss, and a code the registry does not know:

Translations — no gloss given

Njeshan

Proto-Njeshan: *gurə

unrecognized code YQQ-ZZ: unresolvable
