Rfv-sense. French, to kill someone. I thought that was buter, is this a common misspelling of it? Mglovesfun (talk) 15:26, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

No, I don't think so. The second sense should be deleted too (it's also buter). But the first sense is OK. Lmaltier 18:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

RFV failed, sense removed. Also, per Lmaltier, I removed the second sense. —RuakhTALK 19:33, 1 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Margarine[edit]

In my experience, sometimes people say "butter" when they actually mean "margarine". This seems to be sense (3), but the way it is written now, it suggests it only means phrases which include the word "butter" plus some other noun/adjective, which doesn't quite fit what I have in mind here. Should a fourth sense be added, or the third reworded to make it clearer? 101.164.227.31 10:34, 27 April 2014 (UTC)Reply

Butter- verb, to land an aircraft softly[edit]

Is this allowed on Wiktionary? It probably was coined by Swiss001 (a YouTube guy). Comment by TenGolf as 68.185.104.6 16:10, 28 September 2023 (UTC)Reply
