This definition is horrible and needs to be changed... The definition is absolutely ridiculous...Stevenmitchell (talk) 00:44, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seems okay, similar to professional dictionaries. Your suggestions? Equinox 00:46, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Editing blocked[edit]

Adding translations isn't possible at the moment.

Is this because the entry is protected, or is there another reason? --93.193.5.224 18:34, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I protected it because some idiot was adding the same lame joke definition over and over again. It's been a couple of months, so I've removed the protection in hopes they've found something better to do with their time. Chuck Entz (talk) 19:37, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

She pronounces "ecregious". --92.74.155.122 17:17, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like /g/ to me. Equinox 17:25, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What meaning of -i- is used in its -ious ? (Incidentally, the meaning shown in -y, namely alternative form of -y (when followed by another suffix), does not appear here -i-). --Backinstadiums (talk) 22:16, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

my guess is that there's no -i- ... its just part of the root. the original Latin word was grex, genitive gregis. Soap 15:59, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
