What is an 'ex-ray'? I have never, ever seen it called anything but 'x-ray' or 'X-ray'. Wakakakah 04:07, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Latin - reorganization for two distinct "Definition 1" and "Definition 2" sections[edit]

See before with two definitions of Latin word headed by large "Etymology 1", "Etymology 2" headings:

An interesting idea, but inconsistent with how we do this everywhere else. There are lots of cases elsewhere that have multiple definitions for different parts of speech grouped under each etymology. This is one of the few where there's only one definition per etymology. Also, remember that these two are different in their etymology, even if we don't know the details Chuck Entz (talk) 14:32, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
