RFV discussion: July–August 2015[edit]

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 of several senses. The adjective I cannot find at all; it was listed as gradable both with -er and the more (I have suppressed that), but neither "graither", "graithest", "more graith" nor "most graith", nor "(is|are|was|were) graith", gets any relevant hits. The second verb sense I can't find evidence of, either. (NB there is an Oriental Miscellany citation on Google Books "now returned here from Bukhir in good graith" which, however, is a scanno for "good health"!) - -sche (discuss) 17:52, 5 July 2015 (UTC)Reply
