pronunciation[edit]

What region uses the pronunciation given in the entry of the English word "men" (/mɛn/), and what region uses /mɪn/? - -sche (discuss) 01:57, 18 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Most of the U.S. pronounces /mɛn/, but in the South (pin-pen merger) we say /mɪn/. —Stephen (Talk) 15:28, 18 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

menstruation[edit]

Hi, everyone.

I don't normally hang out on Wiktionary so I'll just mention this here. Thai prostitutes use the word "men" to mean "menstruation", as in "I am menstruating". I think this should go in. - Richardcavell 14:05, 13 September 2011 (UTC) PS I have never paid for sex.Reply

Plausible. Any documentation for this? DCDuring TALK 23:17, 20 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Team[edit]

While the "normal" meanings are mentioned here, the meaning "team" is missing. At www.leo.org (very wellknown German/European multi-language dictionary) its just the other way round...--Mideal (talk) 13:06, 8 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Where is men used to mean team? As opposed to meaning 'more than one man'. Mglovesfun (talk) 13:12, 8 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
