RFV[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process.

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.


Is this really used in English, as English? Or is usage restricted to speakers familiar with Japanese, thus suggesting a kind of community-specific code switching rather than actual borrowing? -- Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 16:56, 18 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

The first 40 GB hits are either Japanese or code-switching. --BenjaminBarrett12 (talk) 22:23, 18 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
Brilliant, thank you Benjamin. I'll let this sit for a while yet to avoid being hasty, but the EN entry looks like it's on the way to the round file. -- Eiríkr ÚtlendiTala við mig 22:25, 18 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
Were tabemonos or tabemonoes attested, there would be a case for this being English, but those words get one hit each. Deleted. - -sche (discuss) 21:39, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
