Topic redirection in ja.wikipedia.org‽
[edit]I couldn’t find the Japanese-language talk page.
Why does the ja.wikipedia page for “mnemonic” (ニモニック) redirect to “Assembly language” (アセンブリ言語)? Is this an April Fools joke?
I’m still new to learn the language, so imaging the surprise when a search for mnemonics gives me assembly language, of all things. I’m not capable of reading through that just yet, so could someone please explain in English? I couldn’t find the Japanese-language “Talk:” page for that, if it even exists.
Update: please explain in a way that I can understand. I don’t know assembly in English, let alone in Japanese. I don’t even know Java. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 32.212.121.214 (talk) 05:34, 27 January 2019 (UTC)
- What the Japanese Wikipedia does is not something English Wikipedia is concerned with, but are you sure it is a redirect and not a link? It would make sense to find links since mnemonics are used in assembler. Meters (talk) 09:15, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
Incorrect example: Masculine countries in French
[edit]The following sentence is wrong:
- Masculine countries in French (le): "Neither can a breeze make a sane Japanese chilly in the USA." (les) Netherlands (Pays-Bas), Canada, Brazil (Brésil), Mexico (Mexique), Senegal, Japan (Japon), Chile (Chili), & (les) USA (États-Unis d'Amérique).
There are 92 countries with masculine names in French, not just eight (see for example, [1] (in French)), therefore this sentence should either be deleted or the mnemonic corrected if it refers to something else. Sophos II (talk) 21:01, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
Original Research & Unreferenced Statements (July 2023)
[edit]The whole "Types" section and several other parts of this article contain unreferenced statements and apparent OR. Several unsourced examples in the lists section. 2.31.178.128 (talk) 10:20, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
Please write more understandably.
[edit]"The information is constructed into a picture – e.g. the German weak declension can be remembered as five '-e's', looking rather like the state of Oklahoma in America, in a sea of '-en's'." I'm a college graduate from an American university fluent in German, and I do not understand what this sentence is saying. Please fix it. 136.36.180.215 (talk) 05:54, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
- That was added by by an IP about 10 years ago and has not been touched since. I agree that it is a terrible example. It appears to be a very specific foreign example. Removed. Meters (talk) 06:18, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
