Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Language adjectives

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Don't delete this! I can never remember any language adjectives other than francophone and anglophone, and I use these adjectives surprisingly often, and there is no other way of finding them out - unless there's a backward dictionary out there somewhere.

That's what the wiktionaries are for...

Consider using "X speaking", where X is a language. It's not for nothing that you only can remember Anglophone and Francophone — it's not a productive derivational process at all. — mark ✎ 22:25, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

I quite agree, "<language>-speaking" is quite sufficient in English. --kudz75 04:04, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
