Susan asks…

How do you merge a wikipedia article into a wiktionary article?

Wize Guy answers:

There’s no obvious “merge” feature, however, since both sites are open for anyone to edit, you could simply copy and paste from one to the other.

Ken asks…

Does the word ‘sustainable’ cover recycling too?

Wikipedia’s definition for sustainability (as far as ecology is concerned) is this:

(ecology) a means of configuring civilization and human activity so that society, its members and its economies are able to meet their needs and express their greatest potential in the present, while preserving biodiversity and natural ecosystems, planning and acting for the ability to maintain these ideals in the very long term

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/sustainability

It seems to be a very broad term… Does it also cover recycling?

Wize Guy answers:

recycling itself is an act of sustainability by not completely discarding a resource. To sustain something is to keep it up, or make it last, so recycling is just that. When you hear people say ‘sustainable renewable resources or sustainable energy’ there referring to, most likely, a -renewable- easily attained form of energy like, solar energy, or natural gas…

hope that helped I would visit other sites beyond wikipedia…not a bad site but anybody can add anything to any of their definitions…

John asks…

How does one pronounce the Latin word, “Letum”?

Is it like, “Let-um”, or “Leet-um” or “Let-oom” or something?

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/letum

Thanks for any help ^^

Wize Guy answers:

The e is long, so it’s “LAYtoom,” with the oo pronounced as it is in “foot,” not as in “boot.”

Edit: Sorry to diagree with Mikhail, but it’s always been my understanding that the LONG u in Latin is pronounced like the oo in “boot” and the short one (which this word has) like the oo in “foot”–which rhymes with “put.”

Daniel asks…

What does the word “Antonyms” mean?

I was looking up ‘Timid’ in Wiktionary, and one of the contents is “Antonyms” and it has “daredevil, dauntless, bellicose, wreckless, aggressive” underneath it. Any help? Thanks ;D

Wize Guy answers:

Antonym is a word with the opposite meaning of the one
you’re looking for.

The opposite of an antonym is a synonym, a word of
a similar meaning.

Gas prices have skyrocketed these past few years, and it seems like it will continue to climb. Just this winter alone, there is an increase expected of 27%, and if you use natural gas, you can expect a 41% increase. Because of this, many homeowners are looking for alternative ways to heat their home without depending on expensive gas and oil.

The best option would be used pellet stoves. These are actually a very sophisticated and versatile way to heat your home. These are very similar to the traditional fireplace inserts or wood stoves, in the way they work and providing a nice flame.

If you choose discounted pellet stoves that are freestanding or fireplace inserts, they will produce a small fire, however, you can find some with various flame patterns, giving the look of a real fire. To give it a look of a real fireplace, you can add ceramic logs like the ones you would have in a gas fireplace, this helps to spread out the flames.

Because the freestanding and the insert pellet stoves have moving parts and motors, they will more than likely need some maintenance in the future. As you look for discounted pellet stoves, choose a model that will allow you to access the parts easily just in case they need any repairs and making it easy for you to maintain it.

When it comes to the the freestanding models and the fireplace insert pellet stoves, you have a couple of options. You can go with a bottom fed or a top fed stove. If you choose a top feeder, there will be a hopper that delivers the pellets to the flame. If you do choose a top fed discounted pellet stove, you should use a low-ash, high grade pellets. This will not impede any moving parts with “clinkers”. If you decide on a bottom fed model, you don’t need the high-grade pellets because the ask is pushed out of the way into an ash pan. Also, look for a stove that has a big ash pan which is easy to replace or remove.

These discounted pellet stoves do require some electricity. You will need to have a 110-volt outlet to plug it into, or you can go with a gas-power generator model just in case your electricity ever goes out, letting you keep your heat while the power is out.
