So help me God, here goes my first attempt at managing a wikiglossary. This is a multilingual glossary dealing with terminology used to describe pain. This document has been saved as a Microsoft Excel 97/98 workbook. (I picked an 'older' version hoping people encounter fewer hassles with it.) Kindly save your submissions using this same Excel version. 3... 2....1... lift-off!
I added the German translations Italian and French columns the main word "pain" Questions: does "increase" mean "ease" for you? what is "blinding pain"?
Laura: I realize that you said you didn't want the format changed, but I altered the widths of columns to make it more reader-friendly. Now, we are able to view the entire description. When you asked that we save our submission in the same format, I take it that you mean using the same version of Excel. I also deleted the extraneous sheets, and gave a name to the one with entries. I hope this is alright.
Thanks for those! 1. I don't understand your question...can you please point me to the term or description you are referring to? 2. I will modify the current "blinding pain" description. Stay tuned. Thanks, LN
No... "increasing pain" (entries #25 & 26) is a type of pain whose severity increases/augments/grows. "easing one's pain" means doing something to diminish/lessen/decrease the pain. It's not the same thing at all. Does that help? LN
Oops, I'm so sorry. I was thinking of "decreasing". But wouldn't that a good word, too? "easing one's pain"? Let me add it.
Agnès, je propose les changements suivants dans la colonne réservée au français : douleur aigue => douleur aiguë douleur thoraxique => douleur thoracique la douleur grandit => douleur croissante travail => douleur de l'accouchement
