قالب:Etymology/شرح

Takes groups of three parameters (triplets) that indicate a part of an etymology and produces formatted output. It is highly recommended that in-line etymologies be placed within parentheses, i.e. ({{etymology}}).

Usage

{{etymology|language1|orthography1|meaning1
|language2|orthography2|meaning2
|language3|orthography3|meaning3
... }}

Between one and six triplets can be specified, each of which can have the following parameters (which can be left blank or, at the end of the list, omitted entirely):

• language: The أيزو 639 code for the language. This might be omitted if the language is obvious (e.g. the same as the language of the previous part, or English).
• orthography: How the word or words are written in the original language. May include transliterations (preferably within parentheses) if the original language uses a non-Latin alphabet.
• meaning: Concise English meaning of the word. This could be a link if appropriate.

Note: This template may also be coded using the shortened form, {{Etymology}}.
