Interesting. The Wiktionary Word of the Day today (not a word, but still) is, "At sixes and sevens": en.wiktionary.org/wiki/at_sixes_and… Which I hadn't heard in a while. But I wonder if that's where 67 comes from? 🤔 #Etymology #englishlanguage

this Hebrew entry on Hebrew Wiktionary has 2 bible quotes and one from a Hamas propaganda song lmao
the entry is the verb זעזע zi'zéa meaning to shake (violently).
quotes (bad translation to english, for the original see the links below):
1.
Will not your enemies rise up suddenly, and your enemies wither; and you will be a messenger to him. (Habakkuk 2:7)
2.
Stones that have been shaken by the plow, or that have been covered and discovered, if there are two loads of them, then they will be taken. (Mishnah, Tractate Seven – Chapter 3, Mishnah 7)
3.
Attack, carry out attacks, shake Israel's security (Hamas song)

from Bulgarian Wiktionary
Bulgarian Wiktionary entry for тресна.

definition translated to english: scared :) surprised :) in non-douomeric:) sound-suppression verb. From the sound of a "trice", which is heard when a broken or falling object. In my opinion, his correct spelling is: he crashed, not shuddered! Example: A loud bang is heard!! ..., no, a strong track is heard! ?! The grassy-damaged. I'll fuck you - I'll hit you. According to the spelling dictionary, it is right to write "sorry"! BUT, I personally do not agree! They push the shopping dialect! !! :)

in bulgarian: изплашена :) учудена :) в недуомение:) звукоподражателен глагол. От звука "тряс", който се чува при счупване или падане на предмет. Според мен правилното му изписване е: трясна, а не тресна! Пример: Чу се силен трясък!!!..., а не, Чу се силен тресък!!? Трясната- ударена. Ще те трясна- ще те ударя. Според правописния речник правилно е да се пише " тресна"! НО, аз лично не съм съгласен! Пробутват шопския диалект!!!:)
