Judaism[edit]

"Plighted their troth" in Tolkien[edit]

In Lord of the Rings, the phrase above appears several times. There seems to be some colloquial meaning relating to a marriage contract; is there someone with enough of the etymology to add to this? Wellspring (talk) 02:56, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Political Attack[edit]

I just removed information from the Political Promise area that told only of an alleged promise that has not been broken. The promise in question was whether a political candidate up for re-election had broken a promise. Since it was the only promise specifically stated on the page I felt it had to be removed in order to maintain neutrality. 67.162.220.47 (talk) 21:48, 11 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I was hoping to discover whether the French word promete (promise) has any connection with the mythological Prometheus. Unfortunately, there is no French language version of the main article. Can anyone supply an answer? --DStanB (talk) 10:49, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
