# Given names that are also ordinary words. Unverified, and the list most in need of a native
# speaker's eye: every name here is found less often, and every name missing here is found
# where it is only a word. See README.md in this folder.
#
# A name of this list, standing alone, counts as a person only where something else says so:
# a greeting or an honorific next to it, or, in Cyrillic text, a capital letter in the middle
# of a sentence. At the start of a sentence, where every word has a capital, it is left
# alone: "Мақсат айқын." is about a goal. Together with a surname, a patronymic or initials
# it is a name like any other. And at the start of a Cyrillic sentence it is one next to a
# capitalized word of which nothing is known: "Мақсат Сейтқали жазды", where the surname is
# an ancestor's name and has no ending. A word of not_names.txt or of places.txt is not such
# a word: "Мақсат Банк ашты".
#
# One name per line, spelled as in the lists of given names; what the word means follows "#".
#
# [calendar] holds the names of weekdays and months. They are names that are also words, and
# are held to a stricter rule: a capital letter in the middle of a sentence is not enough,
# because the days, the months and the spring holiday are written with one. Such a name
# alone is a person only next to a greeting or an honorific, and never when a word of
# [day-or-month] in context_words.txt follows it ("Жұма күні", "Наурыз мейрамымен", "Жұма
# күнгі жиналыс").
