"In mint condition" doesn't mean "in good condition." It means "perfect as if freshly minted." JackLumber 19:21, 11 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

mint (Etymology 2) -- 2 word senses that seems to be the same

[edit]

Hi, sense 1 and 3 are highly similar and I wonder if sense 3 is really usefull (e.g. no translation). Is mint used to designate consistently plants that are Lamiaceae but not Mentha ? If yes, is it not a mistake in usage and should it have a definition by itself (sense 1 may be reformulated to encompass this usage)... Dodecaplex (talk) 13:53, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
