Yeah, but it's useful for curious folk like me who wonder what's up with all those "pradesh"es. Brutannica 09:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

It seems like it has to be incorrect to state, as we are doing, what "pradesh" is in various writing systems rather then in various languages. It seems like Russian Wikipedia saying that "советски" is written "soviet" in Latin-based writing systems such as English, French, German, and Irish. That would be ridiculous, since in French it's "soviétique", in German it's "sowjet", in Irish it's something like "sóivéadach", etc. Do Hindi, Bhojpuri, Marathi, Konkani, and Nepali really all have the same word, spelled the same way? How about Assamese, Bengali, and Manipuri? Largoplazo (talk) 17:47, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
