Old talk

Why does the article title refer to him as Fedor, and the article as Feodor? Which is right?--Lucky13pjn 08:00, Dec 21, 2004 (UTC)

Well, this is a question of phonetics. In Russian, the name is Фёдор (Fyodor, or Feodor, because the Russian letter ё is pronounced as in the word yearn). If one chooses to write Fedor (as in the name of the article), that the e letter will be pronounced as in feather, which is not correct. I even see articles about Russian folks with Theodore in them.

The article is wrong

He died in 1706. The Russian Empire was not forked until 1721. He was not Chancelor of the Russian Empire.John Pack Lambert (talk) 11:47, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
