does anyone know what a grave choir is? some a capella singers sitting in a ditch? ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 06:32, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- I note that someone has now translated it to "grave sanctuary", which is a little clearer, but I am not sure if even this expression would normally be used in English. Would something like "family tomb" or even "mausoleum" be closer to the mark? ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 12:08, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- What is referred to is the architectural part of the church where a family tomb or mausoleum is. My dictionary translated "gravkor" as chapel, but I think I can not just replace the word. The sentence has to be rephrased. / Habj 10:31, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
- The german term seems to be "Grabchor" (singular) and "Grabchöre" (plural). If that is of any help. I don't think "grave chapel" is correct. --Stighammar (talk) 03:19, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
- And then: "In the choir, the legend of Saint Nicholas has been depicted." - I am still unsure what is meant by "the choir". ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 12:59, 5 December 2005 (UTC)
- This is probably a poor translation from Swedish "kor". My dictionary says: "kor: chancel, presbytery, (the place of the altar) sanctuary". I am not sure which word is the best, but I exchanged "kor" for "chancel". / Habj 10:31, 7 December 2005 (UTC)
