Bavarian language

[edit]

Hi MinerB40, it's not a bad idea adding the Bavarian pronounciation to the various municipalities. But what you actually did is plain wrong in the English Wikipedia – english speaking people pronounce letters not as Germans. E.g., you wrote "Geamaring" but the first two syllables of Germering are not at all pronounced like the first two syllables of Germany. Also, you need sources for such things - e.g. you wrote "Au in da Holledau" but here someone else thinks "Au in da Hojadau". You should better use H:IPA-EN and give sources that your proposed pronunciations are correct. I've therefore reverted your additions. --Cyfal (talk) 17:56, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits

[edit]

Could you stop altering articles about small Polish villages such at this please ?[1] - GizzyCatBella🍁 13:06, 17 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As you have already been told, please stop altering the standard formulation by adding "formerly" like you just did in your last edits. Thank you. FromCzech (talk) 17:26, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry. I've seen other articles include a "formerly" before German exonyms or endonyms and thought that was the standard for denoting that the name has been historically used. I was unaware that GizzyCatBella was referring to my inclusion of "formerly." Thank you for making that more clear to me. I will stop including it if it conflicts with the standard formula.
