Vowels and Diphthongs

[edit]

Belorussian article (Беларуская (тарашкевіца) ) about latvian do have description of latvian vowels and dipthongs. Probably should be translated and writen here. It will be more easy, then do it from zero. If I'll have a time;)

Finaly added section about vowels and dipthongs. I'm not shure about dipthong part;) But I'm not shure about latvian dipthongs in dipthong article. I hope someone would improve what I had writen;)

Ablative case

[edit]

Someone is trying to add an ablative case in this article (also Latvian declension) which does not exist in Latvian. As a native speaker of Latvian I first hear about it and I am very surprised of these attempts. Here is the explanation (in Latvian) of ablative in the data base of Terminology Commmission, Latvian Academy of Sciences saying that there is no ablative case in Latvian but the meaning of it is expressed with genitive: [1] Dukurs (talk) 17:46, 5 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Cosmographia universalis

[edit]
Moved from Latvian language

"in Sebastian Münster's Cosmographia universalis (1544)" (title with small u)

"Cosmographia Universalis, 1544" (title with capital U)

Thus: The titles are contradicting, which is correct?

According to Cosmographia (Sebastian Münster)#Editions, there's only one, a German, edition of 1544, and its title page reads: "Cosmographia: Beschreibũg aller Lender důrch Sebastianum Munsterum [Nom.: Sebastianus Munsterus] in welcher begriffen, aller völcker, Herschafften, Stetten und namhafftiger flecken, herkom̃en: Sitten, gebreüch, ordnung, glauben, secten, und hantierung, durch die gantze welt, und fürnemlich Teütscher nation. Was auch besunders in iedem landt gefunden, unnd darin beschehen sey. Alles mit figuren und schönen landt taflen erklert, und für augen gestelt. Getruckt zů Basel durch Henrichum Petri. Anno M. D. XLiiij [1544]."

Thus, both titles (Cosmographia universalis and Cosmographia Universalis) or the year is wrong (that it's not 1544 from the first German edition, but some later year and edition).
Also on which page is the prayer (or in which section if there are no page numbers)?

What's the question here? Is it whether the "u" of "universal" should be upper- or lowercase? Seriously? --MF-W 20:43, 23 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
