Try, again, throwing your corrections at wikipedia. You see
what TinyUrl does to your mind, you've even forgot how to
parse a Url.

Using a name with a wrong spelling can happen, insisting it is
the right spelling without checking is a bit foolish. Have you
never heard people mention, that they are not glad with
wikipedia being treated as a scientific source, because of the
many faults?

When its the only source or the most informative source in english
I didn't want to push the issue because it appeared that Peter was
trying to pick a fight, I had hoped you would have done more
research before sticking Peter's foot in your mouth.

Google:
18 for sauveterien
827 for Sauveterrian


The naming practice comes from France, you get the name by adding a
suffix -ien to a sitename.

If someone called your trade generics, would you point out the mistake, or
laugh about the fool?

Yeah, see above. Do you really learn no foreign languages in the
US?

That's a bigoted statement. We live close to the border with Mexico
so the primary foriegn language is spanish. There are only residual
traces of german speakers in Texas, most are isolated in the Hill
country and are of advanced age. The other major languages spoken
in our city is Cantonese and Urdu. It would kind of be bigoted for
me to insist that you know spellings of obscure words in Urdu,
don't you think?

If you'd lived in a more multilingual society, you would probably have
learned to check the spelling, especially when using obscure technical terms
in French. Or have the original terms been replaced with Americanisms? :-)

have fun
