Talk:32nd Infantry Division Triglavski

Logatec vs Rogatec
@Peacemaker67, the sentence "the 39th Infantry Regiment was marching from Celje to Lepoglava to join Detachment Ormozki of the 4th Army, and had reached Logatec" makes little sense. Logatec is SW of Ljubljana, itself SW of Celje and there is no chance of advancing from Celje to Lepoglava would take you to Logatec. Could it be a typo/misspelled Rogatec? It would make sense as it is on the way from Celje to Lepoglava. Cheers!Tomobe03 (talk) 09:29, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Just to avoid potential doubt: Mentions of Logatec in the paragraph starting with "The Germans captured Celje on 11 April..." make sense geographically.--Tomobe03 (talk) 09:39, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Naming policy/convention
As a side note, if Ormozki is a possesive adjective of the town name Ormož, it should read Ormoški (in Slovenian, Croatian, Serbian etc. all the same).--Tomobe03 (talk) 09:30, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

I changed Rišnajaski to Rišnjački Risnjački assuming, based on the map, that the MD was named after Mount Risnjak (and rišnjački is possessive adjective of the same name.

Regarding the use of native langage adjectives for names in English - is there a policy or convention on the topic? Use of native language adjectives (although using English capitalisation, otherwise the adjectives would not be capitalised) creates a potential problem. For example, in this article discussing 32nd Infantry Division Triglavski, it appears that the Mountain Detachment Triglavski was named after Mt Triglav presumably under the native name of triglavski planinski odred and "Triglavski" is used in English name Mountain Detachment Triglavski. However, I assume the 7th army's division was originally ''32. triglavska pešadijska divizija'' or something like that - employing "triglavska" with -a suffix as "divizija" is a feminine noun, unlike masculine noun "odred" - making 32nd Infantry Division Triglavski read very odd as the division could not have had "triglavski" in its name. Applying different non-English grammatical gender suffixes to English names, depending on the grammatical gender of the noun in the non-English language, would seem equally odd. Modern translations usually skirt that issue by translating e.g. Zagrebačka županija as "Zagreb County" eliminating the need for distiction of grammatical gender of the noun in question. I'm fine with any naming scheme, just thought to point this out. --Tomobe03 (talk) 10:18, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
