Talk:Birthplace of Anton Chekhov

[Untitled]
I'm not sure that the word "birthhouse" exists in English. So far, it has been used in Wikipedia primarily by User:ISasha. -- Ghirla -трёп-  06:36, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

You are probably right. Let's change the name to Birth House. --ISasha 07:28, 2 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It's unknown to me (we say "birth place" but do not have one word for a specific house of birth, as far as I know). "Birthhouse" sounds to me like a special house for childbirth, a sort of miniature maternity hospital. I wonder if this word was incidentally suggested by "bathhouse", or, possibly, "birdhouse".
