Literal meaning

Can the literal meanings of the terms "chả" and "giò" be given? Badagnani (talk) 04:25, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

Nem rán

As "Nem rán" is the standard term, I've moved this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.244.79.186 (talk) 06:22, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

You moved it by cut and paste though, which should never be done under any circumstances. I've gone ahead and history merged the page. Graham87 02:11, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

the official name is : "Nem rán" "Chả giò" it's only a dialect so the official page's name should be Nem rán ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.173.127.98 (talk) 06:48, 21 February 2014 (UTC)

Agreed, it should be moved to nem ran. 74.102.229.37 (talk) 03:40, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Title

In standard Vietnamese, this is called nem ran so that should be the title of the page. 74.102.229.37 (talk) 18:43, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

-Agreed, this should be kept as nem ran.151.191.175.208 (talk) 21:12, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose, it'd be Nem rán, and these are more usually known by the South Vietnamese name due to restaurants in English speaking countries almost exclusively being South Vietnamese. In ictu oculi (talk) 20:52, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

Chả giò → Nem ran – Changing to correct name in standard Vietnamese, as discussed (with support and no objections) on the talk page; see Talk:Chả giò. Nem ran already exists as a redirect. Klbrain (talk) 12:09, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:22, 12 November 2017 (UTC)

• Talk page suggests you've dropped a diacritic. Discussion might be in order. Dicklyon (talk) 17:45, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
• Oppose Nem rán is North Vietnamese, these are known in English from South Vietnamese menus. In ictu oculi (talk) 20:49, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
• @Klbrain, Dicklyon, and In ictu oculi: queried move request Anthony Appleyard (talk) 23:25, 12 November 2017 (UTC)
• Switched to Neutral: My thanks to User:Jenks24 for recognizing that the talk page had been blanked with an edit at 19:43, 14 September 2014‎ by 74.102.229.37. That does reveal other comments that show support for the inclusion of the diacritic (unlike the comments I had seen on the talk page). So, agree that if any change is appropriate, then Nem rán would be more appropriate. However, I also welcome the helpful comments from In ictu oculi; I'm unsure of the most common use in English, and therefore have no objection to the proposal being rejected should more expert opinion prefer it. Rather than withdraw the request now, perhaps await further comments. Klbrain (talk) 00:37, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

• Oppose as currently proposed. Would not oppose with the daicritic if others agree it's better, but per iio, that's not at all certain. Dicklyon (talk) 02:33, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

• Oppose without further evidence of English usage (per User:In ictu oculi). The strong South Vietnamese influence in the U.S. means that chả giò shows up more than nem rán in English print sources. WP:REDIRECTSARECHEAP. Am I missing something else? —  AjaxSmack  03:38, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
