Kuyata as Kujata

Latest comment: 5 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Borges's "Kuyata" in Spanish could be pronounced like "Kujata" and that's how it got transliterated in the first English translation.

I believe when I consulted the newer annotated English edition, there was an endnote on this saying that the original translator had decided they should adopt the Río de la Plata area pronunciation where Borges is native to. Unfortunately I did not jot down the page number etc. of this endnote, and I can't find this info online, so if anyone could help please add it.

Applying the yeísmo pronunciation, the 1969 English translation changed the spelling to "Kujata", but given that Borges identified his source as Lane who used "Kuyoota", this "j" pronunciation was considered a mistake, and was corrected it to "Quyata" in the 2005 translation. --Kiyoweap (talk) 15:01, 1 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Kujata (mythology) → Kujata – Clear WP:PRIMARYTOPIC, doesn't really conflict with anything. Gets significantly more views than the island. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 14:25, 31 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Support, clear primary topic. —Xezbeth (talk) 16:14, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Support. 1259 vs. 30 views in the last month (with the latter being only an alternative name) says clear WP:PTOPIC. Hatnote to the article about the island from the one about the mythological creature. Narky Blert (talk) 11:13, 5 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
