Name transliteration

edit

The transliteration of the name isn't really correct. I suggest that the article should be renamed according to standard Cyrillic transliteration practices. Specifically the word that isn't really right is "Dolgaï". The Cyrillic is долгай so it should be either dolgay or dolgaj. --Stacey Doljack Borsody 18:48, 3 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

I don't think this would be a controversial rename since it is a spelling change to conform to Wikipedia transliteration standards. Anyone disagree? --Stacey Doljack Borsody 16:24, 4 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
It is renamed now. --Stacey Doljack Borsody 18:24, 7 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Name

edit

How come the name is transliterated as "Tooruktug Dolgay Tangtym" when the Russian is "Пуща полна ек кедра"? I thought the transliteration should be "Pushcha polna yek kedpa". ionas68224| talk| contribs| email 19:03, 15 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Because the anthem is Tuvan and not Russian. Someone earlier just provided the Russian translation. --Stacey Doljack Borsody 23:31, 15 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
I thought since Tuva was in Russia, they spoke only Russian. ionas68224| talk| contribs| email 22:58, 16 July 2007 (UTC)Reply
According to Tuva, the national languages are Russian and Tuvan. Badagnani 23:03, 16 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Please join a discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Central_Asia/Tuva_task_force#Transliteration_of_Tuvan_Language on this page's specific transliteration challenges. --Stacey Doljack Borsody (talk) 23:39, 17 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

"Literal" translation

edit

What is now under the "literal translation" header is far form a literal translation. It's a nice text that more or less covers the meaning, but large parts are left out or altered.

It's better to put an actual literal translation in it's place or change the header for "poetic interpretation". Kardoen (talk) 19:26, 17 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, I've changed it to "English translation". Is that ok? — kashmīrī TALK 21:04, 17 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
