Talk:Indo-European studies

Indo-European studies
As Liliana says about, " is for a few very common terms that merit existence for translation purposes even though they're SoP." I think this is too specific and too obviously SOP; even the translations are transparent, with perhaps the most interesting feature of them being that some, from languages which regularly use -ik or cognates of it in this way, use -ik or cognates of it. - -sche (discuss) 18:08, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Indo-Europeanistics is citable. If it means the same thing, translations can be hosted there and this entry is unnecessary. — Ungoliant (Falai) 00:41, 6 October 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep as a translations target. mentioned by Ungoliant above finds mere 125 hits, unlike, so it is the latter term that is usually used in English. The entry currently hosts German "Indogermanistik", Italian "indoeuropeistica", and Russian "индоевропеистика". Notice the curious German translation. For more languages, see interwiki of Indo-European studies. --Dan Polansky (talk) 15:44, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
 * What do you find curious about the German translation? "Indogermanisch" is the German term for what English terms "Indo-European". - -sche (discuss) 19:17, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
