✅ under various spellings. The lemma should probably be moved. Ioaxxere (talk) 18:12, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I assume you mean used in English. Wikipedia spells it differently - . DonnanZ (talk) 18:18, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Should be moved to where? The common Turkish spelling is saray helvası. In general, the English spelling halva for the stand-alone noun is more common than helva. I don't know whether this carries over to this compound. --Lambiam 20:33, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I think it should be moved to saray helva to match the Wikipedia entry. Ioaxxere (talk) 22:53, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Dilemma of the week. Both spellings are used in English, so why not keep saray halva as an alt form, and transfer the main content to saray helva? DonnanZ (talk) 09:15, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
 * "saray halva" doesn't seem to exist in English at all. Ioaxxere (talk) 18:23, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

The 2012 and 2014 quotes use the term in italics, which might be considered code-switching. – Einstein2 (talk) 18:20, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
