Talk:Chauffeur

thread_title:  Pronunciation 

message: In the US, people with a lot of money, old money, refer to this person as their "driver", and this person often does not wear any sort of uniform (meaning, no black suit). If you say "chauffeur" you sound like Rodney Dangerfield who just won the lottery, or like you just rented a stretch limo for your prom. They even say it in the abstract for this NYTimes article.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.81.34.199 (talk) 09:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I've used chauffeurs in a number of spots around the globe, and I'm considering adding some sections on Vehicle Types common for chauffeured car service, Legal Issues facing the industry, and the evolving role of the chauffeur in light of the current world economic situation, limousine networks, and limousine taxi apps.  Does anyone think this would be better suited to another page that deals more with the industry itself (one doesn't currently exist), or does that work well in the context of this page?  I've updated some needed citations and will continue to evaluate the page in the coming weeks.  Feedback would be very helpful.  Thanks!  WorldTravelerPhil (talk) 17:51, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: Chauffeuse is an obscure archaic term for a female chauffeur (borrowed from French), a bit like "aviatrix" used to be used for female pilots. The normal term for a female chauffeur in English is simply "chauffeur". I've removed the sentence in question since it is misleading and WP:UNDUE. Nosferattus (talk) 23:16, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Clarification Needed 

message: The German-language Wikipedia's article about St. Vaclav is a Featured Article, and seems to be very thorough and well-researched. It has a significant amount about the iconography, hagiography and religious significance of Vaclav, which I notice someone mentioned above on this talk page. Anyway my German, however, is not good at all, I know enough to give a cursory read-through of the article but I'm nowhere near up to translating or adapting any of the material to English. It looks like a good jumping-off point that could help make this article quite excellent, though, if any German-speaking participants felt inspired! Florestanová (talk) 04:49, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  German version 

message: I realise this could be a bit of a can of worms, but why is the title at "Wenceslaus"?  This is neither how he is known in his own country, Vaclav, nor the normal anglicised form of his name, Wenceslas.  I wondered if this form might have come to us through some other language, e.g. Latin, but apparently not, I have consulted Wikipedias in several other languages, they call him a variety of names, but none of them Wenceslaus.

Talk:Teo Torriatte (Let Us Cling Together)

message: From the article:
*The song's title in English uses an outdated form of romanization by applying the particle 'o' to the word behind it. When romanized correctly, "" reads "Te (w)o Toriatte."
Is it just outdated now, or was it outdated at the time? When was this rule changed? boffy_b 16:46, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Outdated Romanisation 

message: How come this article, and 80% of google hits use the romanisation "torriatte" with the letter r twice? The article even mentions that the correct transliteration should have only one r. But where does this spelling with double r come from? You can see clearly from the picture, that the printing on the record sleeve has the correct romanisation, ie. with a single letter r.
Garrulus carelicus (talk) 17:27, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That's the single, only released in Japan. The back cover of A Day at the Races uses Torriatte, with double r, which is likely the more popular source. 82.95.254.249 (talk) 08:55, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why Torriatte? 

message: The article says:
"[...] it is one of four Queen songs in which an entire verse is sung in a language other than English".
I know this one, "Mustapha" and "Las palabras de amor". What's the 4th song? The section A Day at the Races (album)#Teo Torriatte (Let Us Cling Together) also names only three. Thanks--Aner77 (talk) 00:22, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  4th song 

message: I removed this sentence for a number of reasons:
"Teo Torriatte" is one of five Queen songs in which at least one verse is sung in a language other than English, the others being: "Bohemian Rhapsody" (1975), "Seaside Rendevouz" (1975), "Mustapha" (1978) and "Las Palabras de Amor" (1982).
Firstly, none of these songs has "at least one verse" in a foreign language. Which verse in Bohemian Rhapsody isn't in English? Which verse in Seaside Rendevouz isn't in English? Mustapha flits between languages throughout. As for Teo Torriatte and Las Palabras de Amor, it's the choruses that contain the Japanese and Spanish.
More pressing, though, is the question of whether any of this belongs in an article about the song Teo Torriatte. It's a fascinating snippet, but if anything, it should be on the Queen page.213.107.110.183 (talk) 15:31, 10 April 2011 (UTC)

Talk:John Dopyera

message: He is frequently recognized as the father of modern acoustic string instruments.
That's laying it on a bit thick, isn't it? Certainly, he designed all three forms of resonator guitar (dobro, biscuit, and tricone). And, the article claims he made some improvements to the banjo. What else?
To my mind, this isn't nearly as significant as, for example, the contributions of Lloyd Loar. Is the resonator guitar really as significant as the archtop?
I doubt that any reputable authority would recognise any single person as the father of modern acoustic string instruments. I'm happy to be proved wrong. But the article as it stands doesn't IMO support this exalted title. Andrewa 19:20, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

So, if you have the version WITH Metal Thrashing Mad then you've got the version with at least one song from every studio album, if not, then you don't?
