Talk:Thocomerius

message: Dahn, the name Tihomir is not attested, but only assumed. Some historians assumed that "Thocomerius" was simply a variant or misspelling of Slavic name Tihomir instead of being a Cuman name.
:Unicul document care ne da numele tatalui lui Basarab e un act al regelui Ungariei Carol Robert, din 26 noiembrie 1332 doi ani dupa dezastrul zis "de la Posada" , prin care rasplateste pe un comite Laurentiu de Zarand pentru vitejia lui în respectiva lupta, act în care îl pomeneste pe Basarab, filium Thocomerii deci Basarab, fiul lui Thocomerius. Istoricii nostri s-au grabit sa identifice Thocomer sau Thocomeriu cu numele slav Tihomir. De zeci de ani mai multi specialisti, printre care marele nostru orientalist Aurel Decei, au facut observatia ca numele din documentul ungar se asemana mult mai mult cu numele cuman Toctomerie, întâlnit în analele rusesti. Dar istoriografia noastra îi da înainte cu Tihomir. (Neagu Djuvara)

message: "The only document that gives us the name of Basarab's father is a document of Charles Robert of Anjou, the king of Hungary, dated 26 november 1332, two years after the disaster believed to have happened in Posada, through which he rewards Laurentiu of Zarand for his bravery in said fight, document that mentions Basarab, 'filium Thocomerii', so Basarab, 'son of Thocomerius'. Historians made haste to identify 'Thocomer' or 'Thocomerius' with the slavic name 'Tihomir'. For decades, a number of specialists, among which our great orientalist Aurel Decei, made the remark that the name found in the Hungarian document is more similar with the cuman name 'Toctomerie', found in the Russian annals. But our historiography goes along with 'Tihomir'."

thread_title:  Rodney Hide 

message: In the book The History of Epsom, the author talks about how the typical explanation behind the suburb name (that it is named by Colonel Robert Wynyard after the Epsom racecourse and horse racing events) can't make sense, as the first horse race was 1842 and the suburb was named in 1841. Checking archives actually refutes this: references to the "village of Epsom" and to the Epsom Races appear in newspapers within a week of each other in September 1841. Planning for both events (racing events and subdividing the village) clearly overlaps, and naming was likely at the same time (though which came first might be lost to time). --Prosperosity (talk) 02:04, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Hawker Typhoon

message: The article currently says that the all-up-weight stall speed is 80-90 mph with flaps up and 65-70 mph with flaps down. So far, so good. But the next stall speeds for a 1500-lb lighter configuration are 75-80 mph and 65-70 mph respectively. The stall speed decreases as the weight gets lighter in the flaps-up configuration, which makes sense. But why doesn’t the stall speed do the same thing in the flaps-down configuration? It’s constant despite the lighter weight. Is this a typo?
71.237.254.126 (talk) 09:56, 29 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Those are the figures in the Pilot's Notes, so it's not a typo. The implication is that at the heavier weight the stall speed is towards the top of that range and at the lighter weight it's nearer the bottom end. The Pilot's Notes also show that stall speed is less sensitive to weight when wheels and flaps are down.
