It's still called a dame jeanne in Belgium.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.221.124.66 (talk) 13:09, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I was born and raised in the US and have never heard the term "carboy" either. I now live in Mexico, where it's called a "garrafón." The only translation that comes to my mind would be "jug" or maybe "bottle for the water cooler." 2806:101E:4:527B:C4D8:382A:D360:750A (talk) 19:00, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
thread_title:  Etymology 

message: This page is wrong. I have always understood that a demijohn and a carboy were specific volumes of glass bottles and not synonymous. I do not have a reference on hand, but a carboy was about 19.something liters and a demijohn was about 54 liters. Sorry if I can not be of more help, most dictionaries are very general and I am talking about a specific point.

thread_title:  What the hell is a 'carboy'? 

message: First paragraph says “lady jeanne” then later in the body of the etymology it says it translates to “Lady Jane” I think you have to pick a lane on this one or at the very least capitalize Jeanne 24.140.204.84 (talk) 18:26, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
