Talk:Zograf Monastery

message: The article stated that the attack of 1275 was by Catalan pirates; but in fact it was by Crusaders under the direction of the Byzantine emperor. I've corrected the article to reflect this, and added an external link that goes into more detail. MishaPan 17:52, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Zograf Monastery →  – The name of the monastery in Greek is Ιερά Μονή Ζωγράφου, not Ιερά Μονή Ζωγράφ.
Having been to Mount Athos, I can testify that the monks of the entire peninsula commonly refer to the monastery by simply saying Ζωγράφου, which transliterates to Zographou, not Zograf. I understand that the name comes from Saint George the Zograf, but it is common grammar in Greek to add ου to the end of Ζωγράφ to denote ownership (or in this case, foundership). Additionally, all English speakers I have encountered have called the monastery Zographou and not Zograf.
My second argument is that this name change should be made to be consistent with other articles in the Mount Athos category. Examples that use the "ου" are:
* Esphigmenou
* Docheiariou
* Agiou Pavlou Monastery
* Konstamonitou Monastery
* Gregoriou Monastery
* Dionysiou Monastery
* Koutloumousiou Monastery
* Philotheou Monastery
* Karakallou Monastery
A strong example is Agiou Pavlou Monastery since, like Zographou, it is named after a particular person (Paul of Xeropotamou). Agiou Pavlou is not called Agios Pavlos, so why should Zografou be Zograf? Swehlam (talk) 05:51, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

text: Zograf is the word as it is used in Bulgarian, hence the Monastery is inhabited by Bulgarian monks since the Middle ages, when they found it. Jingiby (talk) 06:00, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: More relevant are the names of the Russian St. Panteleimon Monastery and the Serbian monastery of Hilandar. Best, Apcbg (talk) 06:26, 16 March 2023 (UTC)
