Talk:Baqa'a
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Does the name of Baqa'a have any etymological connection to the Beqaa region of Lebanon?--Pharos 14:37, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Baqa'a/Baka?
Setting aside the totally immaterial nature of the "Baka" comment, is it even correct? Surely Arabic "q" is a different stop sound from Japanese "k", and the "'" is a glotal, too? What would actually be useful would be a note on the transliteration and pronuciation... Alai 13:06, 26 September 2005 (UTC)
