Talk:Zuo Zongtang
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The paragraph on General Tso's Chicken is completely redundant with the article on General Tso's Chicken that is linked at the bottom, so I removed that section of text. — RJH 21:15, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)

The assertion that the correct pronunciation of Tso is not "Cho" is correct, but the alternative "So" doesn't match the pinyin (zuo, in which zu is very much not s). [--Teucer]
I agree with the last comment, and modified the entry. It's still possible that 'so' is correct in some other dialect, so I clarified that it's ts in Mandarin. (In Cantonese, too.) Zompist 23:23, 3 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction
In the "Notability" section, the following claim is made about the naming of General Tso's Chicken: "...the reasoning behind this, if it exists, has not yet been discovered."
In the very next section "See Also", a claim is made as to the reasoning behind the name.
One of the claims must be incorrect.
