Talk:Fasolada
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Name
Google search among English-language pages finds:
| Spelling | Google Books | Greek | |
|---|---|---|---|
| fasolada | 528 | 21 | 20,000 |
| fassolada | 103 | 18 | 0 |
| fasoulada | 100 | 3 | 513 |

So on the Web at large, fasolada is more popular than the other spellings combined; in Greek, φασολάδα is 40 times more common than φασουλάδα. In books, fassolada comes a close second. In Greek dictionaries (Babiniotis and Andriotis), φασολάδα is the main entry; φασουλάδα is listed as "more vernacular" (λαϊκότερο). So I'm moving to the most common English spelling, which is also the standard Greek spelling, fasolada. --Macrakis 15:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
