Talk:Mount Parnassus
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I recently came across a note mentioning the 'destruction of parnassus" and I believe it referenced the flight of the muses. Does anyone have anything on this?? ~~wblakesx
Is there any reason why it is written ParnassUs? I'd like to change it to Parnassos. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.2.160.84 (talk • contribs).
- Parnassus is the traditional and standard English spelling, which almost invariably is the spelling used to refer to the mythological location. Parnassos is the transliterated Greek form, occasionally used to refer to the geographical location in Greece by its "native" name (although of course the real Greek name for it doesn't even use the Latin alphabet). --Quuxplusone 08:45, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
