I have just spent (misspent? wasted?) a couple of hours on the Grauniad style guide and have only perused it through “D”.When you've finished that one, the Economist's is quite good too! It’s as fascinating on its choice of language as it is on its politics. Sometimes one has to be somewhat arbitrary... But just about every Indian and Chinese name you could think of has been retransliterated. Nothing like deliberate unintelligibility... Oh, and it’s Derry, not Londonderry. Vote SDLP... So why not Athena, or Athinai? Isn't inconsistency great? |
