Latin Descendents List

edit

@Chuck Entz Greetings. Regarding your reversion on this article, I don't believe that it was correct. Either way, I accept that the process was probably not the best, so I added a template instead. Anyway, the Descendents section is completely unsourced (with that I'm including each of the Lemmes where this type of sources usually are) and plain wrong in same cases (Portuguese Bélgika?). For starters, most of the words are borrowings from French, so the structure isn't even correct. Secondly, the Proper Noun Belgica to designate Belgium was itself influenced by French; as it is a post-Roman construct. It makes no sense for the other entries to have it as etymon. In fact, Belgique came from Gallia Belgica, and it should be that Lemme holding this list; maybe belgica or belgicus at best, but not this one. I hope the deletion of content makes sense now. - Sarilho1 (talk) 09:29, 31 July 2019 (UTC)Reply
