1 AnswerVida ecológica1 decade agoWhat is the current understanding that average Brits have of Guy Fawkes night? How is it commemorated?
I understand that Guy Fawkes took part in the Gunpowder Plot to finish off James II and Parliament with a view to ending the fines and persecution to which Catholics were subject at the time. I also understand that average British kids a few years back raced home to light bonfires, toast sausages and drag Guy in Effigy from door to door asking for money. Has political correctness caused any of this to change in 2010?

1 AnswerSouth Africa1 decade agoIf you know Ukrainian folk music, could you send me a transliteration of a song?
IIt's called comes from a French-produced record, and they call it "Prunelles noire, épine noires"? (It means, black sloe fruit, black thornes.) If you could give the translation, it would be great.

1 AnswerLanguages1 decade agoI'm having trouble hyphenating Spanish and other foreign last names.?
I'm sure that this information is in style manuals somewhere, but I'm not finding it. It's simple when it's Perez-Chavez. But what if a married name is tacked on, as in Spanish? Perez-Chavez de Murillo, say. Do you add more hyphens? Are Italian names in English with "De" usually with caps and stuck together, "DeBello," for example? And what about last names like "de Vries"--suppose that it were "Hilda Sepùlveda-de Vries," or would that be Hilda Sepúlveda-de-Vries," or Hilda Sepúlveda-deVries." Of course, if the lady is married, she might be Hilda Sepúlveda-Carrana de de Vries. This kind of thing comes up where people want to display all their distinguished and/or foreign ancestors--is there some way to make this intelligible in English?
