Talk:Marie Josephine Louise of Savoy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Latin enscription

The articles says her tomb is encribed with "Galliarum Regina". This literally means Queen of the Gauls, referring not to a plurality of Celtic people (Galli, -us, therfore Gallorum) but to a plurality of entitis called Gaul (Galliam -ae, therefore Galliarum).

I do not know whether this is a typo her or on the tomb or whether it refers to a plural term "Galliae" referring to France. Therefore, I have fact tagged it, given the literal translation and retained a reference to France.
