[edit] Tsaagan vs. Tsagaan
Is the title of this article correct? The mongolian word for "white" is Tsagaan (цагаан), which would suggest that the animal should be named the same. --Latebird 23:01, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- You're right, but they named it Tsaagan anyway. T. bataar should also be T. baatar. Mongolian words tend to get mis-spelled by paleontologists I guess. Dinoguy2 23:22, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, the title is correct, and yes, the name is incorrect. Someone involved in naming it will probably say something about this issue at some point, but for now it's a really odd typo. J. Spencer 23:23, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Ah ok then, good to know. --Latebird 01:34, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
