Talk:-ovo/-evo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It is worth adding that the suffix is also featured in Russian surnames, such as Khitrovo, Durnovo, Nedobrovo, etc. --Ghirlandajo 14:41, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Surnames? This use was unfamiliar to me, but a quick Google search was helpful enough. Yes, of course, it's worth adding, but I may need some more research. As a Russian, you know more than me about this surnames use without a doubt, I haven't encountered it before, since we don't have this in Bulgaria. I'll just add a single sentence from what's clear, have a try on some more research or otherwise leave it to other Wikipedians, who're better up in this use. → Тодор Божинов / Todor Bozhinov → Talk 18:16, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
These guys are probably aristocrats - dvoryani - so placenames again after all. Miko Stavrev 18:35, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] -evo

Why is the form -evo used after palatal or palatalized consonants? --84.61.41.100 15:16, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

It would have something to do with the phonological rules in the Slavic languages, I think. TodorBozhinov 16:44, 5 August 2006 (UTC)
