Talk:Madras sauce

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Madras Curry or Madras Sauce??

I would like to rename this Madras Curry unless there is some good reason not to.

I do not know how to rename an article.

Calling it Sauce instead of Curry is to so a simple translation of an authentic Indian word - is it because it is a Tamil word that the translation is considered necessary?

It seems to me be cultural arrogance to rename something into the closest English word.

Pasta becomes dried wheat paste maybe; pâté becomes paste; pesto becomes paste; the richness of our culinary heritage is eroded by simple translations.
