[edit] Discussion
The Thermidorian mainly started after the death of Robespierre. It was a reaction. (anon)
- Are you suggesting that something in the article is wrong? Or are you just summarizing one thing it says? -- Jmabel | Talk 20:21, Nov 12, 2004 (UTC)
- The month was named after the French word thermal which comes from the greek word "Thermos" which means warm
My english isn't good enough for me to edit the page, but this is not true: the word "Thermidor" does come from the greek "thermos", but not form teh french "thermal". "Thermal" means "related to hydrotherapy". Waters used for hydrotherapy are called "eaux thermales" in french because they are often warm. (I think the word "thermale" is used in english, but I don't know its sense precisely) 82.196.52.54 11:36, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
