Discussion

Simplified output

The adjacent sets of brackets seem awkward. Wouldn't the following be an improvement? It follows the form of transliterations (e.g., in голова), putting the alternate form closer to its countepart.

glava (Cyrillic spelling глава) f (plural glave)

But I think it may be better still to simplify everything by combining the brackets, but still leaving the plural last, as in most entries:

glava f (Cyrillic spelling глава, plural glave)

I just reverted the one edit of yesterday, because the entries appeared considerably deteriorated, the plural form being plural ] in lieu of the hitherto extant and distinctly visible one. The uſer hight Bogorm converſation 07:13, 20 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
