It wasn't Tom Cabot, but JOHN Cabot !!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Cabot
and he was Italian ! => Giovanni Caboto
*John :)
BTW, SC, I left mine as John rather than Giovanni :)
>BTW, SC, I left mine as John rather than Giovanni :)
That's very bad of you !
:)
your italophile conscience will come and torture you and you will lose sleep!
anyway: *erforscht
I can't quit figure out why on Earth, one of the most famous Italian figures would see his name angicised in a German sentence. This is beyond me!
*anglicised
I thought the same when I read his Venetian name on the German Wikipedia, but then again... he seems not to be from Venice originally.
And then also: every country has their own version of Christoph Kolumbus, Christopher Columbus, Cristobal Colón and so on... German doesn't seem to have "Johannes Kabot", so what's to be preferred?
>I can't for the life of me figure out why the name of one of the most famous Venetian figures would see his name italianized.
Venice? How many divisions?
