- santiagobasulto 6y agoThe date of creation seems wrong, right? Shouldn't it be ~1500?
- hnarn 6y agoMaybe it's one of those things where someone mixed up the centuries. The page states "XVIIe siècle" (17th century), if someone somewhere mixed up "16th century" (which is correct) with "the 1600s", that could explain the error. Personally I'm really not a fan of using the "century" notation, and in my native language it's never used.
- bibinou 6y agoas spotted by sl956, I mistakenly linked to a copy.
- shakow 6y ago> and in my native language it's never used. So how do you handle fuzzy dates? What language is it, if I may ask?
- hnarn 6y agoSwedish. It's exactly like English except we only use exact dates or "the X-hundreds" or "the X-ies", never the "off by one" count of centuries. Just for the record, I'm not saying this is a feature of Swedish specifically. I'm sure there are other languages that do the same.
