Re: RE: Translingual Registrations

I apologize. I thought you meant something like:

ALIENOR D'AQUITAINE  (Eleanor Of Aquitane)

(Lawrence Ransom, R. 1991), Sdlg. 87/17-5. IB, 19" (48 cm), ML
"S. pale cream yellow (RHS 4D); F. same, yellow (10A) halo; beards cream, brushed yellow; lightly ruffled; pronounced sweet fragrance. I Do X Baby Blessed. Iris au Trescols 1992 " 

or

ALIENOR D'AQUITAINE

(Lawrence Ransom, R. 1991), Sdlg. 87/17-5. IB, 19" (48 cm), ML
(Eleanor Of Auqitane) "S. pale cream yellow (RHS 4D); F. same, yellow (10A) halo; beards cream, brushed yellow; lightly ruffled; pronounced sweet fragrance. I Do X Baby Blessed. Iris au Trescols 1992 " 

Neither of which I think is a good idea.

I was not suggeting replacing a translation for the
name but providing a translation for the name listed,
It is nothing more than augmneting the description not
creating a new name.

At the moment it seems the least we could do is

try to

offer translations in the unofficial checklists.


Personally, I think that is an incredibly bad idea.
The consequence of
that is to add another layer of confusion in
referring to a particular
cultivar (i.e., having multiple names for the same
cultivar).
