Re: [libreoffice-l10n] "body text" and "text body"
Hello Olivier, Wikipedia explains the concept: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_text My guess is that possibly "body" refers to the largest mass or "bulk" of the text, or maybe the metaphor is "head and body" (headings being the "head"). Other languages may use different metaphors, though. In some languages the metaphor is "bread". For appropriate translation, I'd suggest consulting a dictionary. Best regards, Tuomas Olivier Hallot kirjoitti 13.6.2023 19:45: Hi L10n team I have a question on English linguistics: the paragraph style "body text" is "text of the body" right? as opposed to "body of the text". I'm asking because I see translated as "body of the text" all over the internet and in several languages, including in doc from other softwares such as Adobe, MS for pt-BR.

We translate it as LOTekstBlok, meaning "block of text" Regards, Kees Mike Saunders schreef op 13.06.2023 18:48: Hi Olivier, On 13.06.23 18:45, Olivier Hallot wrote: I have a question on English linguistics: the paragraph style "body text" is "text of the body" right? as opposed to "body of the text".

To distinguish it from "header of the text", "footer of the text" etc., then "body of the text" makes the most sense. But I've only ever seen/used the term in English, and not other languages...
