In my opinion these translations are suboptimal- which is not any fault of Tapio's. The problem is that in Finnish (as in German iof I got Marcus' complaint right) there are no concepts that match the English section etc. In Finnish, we usually use "kohta" 'position, location' or "luku" 'chapter' for all of these (as in "katso kohta 1.2.3" 'see subsection 1.2.3'). Furthermore, "osa" means 'part' in Finnish and is IMHO not a suitable translation for section. If we relly must find some translation for these, I'd suggest luku 'chapter', aliluku or osaluku 'section', kohta 'subsection', alikohta 'subsubsection'. But even this is artificial (Soory for any typos - I'm on a slow and unreliable link asnd correcting them is a pain.) -- Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho A7 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ** <URL:http://www.iki.fi/gaia/> ** The FAQ is your friend.
