Mount

[edit]

The phrasing "because it is deemed prefix "Mount" is somewhat silly for the Czech Republic" is not fully grammatical. A better rendering would be "because it is deemed that usage of the prefix "Mount" is somewhat silly for the Czech Republic" or "because usage of the prefix "Mount" is considered somewhat silly for the Czech Republic". However, the "somewhat silly" strikes me as non-encyclopedic in tone and does not tell me what is wrong with "Mount Whatever". That would seem to me the most natural form in English usage. Why is it deprecated when speaking of Czech mountains? --Khajidha (talk) 14:48, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
