(just curious) </I>In Slovene language we use declension on names too. Our language rules are pretty complex and we also have a lot of exceptions. Of course there are some names that are protected and the simplest way out from there is to use adjective so that declension is used there and not on the name itself. For example to translate word Mageia in web pages was really a challenge as it wasn't always 100% obvious if that word goes to the community, association, project or distribution. In such cases I used more common phrases or words then absolutely correct by all the rules of our language. We have so called &quot;book language&quot; (direct word for word translation) but it's almost exclusively used in books, national TV and radio. Not to mention many dialects we have. Many have their own rules and words from neighbour countries (Italy, Austria, Hungary and Croatia) so it's a big challenge to understand them fully. So our language is quite hard to learn well and we're also small country (only 2 millions). But that doesn't stop some people from Europe or even Japan to learn it ;). I hope that these facts are interesting to some ;).
