Weird lang tag, correct syntax?

The source contains

[[fish sauce]] ({{lang|th|''nampla'' น้ำปลา}})

But at least for me, this is rendered as

fish sauce ()

Any clue what the correct syntax is?

 Template:Requested move/end must be substituted

The request to rename this article to Pad thai has been carried out.

Comment: Merriam-Webster notes that it's "often capitalized T", though. --Paul_012 (talk) 18:19, 26 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Don't we normally capitalize words derived from place names? The lead says it means ""fried Thai style". —BarrelProof (talk) 22:15, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move.  Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Capitalization

The spelling with the lowercase t is listed as the main entry in those dictionaries. I think it is analogous to mee siam ("Siamese noodle"), and more or less similar to hamburger ("relating to Hamburg") and china, with the lowercase c, which means a kind of porcelain imported from China. Moreover, pad thai means "fried Thai style" but it doesn't follow English syntax, as phat is originally a verb and thai is originally an adjective. I wouldn't request the move if this dish was specifically called Thai-style stir-fry, for example. --Potapt (talk) 13:08, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for that thoughtful explanation. —BarrelProof (talk) 09:19, 6 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Name translation

Using Google Translate is a little difficult since there are so many possibilities for either "pad" or "thai", but many of the combinations work out to "stir fry" in English. So is that an accurate translation or is it more complicated than that? 68.2.235.85 (talk)
