Should "Dutch" be preferred, as an adjective for "Holland", to "Hollandic"? And, is there any reference to the term Friso-Hollandic or Frisian-Hollandic Wars in the English literature? Srnec17:14, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No, it should not. Holland in this (as in any) sense does not refer to the Netherlands, or Dutch, but as belonging to the county of Holland. As for friso-hollandic I believe I encountered the term in the history of the low countries, I happen to have both versions, Dutch and English, and I believe this was the term used.
The term Friso-Hollandic looks so unusual it might be best if it were referenced. I know that Holland never refers to the Netherlands in their entirety, but does not Dutch refer specifically to Holland and its ancient language? Srnec17:26, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
