Translated from English?
[edit]Hi Revolution Saga, nice article. Regarding this sentence: "He also translated excerpts from Shakespeare, Chesterfield, John Milton, John Locke, Alexander Pope, Lord Byron, and Robert Burns into Armenian". Did Taghiadian translate from English into Armenian? - LouisAragon (talk) 21:32, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you! Yes, there's no indication in the sources that he translated from some third language. He studied at Bishop's College and knew English. Revolution Saga (talk) 21:41, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
- Great. Then I will add the Category:Translators from English category. :-) - LouisAragon (talk) 21:44, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

1 Biography
[edit]Unlink Paris; India (MOS:OL).Give the full name for Grotius. Ditto Shakespeare; Chesterfield.- '

Amend De veritate religionis Christianae within {{lang|la|De veritate religionis Christianae}}.second son died – has this not been mentioned already?After the death of his wife – seems redundant, and so can be edited out.- '
'in Constantinople – amend to ‘there’ to improve the prose slightly. was targeted for persecution - ‘was persecuted’ sounds better imo.Can this be subdivided to help readers?Link Poghos Gharadaghtsi (Poghos Gharadaghtsi ); folk songs (Armenian folk music); deacon; Ottoman (Ottoman Empire); scholarship; master's degree; clerical (Clergy); missionaries; peddler; pedagogical (Pedagogy); diaspora (Armenian diaspora); novel; seminary; monks.
