Note[edit]

I launched this piece and then discovered an essentially unsourced orphan as Narodnoye Pravo when I was linking up to the Russian WP article. I've boldly changed this to a redirect here, since I will be writing fresh from sources. Apologies for the blanking and loss of that history ([1]) but I had already made the start before I discovered the fork. Carrite (talk) 16:47, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Народ = Folk, alike the german "volk"[edit]

Or atleast this is how i see it. The books refer to it "The people's party", which is rather sad. Welso (talk) 17:49, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Welso: this is because "people's" as had already been used in English was the equivalent of how "narodni" (in all of its grammatical cases) was used in Slavic languages. If everything had been translated literally, word-for-word, it wouldn't sound well. Why do you think it's sad? In any case, your opinion that it's sad is irrelevant for Wikipedia. –Vipz (talk) 10:14, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
its just an irrelevant complaint about the energy that word gives. When you say "peoples", or atleast when I say it, I imagine the muscular red labourer from the Soviet agitation, meanwhile I say "folk" my head draws an image of a russian peasant, Leon Tolstoy or at the very end Tom Bombadil and the Hobbits, with the last series of things being much closer to what a Narodnik cares of and holds dear to his heart.
