Talk:Bora (wind)

Latest comment: 2 years ago by Surtsicna in topic Serbo-Croatian

Bora is not a katabatic wind (in a sense that katabatic wind implies fall wind), it is downslope wind, it is not thermodynamicaly driven but kinematicaly (i.e. it is driven by the compression of the isentropes by the gravity-wave breaking in the middle troposphere), and it exhibits hydraulic like behavior. I am planing to heavily review this article. --Luksa 17:48, 30 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Catabatic winds are downslope winds. But the above doubletalk was not intended to be taken seriously. My question is, whether the catabatic winds that also occur in Novorossiysk are called bora. If not, the note at the foot of the article should be moved to Catabatic wind, and expanded. --Wetman 05:19, 24 July 2006 (UTC)--WetmanReply
I've located the 1876 article by Baron F. von Wrangel, but is the link with Ferdinand von Wrangel a mistaken link? My poor contributions to this article need vetting.--Wetman (talk) 21:45, 27 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Serbo-Croatian

edit

The language label "Serbo-Croatian" is appropriate in the text (see this edit) because the lexeme bura is clearly found in Serbian (cf. here and other sources here). Doremo (talk) 19:59, 17 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Let´s do it in a NPOV way, then everybody will be happy--Croq (talk) 17:44, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply

Yes, and referring to the language as Serbo-Croatian is perfectly NPOV. Except that when it is called Serbo-Croatian, nationalists on all sides are unhappy. This has been discussed ad nauseam at Talk:Serbo-Croatian. I suggest that further nationalist grievances be directed there, for this article is about a meteorological phenomenon.

Agreed. The contributor Croq is arguing over the term Serbo-Croatian, not the topic of this article (bora), and Talk:Serbo-Croatian is the proper venue for that discussion. Doremo (talk) 18:55, 18 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Croq
First of all, Serbo-croatian language ceased to exist in 1991, now we are talking in terms of Croatian and Serbian languages. If you are keen to promote Yugoslavia or anything that goes with that failed system go to SH Wiki, don't bother us with your problems!
Second, Bura only exist in Croatia and Montenegro as a wind that blow over the Adriatic Coast. Bura doesn't exist in Serbia, and they use Croatian word for it.
So correct term is "Croatian language" VelikiMeshtar (talk) 15:54, 17 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Neither of those things is true. Thanks for your input though. Surtsicna (talk) 22:52, 18 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Everything what VelikiMeshtar says is truth. You are now using the method what is using Putin: No ukrainian language, no ukraininan language exists. shame. --Croq (talk) 10:30, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hah. Okay. Surtsicna (talk) 18:40, 26 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
