Talk:Casbah

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

why does the link to the german tranlsation not direct to "Kasbah", but to "alkazaba", even if the german article "Kasbah" is existing?

I would like to inform you that "AL" in arabic means "the", and that "casbah" is closer to the dialect pronunciation than "kazaba".

Besides, the article focuses on Algeria's casbah even as if the concept of "casbah" is originally from there, which might give a wrong impression to the readers. Also, I will try to find accurate information on Tunis' casbah. It has been described by many French cultivated colons during their visits to Tunisia's capital during the second half of the 19th century. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nadoudidou (talk • contribs) 01:55, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
