Talk:Emilio Estefan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Clean Up
This page needs some serious clean up and referencing. I removed the previous text in spanish. I read what the person had posted and it was not relevant to the talk page or the article. It was mostly about the person him or herself and more than likely spam, whatever the case, this page needs clean up.--BaRiMzI 03:42, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Page Moved
I moved the page to it's current page, Emilio Estéfan, Jr. in order to match the man's name. Emilio Estefan, Jr. is an incorrect spelling.--BaRiMzI 19:54, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Requested move: Estefan vs. Estéfan
Concerning stress and accentuation in Spanish orthography:
- a word is stressed on the penultimate syllable if it ends in a vowel, n or s. If a word is not stressed in accordance with the above rule, the written accent indicates the syllable where the emphasis is to be placed. --The Oxford Spanish Dictionary
In this particular case, the stress is on the default penultimate syllable requiring no written accent. Estéfan is an example of hypercorrection. Oskarg956 18:44, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
