Rapa Nui misspelled
Hi, You recently granted me translation right for English to Rapa Nui, and I thank you for that. I'm still trying to get the hang of this system, so I still don't fully understand it. Though, I saw on a page that the title isn't correct, and I'm suspecting that it's because of the language information in the system. Please take a look at this page: http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Portal:Rap Regarding the line "rap Vananga Rapa nui (Rapanui)": "Vananga Rapa Nui" is supposed to refer to the language of Rapa Nui, but it's not correct. Vananga (which is actually "Vanaga" when writing, since Rapa Nui doesn't have the English "g"-sound; only "-ng") means "the speaking" of something. The actual word for "language" is 'arero. Please, tell me how to make the change, or change "Vananga Rapa Nui" yourself to "'arero rapa nui" (no capitals, as opposed to English). Also, the "Rapanui" at the end (referring to where it is written as a single word) is wrong. It is two words - "Rapa Nui". Thank you.
I took the autonym from the article on the language in the English language Wikipedia. You might want to make corrections there. Btw, the autonym I chose appears to be dominant on the internet, outweighing your suggestion at least 10:1.
Ok, thanks for mentioning that - fixed it on the English page. I know that most people use it, but it's still wrong. Because of Chilean influences, much of the correct Rapa Nui grammar and words are getting lost, which is why I decided to request a Rapa Nui wiki. Though, there are also some ambitious people who try to set an example by speaking well, to teach and motivate the youngsters, which is btw why I'm sure that a Rapa Nui wiki would be very sucessful. Most youngsters refer to the language as "Vanaga Rapa Nui", but it's informal and actually incorrect.
