Re: Name of Pilovese in other languages

I like "Pilovese."  It puts me in mind of an operetta.  "My Lady, the
Pilovese ambassador is here."  Rather like the Grand Duchy of Fenwick!

I'll hazard some guesses:

Hebrew: pilovi, pilovith
Swahili: kipilova
Haitian Creole: pilove (analogous to franse and angle)
Rumanian: pilovetse (there should be a comma under the s)
Hungarian: pilovul
Ecclesiastical Latin: (lingua) pilovica

Senjecan: if the name of the country is Pilova, then pilôvmhas.  If
the name of the country is Pilovia, then pilôvïmhas.  The
construction is based on the adjectival suffix `mhis' = pertaining
to, used as an abstract noun in –mhas.  (mh = /m_0/)
