This article contains a translation of Frydag (Adelsgeschlecht) from de.wikipedia. |
The phrase
Imperial representative at the Lower Saxony circle.
What does that mean. It comes from the Frydag article, down next to the bullet list: Haro Burchhard Also what does this mean: kurbrandenburgischen court in Berlin which is done at the bottom of the articles.
It encompasses German to English and German aristocratic history. Thanks. scope_creep ( talk) 14:08, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

In the last section, specifically in the one about Franz Heinrich, the Margraviate of Brandenburg is 'Markgrafschaft Brandenburg' in german. Kurbrandenburg was an alternate name denoting that it was an electorate. Not sure if i am just reading it wrong but it looks a tiny bit odd to me as is because Kurbrandenburg does not translate to the margraviate but the title of prince-elector. How about you say "... was from 1656 appointed as an ambassador to the court of the principality of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (German: Markgrafschaft Brandenburg) in Berlin.". Alternatively one could say "... was from 1656 appointed as an ambassador to the court (of the principality;maybe cut that out even) of the Electorate of Brandenburg (German: Kurfürstentum Brandenburg) in Berlin.". The latter may be better because an elector was a more prestigious position than a mere margrave as far as i know. And another minor thing in the next sentence, it may read better if you cut out Imperial Circles here "one of the Imperial Circles of the administrative groupings in the Holy Roman Empire" and just link to it with the administative groupings so that it reads as "...one of the administrative groupings in the Holy Roman Empire". Sorry for being a critic and feel free to ignore my ramblings, just thought i would share my thoughts about that section haha. Have a good day anyway 91.49.80.68 ( talk) 18:35, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
