Sobor, Hungary ?: new section
Line 6: Line 6:


It seems to me that, in addition to the word's regular meaning the [[Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada]] uses the term ''sobor'' to mean a large church serving a wide area that is not a cathedral. For example in Alberta they have St. John Cathedral and St. Andrew "Sobor" (both in Edmonton) and in Saskatchewan they have Holy Trinity Cathedral in Saskatoon and Descent Of The Holy Spirit "Sobor" in Regina (see: http://www.uocc.ca/en-ca/parishes/search.asp). Am I understanding this right? Do other orthdox churches use the term this way? --[[User:Kevlar67|Kevlar]] <small>([[User talk:Kevlar67|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Kevlar67|contribs]])</small> 16:36, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

== Sobor, Hungary ? ==

@ShelfSkewed Hungarian is not a Slavic language (or even an Indo-European language) so is [[Sobor, Hungary]] an example of "a word in [[Slavic language]]s"? Looking in an on-language dictionary, there is a Hungarian word "sobor" which means "statue".

Other uses of term

It seems to me that, in addition to the word's regular meaning the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada uses the term sobor to mean a large church serving a wide area that is not a cathedral. For example in Alberta they have St. John Cathedral and St. Andrew "Sobor" (both in Edmonton) and in Saskatchewan they have Holy Trinity Cathedral in Saskatoon and Descent Of The Holy Spirit "Sobor" in Regina (see: http://www.uocc.ca/en-ca/parishes/search.asp).
