Comment: "Kolegice, hvala Vam puno na Vasem prijedlogu, a hvala i kolegici Miriani na njenom. Uzimam slobodu i kombiniram oba u "starched gown" jer, prema jednoj od referenci koje sam nasao na internetu, ta jezicka kombinacija u potpunosti odgovara vremenskom periodu: http://www.caithness.org/history/articles/christiancouper.htm
Hvala svima na trudu i prijedlozima!"
