Translation
[edit]"Werk ohne Opuszahl" means "work without Opus" in German, not "work without Opus number". Bowlhover 00:30, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- Well, as a German native speaker I am pretty sure :-). "Zahl" means "number" and "Opus" means the same as the english "opus", namely a "work of art". And what should a "work without work" be? That really makes no sense. --mst 14:37, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- Silly me. A website said that "Werk ohne Opuszahl" means "work without Opus", so I just believed it. I knew that zahl means number, but didn't realize that Opuszahl is a combination of two words. Bowlhover 20:34, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
Other Composers
[edit]Works by composers other than Beethoven are cataloged as "WoO" -- Brahms' Hungarian Dances, e.g., are WoO 1. Rick lightburn (talk) 05:18, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Title
[edit]Pretty sure Beethoven should not be in parentheses in the title.
- I just fixed it in the disambiguation page, too. 71.34.93.226 (talk) 23:00, 29 November 2020 (UTC) Hyrum
