I am writing this for someone who is not a member of
SEELANGS, in fact does not teach in the Slavic area. He is
a high school history teacher who wants to teach his
students the words to the pre-Revolutionary Russian anthem.
In checking the internet, he has found versions that differ
in the preposition governing the accusative form
for "glory/slavu" At times he sees "vo" and in other
instances "na" as the governing preposition. He would like
to know which is the correct or more appropriate phrasing.
Plese send any responses to me at <gsabo at jcu.edu> and I will
forward them to him. Thanks for all your help-Jerry Sabo.
