Okay, reading through now. I will jot some notes as I go. Casliber (talk · contribs) 06:40, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They were believed to have been brought by supernatural forces, which had been represented in various ways - I don't get "which had been represented in various ways" here.
eastern Herzegovina, part of Bosnia, and Sandžak - do you mean eastern Herzegovina is in part of Bosnia, or are they two different localities? thanks for clearing it up.

Thanks for reviewing the article.

  1. In folk beliefs, adverse weather could be brought by various supernatural forces, such as God, angels, saints, the Devil, an ala, mentioned in the sentences that immediately follow. Actually, that part "which had been represented in various ways" can be removed without any damage.
  2. They are two different localities. Herzegovina and Bosnia are two separate regions. Zduhać is recorded in the folklore of Serbs of only a part of Bosnia, while it is absent from the folklore in other areas of the region. My sources don't specify which part is that, though it could be generally concluded that it is eastern Bosnia. Vladimir (talk) 16:09, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about delay - just make sure all foreign words not used in English are in italics. Otherwise looking good. Are there any folklore drawings or illustrations?

Thank you, Casliber! As for the folklore illustrations, I'm not aware of any related to this subject. I've added several images, though, which may have some relevance. Is it any better? Vladimir (talk) 17:35, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, they help. Casliber (talk · contribs) 19:10, 7 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
