I changed this article to the most popular spelling available. Kolomeyka like kolomeike is an alteration of original root of the word, possibly due to differences in dialect, and use of the word in different languages. Kolomyjka is the spelling I found to be the most prevalent. --tufkaa 21:14, 18 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

I read that the kolomyjka originated in Canada. Uh oh. Mrrria 11:50, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Seriously? Where did you read that? It is named after Kolomyia and was incredibly popular in its three different forms, spreading rapidly throughout present-day western Ukraine.

BTW, I don't know if there is a way to comment on your site but it is also full of mistakes. Shkarpetkee? That is a bastardization of an Italian word at best. There are costuming dictionaries available from Ukraine.--tufkaa 14:51, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I don't doubt that you're right. I believe I read it in a Shumka reference manual, and who knows where they got it from. I will try to look it up. And thanks about the costume thing. I'll try to fix it. I got that info here. Mrrria 22:29, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
