Copy/edit and Grammar edit

i worked on copy/editing and fixing the bad grammar i found in this page. i also tagged it incase i missed some other mistakes. i have 3 suggestions for someone more knowledgeable in this area than i am: 1) what language were the 2 words 'til' and 'donk' from? dutch? flemish? walloon? 2) i put the dutch word 'stadsreus' and gave my translation of 'city giants', but the correct english word needs to be put in here (if it exists). the Commons article for 'giants' talks about the folk tradition of "giants" and that's the word they use, so i used it here. but the equivalent english article uses the spanish word. perhaps after Commons agrees upon a correct title, and the english article also (view the 'Gigantes y Cabezudos' article's discuss page), then it needs to be fixed here too. 3) wut the heck is a 'flower village'? ive never heard of it, but maybe its cuz they dont use that term here in the US. if anyone knows about #1 and #3, fix them here. then go voice your opinion on #2 and come back here later to update as needed.
