Non-ProZ.com Apr 7, 2004:
By asking about the Czech name of the Mercy Bay I had in mind some established name which somebody might be familiar with from a map or a book about polar explorers. Never mind if there is not. However I can assure you I know what is a bay and what means mercy. The more, I also know where it is. So, sorry to say, your answer was not at all helpful.

I did not have any doubts about your knowledge of bay or ........

Mozem k tomu dodat len tolko, ako som uviedla v prvej odpovedi: neprekladala by som to, lebo zemepisne nazvy, sa neprekladaju.
