|
Note: Entrance porches in early basilican churches, and for interior vestibules across the western end of later churches. For narthexlike spaces at the west end of some English and French Romanesque and Gothic churches, often used as chapels, prefer "galilees." |

Additional Notes: |
|
Arabic ..... شرفات المدخل في الكنائس البازيليكية المبكرة، وللردهات الداخلية عبر الطرف الغربي للكنائس اللاحقة. بالنسبة للمساحات التي تشبه المدافن في الطرف الغربي لبعض الكنائس الرومانية والقوطية الإنجليزية والفرنسية، والتي غالبًا ما تستخدم كمصليات، تفضل "الجليل". |
Dutch ..... Westportalen van vroeg-christelijke basilica's, en westelijke ingangsportalen van latere kerken. Gebruik 'galilea's' voor voorkerken aan de westkant van sommige grote kloosterkerken uit de 10e tot 12e eeuw. |
German ..... Eingangsportal früher Basiliken sowie die Binnenvorhalle an der Westseite späterer Kirchen. Für narthexähnliche Räume an der Westseite einiger englischer und französischer romanischer und gotischer, häufig als Kapellen genutzter Kirchen siehe bevorzugt ["Galiläa (Kirchenraum)"](300253484). |
Portuguese ..... Pórticos de entrada nas primeiras igrejas basílicas e para vestíbulos interiores na extremidade oeste das igrejas posteriores. Para espaços semelhantes a nártex no extremo oeste de algumas igrejas românicas e góticas inglesas e francesas, muitas vezes usadas como capelas, prefira "galiléias". |
