Everyday Usage

[edit]

It says:

The word "crone" is a less common synonym for "old woman," and is more likely to appear in reference to traditional narratives than in contemporary everyday usage.

Really? Because if someone said "old crone," I think it would be quite well understood what was being implied, without any sort of reference to fairy-tales. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.221.141.21 (talk) 07:17, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Baba Yaga's picture here is an absourd comic picture. This artist is quite popular on russian Internet sites and there are a lot of pictures in the same style about modern characters, such as Neo and Morpheus from Matrix and Alucard from Hellsing. In folklore tales there are no crocodiles, Baba Yaga doesn't ride a pig and usually doesn't fight against Otherworld's creatures (see Baba Yaga's article). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.178.95.182 (talk) 12:08, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
