Serbian term or phrase: Istočnik

Iz naslova knjige
'Sa Balkanskih Istočnika'
Takodje, autor pravi razliku izmedju 'istocnici' i 'izvori', iako su ta dva termina sinonimi.
Hvala unapred.

U Rečniku srpskohrvatskog (srpskog) književnog i narodnog jezika SANU se za odrednicu 'istočnik' navodi „zast. i pokr. 1. v. izvor.“ Delo svetog Jovana Damaskina „The Fountain of Wisdom“ ili „Fountain of Knowledge“ je na srpski prevedeno kao „Istočnik znanja“. Znači da se može upotrebiti ili 'fountain' ili 'faunt' (izraz koji je i pesnički obojen) ukoliko se želi istaći razlika u značenju. Mada je i Johnovo rešenje prihvatljivo. :)

jednostavno, na ovaj izraz sam nailazio uvek kada bih trazio nesto vezano za istocnike.
