Names of Kosovo
The name ''Kosovo'' (as referred to in this spelling) is the most frequently used form in English when discussing the region in question. The Albanian spelling ''Kosova'' has lesser currency. The alternative spellings ''Cossovo'' and ''Kossovo'' were frequently used until the early 20th century〔("Kossovo" ). Volume V15, Page 916 of the 1911 ''Encyclopædia Britannica''〕
==Kosovo==
Albanian usage may contain the definite article, as such it varies (''Kosova'' vs. ''Kosovë''). The question does not arise in Serbian, which has no definite article.
Kosovo (Serbian Cyrillic: Косово, pronounced ) is the Serbian neuter possessive adjective of ''kos'' (кос) "blackbird", an ellipsis for ''Kosovo Polje'' "field of the blackbirds", the site of the 1389 Battle of Kosovo Field. The name of the field was applied to an Ottoman province created in 1864. In Greek the full name of the historical region is ''Kossyfopèdio'' meaning field (-pèdio) of the blackbirds (Kossyfi-).
The use of these spelling variants is a highly sensitive political issue for both Serbs and Albanians, who regard the use of the other side's name as being a denial of their own side's territorial rights.
