Why no mention of Fuggi, fuggi, fuggi/ La Mantovana[edit]

On wiki there's no link between the song and the children's tune, but it's it's referenced everywhere else. It's mentioned in Roots of the Classical: The Popular Origins of Western Music, page 104, by Peter Van der Merwe, if you need a written reference. 2.104.41.248 (talk) 23:38, 13 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

La Mantovana is not mentioned at Ah! vous dirai-je, maman because it's not mentioned at the former. The melodies are very different, especially in their major/minor mode and their use of anacrusis, or lack of it. Can you quote an authority that supports the similarity? -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 02:59, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Title and Tense[edit]

Shouldn’t this be ‘Ah! Vous dirais-je, maman’, or else be translated in the future tense (‘Ah! I shall tell you, mummy’)? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.98.25.70 (talk) 20:09, 6 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
