I need to suppress some language-specific adaptations babel
and biblatex
produce from my .bib
-entries.
This is the relevant part of my header
\documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[
style=authoryear-icomp,
maxnames=2,
backend=bibtex,
safeinputenc,]{biblatex}
Now
@book(Platts,
key={Platts},
author={John T. Platts},
title={A Grammar of the Urd\=u or Hind\=ust\=an\={\i} Language},
publisher={Crosby Lockwood and Son},
address={London},
year={1920},
)
produces
Platts, John T. (1920): A Grammar of the Urdu or Hindustani Language. London: Crosby Lockwood und Son.
(macrons in the right place, no worries about that).
How do I prevent biblatex
from changing "and" to "und" in the publisher field?
I've tried the language
and origlanguage
fields, but they only work if babel=english
is loaded, and when I do that, the whole bibliography style changes to English.
