Apsolutno ste u pravu Daniela http://www.helium.com/items/397340-the-history-and-function-...
The history and function of the cupola as an architectural detail
The cupola (Latin for "little dome") is a form of dome, a structure of efficiency and strength.
Daniela Slankamenac Apr 16, 2011:
Ja sam dodala "cupola" kao odgovor jer me "dome" asocira na nešto veće, naročito ako se setimo da se cela katedrala u Firenci npr. cesto naziva "Duomo". Pozdrav.

Nema na čemu i drugi put. :) Drago mi je ukoliko sam pomogla da dođete do pravog rešenja.
Vesna Maširević (asker) Apr 16, 2011:
Puno hvala jos jednom! Vec mi je lakse kad vidim da pitanje i nije tako lako! Uglavnom se trudim da se ne oslanjam na reci koriscene na sajtovima koji nisu 'izvorno' engleski ali u nedostatku boljeg resenja, posluzice 'steeple with 3 cupolas' (jer moj toranj nije ni dome-like)

Primer http://www.pauldrobertson.net/p663357726/h25E86413#h25e86413 Three Onion Domes in Sunlight
The sun glistens off the silver crosses atop this church steeple's three onion domes.
To je tačno taj problem.
Mada, ukoliko uz vaš tekst ide i fotografija tog tornja mislim da bi možda i moglo da se prevede kao "3 cupolas": http://www.tyrol.tl/en/tyrols-holiday-areas/innsbruck-and-su... the recently restored bulbous spire is the only steeple of Tyrol that has got three onion-domes! Molim vas pogledajte fotografiju tog tornja na dnu navedene stranice. BTW, na slici koju ste naveli se ne radi o "onion domes", prehodno sam navela samo kao primer.
Mira Stepanovic Apr 16, 2011:
Potpuno ste u pravu I ja sam razmišljala o tome i pokušavala da pronađem primer ali za sada bez uspeha. :( Možda opisno, "3 cupolas on three levels" - ali to mi je jako rogobatno. Možda će neko ponuditi bolje rešenje.
Vesna Maširević (asker) Apr 16, 2011:
(c)kupola Da ali... moze li jedan steeple imati 3 cupolas? Kada se kaze da nesto ima tri kupole obicno (kao i u ovde pomenutim citatima) je to nesto ovako http://l.thumbs.canstockphoto.com/canstock3740767.jpg

(Hvala svima! Vec danima proucavam cupola i dome... )

Jednina je "kube".

cupola

A belfry with a small steeple and a cupola were simply added to the church named in honour of Peter 1st’s holy patron.

CUPOLA - The steeple domes found on most Orthodox churches. There may be one cupola or as many as thirteen. Three cupolas symbolize the Most-Holy Trinity.
