Hola,
El título de este ejercicio indica que el nombre del rey mago es "Melchior" pero el texto usa una ortografía diferente de "Melchor."
¿Hay una diferencia?
Saludos

Melchor o Melchior?

Hola John y Clara,
The spelling in Spanish for the Three Wise Men are: Melchor, Gaspar andBaltasar.
I believe their English names are spelled differently:
Casper, Balthazar, and Melchior

HI John,
I'm so pleased that you've asked this question as I had planned to ask the very same.
My surname is Melchor. In Spain although it is a surname, it's more commonly used as a christian name.
Like you,I have always thought that one of the 3 kings was 'Melcior'. I'm sure that the team will explain for us... I'm thinking that perhaps 'Melchor' is simply the Spanish spelling.
Great question! :)
Saludos y Feliz año nuevo
Clara
