I have a strange problem for which I’m not even sure how to provide a minimal example.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I’m working on a paper which has references in a number of languages, so my preamble calls babel</div>
<div>
<blockquote type="cite">\usepackage[english, german, french, polish, swedish]{babel}</blockquote>
I originally had mainly german and french references (other than english) and so the original version of this command listed only german and french.</div>
<div>Recently, though, I noticed that the heading for my references is not “References” but “Referenser” which I first assumed was German now realize it is more likely Swedish (“reference” is “Referenz” in German but “Referens” in Swedish, and besides the German
word is masculine so its plural ends in “-en" </div>
<div>not “-er").</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In any case the heading is wrong. I tried putting english first in the babel options, but that didn’t help. Then I trashed my aux files but it didn’t help.</div>
<div>I went and put my .bbl file in trash and that didn’t help. What other options do I have to correct the heading? I’m using latex and the article document class</div>
<div>
<blockquote type="cite">
<div>% !TEX TS-program = latex</div>
<div>\documentclass{article} </div>
</blockquote>
