  • Ta Zagatina. Zagata is a name of the alpine farm in mountains above the main village in Resia Valley. "Zagatina" is a possesive meaning "Zagata's" and "ta" gives a meaning of definitness: "The Zagata's (Song)". The construction is Slavic with people from Resia being the westernmost Slavic people in Europe. Resia valley also directly borders on Slovenia.
