Videm Pri Temenici
Videm pri Temenici (pronounced [ˈʋiːdəm pɾi ˈteːmɛnitsi]) is a small settlement in the Municipality of Ivančna Gorica in central Slovenia. It lies above the valley of the Temenica River in the historical region of Lower Carniola. The municipality is now included in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region.
Name
The name of the settlement was changed from Videm to Videm pri Temenici (literally, 'Videm near Temenica') in 1953. The name Videm comes from the Slovene common noun videm 'church property', borrowed from Middle High German videme 'church property' (originally, 'property left by the deceased to the church').
