RIP: problem je, ze tady ho trosku meni. sam povazuji preklad "mestska legenda" za pomerne zavedeny, ale eztra spokojeny s nim nejsem. Pokud chces argumenty, mrkni se na prislusna hesla z OED, vyberove:
starsi obecnejsi termin:
urban folklore
n. orig. and chiefly U.S. the folklore of contemporary industrialized societies; urban legends collectively.
a konkretne:
urban legend
n. orig. U.S. a sensational but apocryphal story which through repetition in varying versions has acquired the status of folklore, esp. one lent plausibility by its contemporary setting, or by the purported involvement of someone known to the teller.
