List of Hungarian Exonyms András Dutkó List of Hungarian exonyms András Dutkó This list comprises more than 800 Hungarian geographical names of geographical features situated partially or totally outside Hungary. These names differ from the standardized names used in the countries concerned. All of these exonyms are widely accepted in Hungary and are universally used in Hungarian press. Native Hungarian speakers are unlikely to use the standardized names instead of these exonyms. In territories that historically belonged to Hungary, virtually all settlements and most major physical features have Hungarian names, usually different from the official name. This list includes only a selection of these names. In Hungarian practice, geographical names from countries that don’t use Roman script are usually transcripted phonetically (Moszkva, Bászra, Csengtu). Such names are not listed here, unless there is a widely accepted name version different from both the phonetic and the standardized transcription (Peking instead of Pejcsing or Beijing, Szentpétervár instead of Szankt-Petyerburg or Sankt Peterburg). In some cases, exonyms used in other languages were borrowed to Hungarian language (Strassburg for Strasbourg, Nizza for Nice). Names belonging to the following categories are not included in the list: —obsolete exonyms meaningless for most Hungarian speakers (Biriny as a name for Brno) —casual translations of geographical names, used in some maps and atlases (Kúszósül-folyó for Porcupine River) —names where only the generic term is translated (Arafura-tenger) and where an –i affix is attached to the specific term (San Franciscói-öböl).

  • Is 'Exonym' an Appropriate Term for Names of Features Beyond Any Sovereignty?
    UNITED NATIONS WORKING PAPER GROUP OF EXPERTS NO. 65 ON GEOGRAPHICAL NAMES Twenty-sixth session Vienna, 2-6 May 2011 Item 14 of the provisional agenda Activities relating to the Working Group on Exonyms Is 'exonym' an appropriate term for names of features beyond any sovereignty? Submitted by Austria∗ ∗ Prepared by Peter Jordan (Austria), Austrian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Urban and Regional Research, and Austrian Board on Geographical Names Abstract This papers deals with the question, whether the term exonym covers also features beyond any sovereignty such as international waters. It discusses first Naftali KADMON’s view (expressed in E/CONF.98/ 6/Add.1 presented at the Ninth United Nations Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names, New York, 21 - 30 August 2007), who argues that maritime names in a certain language were endonyms in these parts of a sea, over which a country in which this language is official or well-established exerts some kind of jurisdiction, i.e. its territorial waters. Names in languages not corresponding to the requirements of being official or well-established in this country will be termed exonyms. For KADMON it “follows that there is a need for a new term to be added to the Glossary of Terms for the Standardization of Geographical Names, namely the status of a toponym for a maritime feature in international waters.” th The paper then refers then to Paul WOODMAN’s view (expressed a.o. in WP 1, 25 UNGEGN Session Nairobi 2009) that one name in one language for one feature cannot change in terminological status, cannot simultaneously be an endonym and an exonym, which means that all languages official or well-established in the coastal countries of a sea are endonyms all over the feature.

  • In What Follows, We Are Going to Ask a Number of Questions Concerning The
    'DONGHAE', 'NIHON KAI', 'SEA OF JAPAN' OR 'EAST SEA': IS IT A QUESTION OF QUALIFICATION AND CATEGORIZATION IN EXONYM, ENDONYM, ALLONYM, OR TRANSLATED NAME? Brahim ATOUI Vice Chair, United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names, Algeria INTRODUCTION: In what follows, we are going to ask a number of questions concerning the classification of exonyms, endonyms or allonyms regarding the name of the sea between Japan and Korea, known internationally as the 'Sea of Japan '. Is the problem of this sea naming a matter of qualification of exonym, endonym, allonym or translated name as it was recently found particularly in the relevant recorded publications or is it a completely different question? We will try not to answer this question, but rather to make other questions that we hope will raise interest. BRIEF OF THE GENESIS: We're not going to dwell too much on the genesis of the sea naming’ problem, its origins or the legitimacy associated with the prior art and the use of a particular name in comparison to another one. Works on this subject are very abundant and sufficiently discussed, especially during the UNGEGN meetings since the 90 and during the 17th international seminar on sea and oceans names devoted exclusively, at least during the early years, on this subject. We only recall and point out that because of short-term circumstances related to some particular historical events (Colonization, International Cartography especially the Western one, absence of Korea at the international scene in the first half of last century etc.). The name of 'Sea of Japan’’ was adopted at the international level.

  • Peter Jordan Abstract ***** 1. Introduction Apart From
    ONOMÀSTICA BIBLIOTECA TÈCNICA DE POLÍTICA LINGÜÍSTICA Up to What Point is a Place Name a “Name from Within”? Peter Jordan DOI: 10.2436/15.8040.01.188 Abstract Apart from all institutional definitions of the endonym and the exonym as, e.g., the latest definitions given by the UNGEGN Glossary of Toponymic Terms in 2007, the endonym/exonym divide is basically and most generally speaking a divide between names applied by a social group for geographical features conceived to be part of the area where this group lives and to which it feels to be emotionally attached and names applied by other social groups for this same area. Much depends therefore on to which extent social groups feel to be emotionally attached to larger geographical features such as mountain ranges, streams and seas, regard them as a part of their living sphere and not as attached to nobody or another group. In other words, it is the question, whether or inhowfar a social group refers to a feature as part of its “place” in the meaning of Yi-Fu Tuan (1977). Where is it, e.g., that a line is drawn between “one’s own” and “the other” on seas? Is the high sea - far beyond the horizon from the coast - still conceived to be part of the “place” of a coastal dweller community? Is it even a coastal water at the opposite side of the sea? Is a mountain range like the Alps or the Rocky Mountains more than a spatial construct? Do people inhabiting the one end of the range feel emotionally attached to all parts of it, even to very remote places at the other end - just because it is conceived to be the same feature and has a common name in geographical literature? And how is it with countries? Obviously, citizens feel to be attached to the whole country as a concept.

  • Glottal Stop Initials and Nasalization in Sino-Vietnamese and Southern Chinese
    Glottal Stop Initials and Nasalization in Sino-Vietnamese and Southern Chinese Grainger Lanneau A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Washington 2020 Committee: Zev Handel William Boltz Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Asian Languages and Literature ©Copyright 2020 Grainger Lanneau University of Washington Abstract Glottal Stop Initials and Nasalization in Sino-Vietnamese and Southern Chinese Grainger Lanneau Chair of Supervisory Committee: Professor Zev Handel Asian Languages and Literature Middle Chinese glottal stop Ying [ʔ-] initials usually develop into zero initials with rare occasions of nasalization in modern day Sinitic1 languages and Sino-Vietnamese. Scholars such as Edwin Pullyblank (1984) and Jiang Jialu (2011) have briefly mentioned this development but have not yet thoroughly investigated it. There are approximately 26 Sino-Vietnamese words2 with Ying- initials that nasalize. Scholars such as John Phan (2013: 2016) and Hilario deSousa (2016) argue that Sino-Vietnamese in part comes from a spoken interaction between Việt-Mường and Chinese speakers in Annam speaking a variety of Chinese called Annamese Middle Chinese AMC, part of a larger dialect continuum called Southwestern Middle Chinese SMC. Phan and deSousa also claim that SMC developed into dialects spoken 1 I will use the terms “Sinitic” and “Chinese” interchangeably to refer to languages and speakers of the Sinitic branch of the Sino-Tibetan language family. 2 For the sake of simplicity, I shall refer to free and bound morphemes alike as “words.” 1 in Southwestern China today (Phan, Desousa: 2016). Using data of dialects mentioned by Phan and deSousa in their hypothesis, this study investigates initial nasalization in Ying-initial words in Southwestern Chinese Languages and in the 26 Sino-Vietnamese words.

  • Historical Collections of Vascular Plants in the Korean Peninsula by Three Major Collectors in the Early 20Th Century:U. J. Faur

Not peer-reviewed, not copy-edited manuscript posted on March 25, 2021. DOI: https://doi.org/10.3897/arphapreprints.e66483 Historical collections of vascular plants in the Korean Peninsula by three major collectors in the early 20th century: U. J. Faurie, E. J. Taquet, and E. H. Wilson Chin-Sung Chang‡, Shin Young Kwon‡§, Hui Kim ‡ Seoul National University, Seoul, South Korea § Mokpo National University, Muan, South Korea Corresponding author: Hui Kim ([email protected]) Abstract Background The digitization of historical collections aims to increase global access to scientific artifacts, especially those from currently inaccessible areas. Historical collections from North Korea deposited at foreign herbaria play a fundamental role in biodiversity transformation patterns. However, the biodiversity pattern distribution in this region remains poorly understood given the severe gaps in available geographic species distribution records. Access to a dominant proportion of primary biodiversity data remains difficult for the broader scientific and environmental community. The digitization of foreign collectors’ botanical collections of around 60,000 specimens from the Korean Peninsula before World War II is ongoing. In this paper, we aim to fill this gap by developing the first comprehensive, open-access database of biodiversity records for the Korean Peninsula. This paper provides a quantitative and general description of the specimens that Urbain Jean Faurie, Emile Joseph Taquet, and Ernest Henry Wilson kept in several herbaria.

  • Dictionary of Slovenian Exonyms Explanatory Notes
    GEOGRAFSKI INŠTITUT ANTONA MELIKA ZNANSTVENORAZISKOVALNI CENTER SLOVENSKE AKADEMIJE ZNANOSTI IN UMETNOSTI ANTON MELIK GEOGRAPHICAL INSTITUTE OF ZRC SAZU DICTIONARY OF SLOVENIAN EXONYMS EXPLANATORY NOTES Drago Kladnik Drago Perko AMGI ZRC SAZU Ljubljana 2013 1 Preface The geocoded collection of Slovenia exonyms Zbirka slovenskih eksonimov and the dictionary of Slovenina exonyms Slovar slovenskih eksonimov have been set up as part of the research project Slovenski eksonimi: metodologija, standardizacija, GIS (Slovenian Exonyms: Methodology, Standardization, GIS). They include more than 5,000 of the most frequently used exonyms that were collected from more than 50,000 documented various forms of these types of geographical names. The dictionary contains thirty-four categories and has been designed as a contribution to further standardization of Slovenian exonyms, which can be added to on an ongoing basis and used to find information on Slovenian exonym usage. Currently, their use is not standardized, even though analysis of the collected material showed that the differences are gradually becoming smaller. The standardization of public, professional, and scholarly use will allow completely unambiguous identification of individual features and items named. By determining the etymology of the exonyms included, we have prepared the material for their final standardization, and by systematically documenting them we have ensured that this important aspect of the Slovenian language will not sink into oblivion. The results of this research will not only help preserve linguistic heritage as an important aspect of Slovenian cultural heritage, but also help preserve national identity. Slovenian exonyms also enrich the international treasury of such names and are undoubtedly important part of the world’s linguistic heritage.

  • C12.36 Toponymy
    ICA/IGU Working Group/Commission on Toponymy Activities of the new Joint ICA/IGU Working Group/Commission on Toponymy during the last two years 2012-2013 The Commission For some years, during the sessions of the UNGEGN (United Nations of Groups of Experts on Geographical Names), several topics on toponymy have been discussed. In a prestigious venue like this some scholars, Cosimo Palagiano, Helen Kerfoot, Peter Jordan, Georg Gartner and others proposed to establish a Commission of Toponymy, which would study the Geographical names from the point of view both of geography and cartography. The geographical names are the object of study of many bodies, the same UNGEGN, the ICOS (International Council of Onomastic Sciences) and many other conferences have been held in many countries on Geographic Names. During the 30th General Assembly of ICSU held in FAO Rome (27-30 September 2011 Ron Abler, Mike Meadows, Georg Gartner and Cosimo Palagiano agreed to establish a joint IGU Commission/ICA Working Group on Toponymy. During the Regional Geographical Conference of Santiago de Chile (14-18 November 2011) Ron Abler, the President of the IGU, established that a Commission/Working Group on Toponymy that has been under discussion between ICA and IGU for some time is now formed after several preliminary meetings between interested members of both organizations. After reviewing the proposal submitted by IGU representative Cosimo Palagiano, the executive committee approved establishment of the body contingent upon the submission of an appropriate Steering Committee and on approval by the ICA, whose executive committee will consider the proposal in late November 2011.
