UNITED NATIONS Group of Experts on Geographical Names Bevenm Sess.cn WORKING PAPER Geneva, 15-23 October 1984 No. 22 Item No.l§of the Provisional Agenda* EXONYMS FOR AUSTRIAH GEOGRAPHICAL HAMES AS FQUHD IN SOURCES WSITTEN IS ENGLISH, FREHCH, ASP RUSSIAN (submitted by the Dutch-and German- speaking Division. Prepared by J. Breu) * W? Ho. I Whereas the United Nations have recommended that each country should produce lists of exonyms currently used in its national language the following paper presents a synoptical list of the exonyms for geographical entities in Austria found in the four official languages of the United Nations using an alphabetical •writing system. The names are taken front leading atlasses and encyclopedias and may serve as a basis for further discussion. The experts who.are native speakers of English, French, Spanish or Russian are invited to study the list and to make the necessary corrections, deletions and additions. In accordance with Resolutions No. 28 and 29 of the Second U*N. Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names, London 1972 (Report, vol. 1, New York 1974), especially the possibility of deletion should be considered. It may be mentioned that in the case of differing exonyms for the same feature the predominant name form only has been entered into the list. The above mentioned official languages of the U.N. have been chosen because some agencies of the U.N. have their seat in Austria so that there is felt a certain need for an accurate information on the subject of exonyms. - 3 - Exonyras for Austrian geographical names in English(E), French(F), Spanish(S) and Russian(R) feature situated only partly in Austria Allgauer Alpen E Algau Alps F Alpes Algaviennes S Alpes de Algovia R AJIBIIH Alpen E Alps F,S Alpes R AJI&IIH Bodensee E Lake Constance F Lac de Constance S Lago Constanza R Eo&eHCKoe osepo Bohmerwald E Bohemian Forest F Foret de Boheme S Selva de Bohemia R rBayerische Alpen Bavarian Alps Alpes Bavaroises S Alpes de Baviera R BasapcKHe _Donan E,F Danube S Danubio R Drau EtF,S Drave R flpasa Eisenerzer Alpen E Eisenerz Alps F,S Alpes de Eisenerz R AJXBIIH Ennstaler Alpen E Ennstal Alps F Alpes du Ennstal S Alpes del Ennstal R .3HCTaJiBCKHe Fischbacher Alpen Fischbach Alps F,S Alpes de Fischbach R $HHi(5axcKHe Qailtaler Alpen E Gailtal Alps P Alpes du Gailtal S Alpes del Gailtal R Gurktaler Alpen E Gurktal Alps P Alpes du Gurktal S Alpes del Gurktal R AJIBIIH Hohe Tauern S Altos Tauern R BHCOKHM Tayapn Karawanken KapasaHKe Karnische Alpen E Carnie Alps F Alpes carniques S Alpes Carnicos KapHHMCKne AJIBIIH Karat en E Carinthia P Carinthie S Carintia Kitzbiihler Alpen E Kitzbiihel Alps F, S Alpes de Kitzbiihel R Kleines Ungarisches Tier- E Little Alfold land P Kisalfold S Pe<J*aena Llanura Hungara R Lechtaler Alpen E Lechtal Alps F Alpes du Lechtal S Alpes de Lechtal R AJIBHH Lienzer Dolomiten E Lienz Dolomites F Dolomites de Lienz S Dolomitas de Lienz March R Mopasa Neusxedler See E Lake Neusiedl F Lac de Neusiedl S Lago Neusiedl Niedere Tauern S Bajos Tauern R HHSKKM - 5 - Niederosterreich E Lower Austria P Basse-Autriche S Baja Austria R HuacHfiH ABCTPHH Oberosterreich E Upper Austria P Haute-Autriche S Alta Austria R BepxHHH ABCTPHH Ostalpen E Eastern Alps P,S Alpes orientales R AJIBIIH Osterreich E,S Austria P Autriche R Osterreichisches Alpen- E Austrian Alpine Foreland vorland F Region prealpine autrichienne S Region Prealpina Austriaca R ABCTpHMCKoe npearopfce Otztaler Alperi E Otztal Alps F Alpes de 1* Otztal S Alpes del Otztal R AIEBHU Ratische Alpen E Rhaetian Alps F Alpes rhetiques S Alpes Reticos R Rhein E Rhine F Rhin S Rin Salzburg(Land) F Salzbourg (province) S Salzburgo (provincia) Salzburg (Stadt) F Salzbourg (ville) S Salzburgo (ciudad) Steiermark E Styria F Styrie S Estiria R Steiner Alpen E Kamnik Alps F9S AJLpes de Kamnik R AJIBHH Stubaier Alpen E Stubai Alps F Alpes du Stubai S Alpes del Stubai R HlTy<5aMCKHe - 6 - Tirol E , F Tyrol Ungarisches Tiefland E Hungarian Basin F Bassin hongrois S Llanura Hungara R Wien (Land) E Vienna (province) F Vienne (province) S Viena (provincia) R Bena Wien (Stadt) E Vienna (city) F Vienne (ville) S Viena (ciudad) R Bena (ropo.rO Wiener Becken E Vienna Basin F Bassin de Vienne S Cuenca Vienesa R BeHCKuM (SacceMH Wiener Wald F Foret de Vienne R Jlec Zillertaler Alpen E Zillertal Alps F Alpes du Zillertal S Alpes del Zillertal R AJIBOH.
