>tell me which one you like the best
I live in Olsztyn.
It's Allenstein in German, Olštynas in Lithuanian, Allenstenium in latin, Alnāsteini in old Prussian and Holstin in old Polish.
I like Holstin the most out of those. I wish they didn't change it.
>Austin, Texas
>too irrelevant to be translated into other languages
don't even know what it's called in spanish tbpf
Yeah new world cities have it harder, especially US ones because everyone uses the same name for it.
>São Paulo
Never understood why they don't translate the name. The city would be much more popular if it was known internationally as Saint Paul.
I was in Saint Paul USA, I think they'd have a problem with that.
Anyway a city called Święty Paweł(Saint Paul) would be funny.
vantaa in a billion languages, vanda in swedish
baнтaa in russian, probably just vantaa with their funny letters
万塔 in japanese, probably just vantaa with their funny letters
Wanda is a Polish female name so I think your city name is cute :3
>town of middle of nowhere
>translated into 22 languages on Wikipedia
Why the hell? I mean some of these aren't even real languages
my city is too small to be translated :c
Tijuana in every language.
I just used a few of the many translations, I don't want everyone to post all of the languages just a few for shits and giggles.
Bukittinggi (Indonesian: Kota Bukittinggi, Minangkabau: Bukiktinggi, Jawi: بوكيق تيڠڬي)
krakow is Cracóvia here lmao
>Minangkabau
Is that really a real word?
Euro cities have quite a few names.
For example a lot of eastern German cities have polish names, like Cottbus is Chociebuż, Dresden is Drezno, Kiel is Kilonia because at some time they were part of Poland or in west slav territory.
Here it's called Ostin.
polacks are slavic subhumans
One letter and it already sounds like some place in Caucasus.
It has a german and a croatian name.
In german it's called Wudersch.
In croatian it's called Erša I think.
Hungarian is Budaörs.

Laibach in German

Labacum in Church Latin
Aemona in Classical Latin
Lubiana in Italian and (arguably) English
Lublana in the local dialect
Same, as I live in the Canadian knockoff.
So that's how the band name came to be.
Yeah, though none of them is actually from Ljubljana, they're all from the mining region of Zasavje about 50 km to the east.
>Rochester
Every one is practically the same, sometimes adding a letter here or there, the only cool one is "Roffa" in Latin.

It really is just a language of Roman letters with fancy hats.
I've been to Rochester. I stopped there on my way to Minneapolis, ate at some place called Canadian Honker. I enjoyed the weather it was a bit like here.

We call you Lahi too, and your country Laško on the rare informal occasion (that's also the name of Slovenia best beer brand, named after a town in east SLO where your distant ancestors used to live in the late 1st millenium AD).

Riga for the most part in any language.
It's Ryga here though and as a person who did travel a lot it's a very underrated place, for sure it's the best looking Baltic states capital.
