- toyg 5y agoBeijing or Peking...?
- skhr0680 5y agoBeijing = Northern Chinese pronunciation Peking = Southern Chinese pronunciation
- Koshkin 5y agoBut neither one is something we can pronounce correctly anyway, I suppose.
- toyg 5y agoWell then, Florence or Firenze?
- galuggus 5y agoBeijing and Peking are different romanizatiins of 北京 Beijing is Pinyin and Peking is Wade-giles Both are pronounced the same way
- thaumasiotes 5y agoWell, you're one for three. Beijing and Peking are different romanizations of 北京. It is not true that beijing is pinyin and peking is Wade-Giles, nor is it true that they are pronounced the same way. Wade-Giles would be pei-ching. (Pinyin is indeed beijing.)
