Who, other than their authors, looks at such pages? What's the use of an endless list of examples of the obvious fact that each language adapts foreign words to its own phonology? If you find such lists useful, please tell me how. —Tamfang (talk) 21:15, 15 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I found this list of outdated names to be quite humourous. Tvquyet (talk) 10:06, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Vietnamese exonyms#Czechia says that Prague has 2 Vietnamese names, and one of them is Thiệp Khẩu. But Google Translate says that Thiệp Khẩu is Vietnamese for "postcard" ! . Anthony Appleyard (talk) 13:01, 27 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Hi. I'm Vietnamese, I've never heard anyone say the word "Thiệp Khẩu", and I don't even know what it means. If you split that word. "Thiệp" means a card, such as a greeting card, Christmas card, etc. "Khẩu" is a Sino-Vietnamese word and it means "mouth". That might be why Googletranslate translates that word into English as "postcard". Prague is written in Vietnamese as "Prague" or "Praha", which is read as "Prát(/pɹaːt̚/)" or "Pra-ha(/pɹaː haː/)". 42.119.154.145 (talk) 14:28, 9 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Never heard it either, but I think is an alternative reading or misreading of Tiệp Khắc / 捷克 (Czechslovakia). Tvquyet (talk) 10:03, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Where does this come from? I've never heard any Vietnamese speaker use this word, and the Vietnamese Wikipedia doesn't even have a page for it, (nonexistent target) with its just being hosted at Iraq. So........... LOOKSQUARE (👤️·🗨️) talk 22:10, 3 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
