Croatian exonyms

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Remove ads

Croatian exonyms are geographic place names outside of Croatia which have been adapted to Croatian spelling rules, or are simply native names from ancient times.

This list includes current and historical exonyms, as exonym use varies over time. As an example, Carigrad is a disused exonym for Istanbul, which replaced an even older exonym, Stambol.[1] Croatian exonyms continue to be defined even in the modern day, as one research illustrated over the debate over the pronunciation and declension of Qatar (Katar in Croatian) after it hosted a water polo championship in the 2010s.[2]
