Description:
Exonyms involve the adaptation of geographical names from a donor language into a receiver language, and they reflect the fascinating movement and interaction of peoples around the world. The Working Group on Exonyms of the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) was established by resolution VIII/4 of the 8th UN Conference on the Standardization of Geographical Names. This resolution recognised that “…measures such as the categorization of exonym use … would help in the reduction of the number of exonyms”. Thus “The Classification of Exonyms” was chosen as the main topic of the 21st meeting of the working group, held in Riga in September 2018. This volume, which is the 8th in the series “Name and Place”, contains 17 papers presented at the 21st meeting. Whether or not they lead to a reduction of exonyms, these papers should contribute to a better understanding of the nature of exonyms that are used in the world.
