  1. Norwegian exonyms

    Expand list date August 2008 As a general rule, modern Norwegian does not use exonyms for names with Exonym and endonym endonyms in Latin script. Historically, several Danish German exonyms have been in use, due to the Danish roots of the Bokm l variety of Norwegian language Norwegian , but these exonyms should be considered archaic, and are no longer used officially. Below is list of Norwegian language exonyms for places outside of Norway TOCright Albania Tirana Tiran Tirana not really an exonym, this is the definite form of the name in Albanian language Albanian Belgium Brussels Brussel Bruxelles The forms Brussel or Bruxelles are recommended but the German form Br ssel which actually is an official language of Belgium is in common use Cuba Havana Habana Havanna Czech Republic Prague Praha Prag archaic, German exonym Finland Until quite recently, most people tended to use the official List of cities and towns in Finland Swedish names in Norwegian.
