Talk:紐約

Source

@Mar vin kaiser Did you have a source for Meixian Hakka and Teochew? RcAlex36 (talk) 17:50, 8 December 2021 (UTC)

@RcAlex36: For place names like these, for Meixian Hakka, my source is always syndict.com. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 04:01, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

@Mar vin kaiser: syndict.com is not a particularly reliable source. RcAlex36 (talk) 04:14, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

@RcAlex36: But isn't the website run by Hakka speakers? Isn't it equivalent to asking a Meixian Hakka speaker, "Hey, how do you say 紐約 in Hakka?" --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 08:21, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

@Mar vin kaiser: There is a possibility that most of the pronunciations were auto-generated. The pronunciations of 濟南 and 瀋陽 on the site are incorrect for example. RcAlex36 (talk) 08:23, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

@RcAlex36: Oh, I didn't know that. I now better understand why you think it's not reliable. By the way, I added a pronunciation from Teochew, based on this Youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNtA0LSRNHo. --Mar vin kaiser (talk) 08:35, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
