surprised to see iasi on here
In their native language both Cologne and Vienna would count since their names in German are Köln and Wien, both one syllable.
Yes but I’m using English versions of names for this quiz.
What about Kielce and Trier?
Gdańsk is listed as two syllables on the Wiki page, with the audio sample in the Name section instead of in the opening paragraph.
Will add those two. I have Gdansk as one syllable in my other quizzes and native Polish speakers (I speak some myself) do pronounce it as one syllable.
I thought Lyon had two syllables.
In the French pronunciation the two parts are diphthongs, I am counting those as one syllable.
Player from Lyon here : definitely one syllable in French pronouncing.
