List of Country, Capital and Inhabitant Names
By the Translation Bureau
Terminology Bulletin 264
The List of Country, Capital and Inhabitant Names is the revised and expanded version of the List of Country Names, an important and reliable bilingual reference document in the fields of international relations, diplomacy and official correspondence, published in 2006 by the Translation Bureau. The new list contains 393 entries in English, French, Spanish and Portuguese and includes the names of the 193 Member States of the United Nations, their inhabitant names and capitals, as well as the names of the inhabitants of these capitals. Date posted: March 2017.
Note
User Guide
The preferred designations reflect those used in the Americas.
Proper names without a geographic label are used in all countries where the language in question is spoken.
The geographic label Portugal identifies proper names used in countries that have adopted those used in Portugal.
A geographic label following a proper name indicates the region where the proper name is used.
Gender labels follow the names of countries in accordance with the applicable language rules: they are never used in English, but always in French and Portuguese, and exceptionally in Spanish.
Names of capitals are not followed by a gender label in French, Spanish or Portuguese because these places generally adopt the gender of the generic, for example, &idquo;city.”
Notes concerning the use of the article before the names of a country or concerning the number are added when there is an exception to the rules of the given language.
