How cities will sound in Chinese

In Chinese, the cities of other countries are quite similar to how they sound in Russian. It makes learning Chinese easier.

In fact, the Chinese try to preserve the sound of any foreign words. They just change foreign sounds to familiar Chinese sounds.

👇 For example:

Moscow in Chinese will sound like Mosyke (莫斯科 or in pinyin mòsīkē)

London in Chinese will sound like Lundun (伦敦 or lúndūn in pinyin)

The same principle applies to many state names.
