I know New York in Spanish is "Nueva York", Which other languages change the name around? I want to be able to say it in different languages

New York in English & Dutch [It would either be the same pronunciation or similar to English.]*
Νεα Υορκη "Ne-ah Yor-ki"? in Greek [This language doesn't exist for the term "New York" in the website posted below: it's from my past observation on Greek newspapers here in New York].
纽约 "Niu Yüe" in Mandarin Chinese.
뉴욕 in Korean**
ニューヨーク in Japanese**
* It is "New" when writing New York in Dutch, but when you write New Amsterdam, use Nieuw, instead of New!
**Despite different writing systems, it's both "Nyo Yok" in Japanese and Korean pronunciations.

It should always be New York, after all that's it's name. Sadly we in England tend to be a bit aloof and give English names to foreign places like Vienna for Wien (Austria) and we pronounce Paris as spelled instead of Paree. York is an English city so that wouldn't change but the 'New' bit could be in any language so you could have Nouveau York, Nova York, Neues York, Nouvelle York and so on.

In most languages places names stay the same like German is the same, while Russian is Нью-Йорк (I have no idea on the pronunciation). Portuguese is Nova York. And Italian, French, and Dutch is also just New York. But if you would like more just search google translate or go to another translation website to find out cool ways to say other things! Good Luck!

Almost every country says, "NEW YORK" replacing the NEW with whatever word their language means NEW.
For instance, in Spanish, it's NUEVA YORK.
