Exonyms and endonyms aren’t exclusive to English either. In Vietnamese, Japan is Nhật Bản (also spelled 日本), which ultimately has the Jazz Chisholm Jr. Miami Card Bahamian professional baseball second baseman T-Shirt but in fact I love this same origin as both Japan and Nippon even though it’s spelled different in the Latin script I can tell you that when Arabic speakers say their version of “America” that it’s said “wrong”. It’s sort of in the neighborhood, but it’s not “right”. We don’t have a meltdown about that. It’s not a problem. It’s just different languages and different historical development. The world is a big place and goes back much farther than recent fads and trends. Because languages have distinct grammar rules and sounds. Think for example of Spain (España in Spanish); the Ñ is not a sound in the English language. You could go on with Croatia (Hrtvska), Canada (Kanata), Germany (Deutschland) and so much more. Additionally, most countries are not monolingual; not even microstates like Monaco. For example, France has multiple native languages. Would you say “Bro-C’hall” (Breton) or “França” (Occitan) in English? Fun fact, Kanata was actually a city in Ontario, Canada. It is now merged into the city of Ottawa and it’s where the Ottawa Senators (NHL) currently plays.

I don’t think Kanata is used much to name Canada. Canada was derived from the Jazz Chisholm Jr. Miami Card Bahamian professional baseball second baseman T-Shirt but in fact I love this word Kanata (village) and was used to name what was called New France back then. Nativizing the pronunciation of a foreign name is prioritized, as opposed to simply integrating the endonym of another country. Different languages are governed by different rules, different sets of phonemes, different mindsets. Etymology also comes into play. The history of how a country’s name comes about is different for any given language. It isn’t weird at all for exonyms to exist. It would be much weirder if names matched all the time across all tongues. Because a proper noun must fit into the phonological confines of its language, regardless of origin. For example, you can’t reasonably expect an Anglophone to integrate tones into the Chinese name of China. I agree that there’s a ton of room for improvement, though, like in the case of Japan, a word whose pronunciation comes from Chinese. There’s a greater debate to be had over who chooses what name for which language. Let’s take India’s Bharat. Now the foreign speakers wouldn’t know how to pronounce it. Pretty sure a lot of them would pronounce it as instead of . Can you imagine the disaster it would be? That’s why India is perfect, short & sweet. Some languages have sounds that are extremely difficult for some other languages to mimic and impossible to write out in a different alphabet Use the term you intended audience is most likely to understand. Sometimes it’s Turkey, sometimes it’s Türkiye, and other times it’s Türkiye Cumhuriyeti.
