Before going to the last letter - and there are several solutions ;) - I'm sorry to inform you that several answers are "unofficial translations". The translations of city's names into one or two languages legally known in :flag-be: ( :flag-nl: + :flag-fr: + :flag-de: , by order of population) are legalized (and, so, are very official). This is unfortunately NOT the case for :

For information, you can find this official list here. Thanks to update your solutions, midoriiro & laurentina :D


And for :flag-fr: Ypres, the official name of this :flag-nl: - speaking city is :flag-nl:
Ieper, and :flag-de: Ypern is not an official translation of Ieper.

Please post one "other language" name of a Belgian City

The game will be played with these "other language" names of Belgian Cities. Please DON'T take these examples ! :wink:
You never wrote that them name has to be legalized.
Some places historically have german names - my german google maps uses Ypern instead of Ieper, as this town seems to have a name in german language for a long time - like Leuven - Löwen etc or French example in Germany: Aix la Chapelle - Aachen, well know names, also not 'legalized'
I think they should be accepted...

New topic is worldwide.
Let's try to find cities which contain the first letter 4 times. it's not possible with all the letters. If you can't find one try it with 3 of the same letter in the name, more is always better of course.
