Geography / Gothenburg
English term or phrase: city
Von einer Website:

new flights will be offered "from Stockholm, Gothenburg, Bergen, Berlin, Frankfurt Hahn and Friedrichshafen"

Der Ausgangstext ist in englischer Sprache (logisch, s.oben), es könnte sich allerdings um eine Übersetzung aus einer skandinavischen Sprache handeln. Gibt es Gothenburg, Gotenburg oder handelt es sich um Göteburg?

Sorry, ich bin leider mit meinem Latein am Ende... und natürlich danke, wie immer!

Göteborg


Explanation:
Hallo Wenke. Es handelt sich um die schwedische Stadt Göteborg, die auf deutsch genauso ausgesprochen wird, wie es geschrieben wird. Die Schweden sagen "Jöteborj".
