<< review queue entry 61171 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) "new Chinese spelling" 首尔 was a new *name*, not just a new spelling of the old name. 2) 特別市 Metropolitan City --> Special Metropolitan City Wp ~ "officially the Seoul Special Metropolitan City" 3) We don't need 首爾市 since we have 首爾 and 市. 4) "adopted new Chinese spelling 首爾|首尔[Shou3 er3] in 2005" doesn't scan well. It reads like a noun phrase until you get to the end and realise it's actually a sentence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seoul https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Names_of_Seoul |
