Interesting, even the German newspapers still use Peking. The shift to Beijing did happen in Dutch, without too much fuss. Peking is now only used for the duck recipe (Pekingeend). Odd really, because Beijing is kind of unique in this aspect. For most capitals the Dutch name is consequently used (Berlijn/Parijs vs. Berlin/Paris). |
