Kiev in Ukrainian is Kиїв. It's spelled Kiiiv, which means it's still Kiev. The only difference is the letter "i" instead of letter "e". The faggots have absolutely perverted the spelling. This fucking madness keeps spreading. You don't have to be a scientist in linguology to spell it properly.

Media sources are not authoritative sources. The Ukrainian people are.

The American body sure as hell isn't an authoritative source where I live either. In fact, it gets many things downright wrong by the sounds of things. It's "Kiev".

But "mai poluhtix!" causes you short circuit for some reason.

Classic strawman horseshit.

You're wrong in 3 ways (that's pretty bad since you didn't say much in these 2 sentences). The WSJ isn't the source. The source is the United States Board on Geographic Names. The Ukrainian people cannot possibly be the source unless they work in an official government department to romanize Ukrainian geographic names.

Lastly, and hilariously, if you truly believe the Ukrainian people are the authoritative figure, then you'd stop using the occupying-Russian romanization which is spelled "Kiev."

The "Kiev" spelling comes from the Russian ownership of Ukraine.

Modernize your language instead of wallowing in your ignorance. You look dumb when you spell it Kiev.

And I'm saying that an American body is no authoritative source whatsoever when it comes to a foreign language name.

They are literally the authoritative body when it comes to how English speakers/writers should spell it.

LMAO...dude...how are you this retarded?
