Disputatio:Pechinum
E Vicipaedia
Where have you seen this form attested? I've only seen Pechinum and Pequinum (maybe also Pekinum). Granted, Pecinum is a logical form, because some people will pronounce it /k/ (without aspiration), and some will pronounce it /tS/, just as the Chinese themselves use both pronunciations. Nevertheless, inasmuch as there are traditional forms of this name, I think we should go with them. --Iustinus 128.135.24.116 18:19 nov 23, 2004 (UTC)
