User:Boruch Baum/sandbox/Jewish toponyms

This is a list of Jewish toponyms used in the Hebrew, Yiddish, Ladino and other Jewish languages for place-names. The written historical record in Jewish documents refer to place-names only by their Jewish names, which can be confusing if one does not know the correspondence. Also, many Jews continue to refer to place-names by their Jewish toponym, even when speaking other languages, even when no Jewish community currently exists at that location.

The etymology of the names should be included below, as well as the Jewish language in which the toponym was coined.
