2. These Rumanian translations are often abbreviated versions of the original Hungarian names. In such cases in the list below, the missing part is indicated by dots (....)
3. The letter G in brackets after the name of the locality indicates German origin.
4. In Hungarian the attribute always precedes the noun; in the Rumanian translations of Hungarian toponyms the attribute mostly follows the noun. E.g.
- in Hungarian: Nagy(ajta), nagy=great
- in Rumanian: (Aita) Mare mare=great.
In these (and many other) instances, the pronunciation of the name of the locality is almost identical in both languages, but in reverse order.
