Notes

Definitions edit

  1. small camp; small mud fortification
  2. fort; fortress
  3. Short for 漢堡汉堡 (hànbǎo, “hamburger”).
Usage notes edit

Often used in phono-semantic matchings to translate English and German -burg, or English -burgh, etc.
Some place names or surnames with the component Berg is also translated into , but this is a result of confusion between Burg and Berg, with the latter meaning "mountain" instead of "castle". Nowadays Berg is usually transliterated as or except in few examples e.g. 紐倫堡纽伦堡 (Niǔlúnbǎo, Nuremberg), 海德堡 (Hǎidébǎo, Heidelberg) and 海森堡 (Hǎisēnbǎo, Heisenberg).
