# Snihurivka

A settlement in Ukraine; local name Снігурівка.

## English name

**Snihurivka** — Current Ukrainian name in the national romanization adopted in 2010, recommended by the UN in 2012 and adopted by BGN/PCGN in 2019. BGN/PCGN Ukrainian system (1965), superseded for US/UK geographical naming by the 2019 agreement gives the same spelling here. ALA-LC Ukrainian table (2011 edition), for bibliographic retrieval gives the same spelling here.

Other forms in use:

- **Snigirevka** — Russian-based English form; useful for Soviet-era and Russian-language-derived references, rather than the preferred Ukrainian name.
- **Snigiryovka** — Alternative English transcription of Russian Снигирёвка.
- **Snigurivka** — Older mixed spelling with g; less faithful to modern Ukrainian romanization.
- **Snihourivka** — French-language form, useful when an English text quotes a French map, report or source title; not the English main name.
- **Snìgurìvka** — ISO 9:1995 character transliteration; standard-derived spelling, with medium confidence in actual textual occurrence, not an independently attested press exonym.
- **Снігурівка** — Original Ukrainian spelling for matching local source titles or addresses quoted in English.

## French name

**Snihourivka** — Attested French reference spelling; ou renders у.

Other forms in use:

- **Snihurivka** — International Ukrainian spelling also used by French media.
- **Sniguiriovka** — Russian-based French spelling explicitly given in the French reference entry.

## Notes
