And the spellings in English are indecipherable to most people rendering it garbled mush mouth to everybody. Nor would anyone pronounce it within a row of bungholes of being correct in Chinese. And even if they did, so what because you need to learn 1,000s of other words, grammar, idioms, etc, etc, etc to communicate. So let's stick to Canton, English speaking world, huh? Everyone's heard of the Cantonese language and food, so at least there's a tangible connection to the city.

There is a standardized transliteration system for Mandarin called pinyin, which ties the characters to their pronunciation, hence producing official readable names, which are the ones generally used. Of course, there are also traditional names such as Canton, which are also correct in English language, and also accepted in this quiz.

I wish it were easy to just pack up a bag and travel the entire world for a few years. It wouldn't even need to be fancy -- I have no problem camping/couch-surfing/staying in hostels as long as it's reasonably safe and there's some vegetarian food. (Frankly, I think grand hotels can sometimes deprive travelers of a purer and truer experience of a place.) I did read about a couple who traveled and worked odd jobs to keep up the money to continue traveling... maybe one day.

This is not meant to stir debate, but was Yangon renamed Naypyidaw, or did the capital actually move to another city? I put Yangon as a wild guess and was astounded it was right because I thought the city no longer existed. In any case, I apologize for my ignorance on this issue.

-Chongqing over Cairo, 28.8 million vs. 18.2 million

-Harbin over Hyderabad (and Ho Chi Minh), 10.2 million vs. 9.6 million

-Wuhan over Washington DC, 10.8 million vs. 8.6 million

Chongqing is actually still quite far from being the biggest. Yes, it can be considered be the biggest, but only if you count the population based on city proper. The area of the municipality of Chongqing legally is about the size of Austria, so it makes sense why it has a lot of population. But not all parts of Chongqing are urban areas though, hence, its urban area population are actually smaller than its city proper population. Even Chinese cities like Shanghai, Beijing & Guangzhou are still bigger in terms of urban areas population.

For your information, the top 3 biggest urban agglomerations in China are : Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta & Jing-Jin-Ji Region. You may look them up and look for their population size, which are tens of millions of people, the size comparable to countries like Spain, Italy or UK (size varies by sources). Each of them consist of multiple large cities with their own metropolitan areas. They are also among the world's largest urban agglomerations

I am pretty sure that you are wrong about Edmonton having 1.3 million people. As far as I know, Canada only has 3 cities with over 1 million; Toronto, Montreal, and Calgary (Where I live.)

Ho Chi Minh City has more people than Hyderabad now. Is it not included for a reason (because it's also called Saigon) or was it just missed during the update?

99/100, only missed Zhengzhou (China), worst thing is that I have actually been there before and even spent the night...

Perhaps I missed it because 'zh' in standard Mandarin is pronounced similarly to 'j' in English.

I don't like calling Saigon "Ho Chi Minh". he was a bad guy and should not have this great city named after him. I'm glad JetPunk accepts Saigon for HCMC.

Claiming Urumqi is in East Asia misled me. Even if it's part of China, I don't think it's a suitable definition when one wants to define the location of the city.

The population of Fuzhou is a typo surely? 4.55 million would make a lot more sense than 45.5 especially considering that Fujian (the province Fuzhou is in) apparently has a population of 38.56 million and also contains Xiamen.
