Why do some reporters say the Olympics are in Torino, Italy, not Turin?
-
Last week, I heard several news reports that referred to the Olympics being in Torino, Italy. On National Public Radio, they mostly say Turin, Italy. Perhaps Turin is a suburb of Torino?
-
Answer:
Torino is what the Italians call Turin.
