Russian) or accepting Christianity (borrowings from Latin). Latin started to influence Polish in the Middle Ages. When Polish statehood and Christian order were established, the language incorporated religious and liturgical vocabulary, often via Czech and German (e.g. anioł , msza ). Today this influence is limited mainly to scientific jargon. Words of German origin were borrowed particularly in the 19th century as a result of the policy of Germanization. It would be difficult to imagine modern Polish without such obvious lexical calques as czasopismo (magazine, after the German Zeitschrift), dworzec kolejowy (railway station, after Bahnhof) and owiatopoglšd (world view, after Weltanschauung). --

You didn't answer my questions: Ponary isn't used in
English for the name of the town ? Are you saying that Paneriai is an English name ? Since you claim that the name should be named after country it is in, then it would follow that it would be German or Polish name depending upon which country

It usually is. You can only use the historical name when there is an absence of a common
