cartierul londonez Newham
Explanation:
Cred ca e cea mai apropiata varianta. Am auzit romani londonezi de varsta mijlocie traducand "borough" cu "raion" si ar merge in gluma, intre prieteni, daca stiu despre ce e vorba.

agree  mihaela.

  -> Mulţumesc

disagree  cezara lucas: avand in vedere dimensiunile Londrei, cartier e ceva mult prea mic
7 hrs
  -> De acord, poate "district" ar fi mai potrivit, dar nu e prea folosit în română. "Burg" nu cred ca e folosit în limba română modernă si dacă e, e livresc, nu e "general/conversation..."

agree  Sandra Creta

  -> Mulţumesc!

disagree  Roxana Nechita: se spune totuşi cartierul Manhattan, Soho, Sutton etc. Poate fi burg pe wikipedia dar nu e neapărat corect.
14 hrs
  -> Aşa m-am gândit şi eu (confidence 1). Dar nici faptul că se spune cartier nu înseamnă că e neaparat corect. Bourough este mult mai mult decât un cartier! A se vedea nota. Obs: Soho nu e borough.

agree  Mihaela Ghiuzeli: Soho nu este" borough" asa cum zici; Queens, Manhattan, Brooklyn da. E cea mai apropiata.

disagree  Veronica Lupascu: BURG, burguri, s.n. Castel medieval; cetate, așezare fortificată, cu caracter militar sau administrativ; oraș medieval; p. ext. oraș vechi. – Din fr. bourg. Cuvantul englezesc functioneaza aici ca un 'prieten fals'. Nu cred ca poate fi tradus astfel
20 hrs
  -> Așa este. Definiția din DEX nu susține răspunsul meu; poate doar cea din Dictionarul Etimologic (burg (búrguri), s.n. – Oraș, cetate.) care este mult mai (prea) vagă...

A borough is an administrative division of various countries. In principle, the term borough designates a self-governing township although, in practice, official use of the term varies widely.

The word 'borough' derives from a common Indo-European language cognate, meaning fort: compare borough, bury (England), burgh (Scotland), burg (Germany), bourg (France), burgo (Spain), borg (Scandinavia), borgo (Italy), burcht (Dutch). The incidence of these words as suffixes to place names (e.g. Canterbury, Strasbourg, Luxembourg, Edinburgh, Hamburg, Gothenburg), usually indicates that they were once fortified settlements.
