The city is called BENDERY. An all supported politically correct move made this article laughable. I am not a fan of the breakaway republic, but NOWHERE in the city can you see the name Bender. Also a majority of the people who live there, also ethnically from Moldova, don't use it. But in the name of political correctness Wikipedia will gave the name Bender and not the one that is on the city gates, railway station etc. Sad.— Precedingunsigned comment added by77.253.103.139 (talk)23:36, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Bender is not really an English name of the city. It's the Romanian name of this city. The city has never been so well known internationally, hence there are noexonyms for it. I've been in Bendery, and the language that's almost exclusively spoken there is Russian, even among ethnic Moldovans. Russian is used as the official language there and Bendery has been predominantly Russian-speaking since at least the second half of the 19th century, as confirmed by old censuses. The only reason Wikipedia uses "Bender, Moldova" instead of "Bendery" is that most here side 100% with the Moldovan side in this conflict. --Maturion (talk)15:01, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Dude, the Romanian name of the city is neither Bender, nor Bendery; it's Tighina. Just that you know!— Precedingunsigned comment added by82.78.21.199 (talk)05:44, 29 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
