Tips

culture
Two prominent bearers in Chinese media: 埃尔·科特兹 (Hernán Cortés, 1485–1547), the Spanish conquistador who toppled the Aztec Empire in 1521; and contemporary US politician 亚历山大·卡西-科特兹 (AOC). Mainland press also uses the spelling 科尔特 (Kē'ěrtèsī) for the conquistador — both are accepted.
mistakes
In Spanish the name is Cortés (with stressed final 'é'); 科特兹 reflects the English-influenced 'Cortez' spelling that drops the accent. Either Mandarin form is correct depending on which European-language route the name took into Chinese.
