In graph theory, there is something called "Scheinerman's conjecture." It was proven in 2009, so it's not a conjecture anymore, but it's been known by that name for so long that nobody wants to call it anything else.

Given that Mandarin has the ü sound, why is Ürümchi transliterated as Wūlǔmùqí in Chinese rather than Yulümuqi? (Ürümchi in Uyghur is /ʏrʏmˈtʃi/, Wulumuqi is /ulumut͡ɕʰi/, and Yulümuqi is /ylymut͡ɕʰi/. The tones are irrelevant, but if you write it 于旅木齐 it could be Yúlǚmùqí.)

Approaches to pronoun dropping Spanish: "The subject is optional, but don't worry, all the information is contained in the verb!" Japanese: "Ever heard of a little thing called 'context'?"
