I read a considerable portion of the 2,511 comments in this discussion thread as of September 15, 2024 at 11"AM EDT and tried to include at least one example from every nation that is mentioned in that discussion thread.

Several nations have more than one example in this compilation, but I didn't include every comment from those nations which was in that discussion thread.

I didn't include any of the comments in Arabic, Amharic, or a few other languages since those comments didn't include any mention of a geographical place.
