Hello!

A possible translation of "Montevideo" is "I see a mountain"

Montevideo is the capital city of Uruguay, the origin of its name comes from the diary of a member of Fernando de Magallanes' expedition:

In his diary, Francisco de Albo wrote, referring to the hill located in the bay of Montevideo, that he called it "Montevidi". This is a Latin word that can be translated as "I see a Mountain"
