Which country is traditionally known in English as the Ivory Coast?

• A. Ivory Coast
• B. Gabon
• C. Ghana
• D. Côte d'Ivoire

Answer: (D)

Names of places often have different forms in different languages, and international usage now favors the form that matches the country’s official or local name. The country in West Africa uses the French name Côte d'Ivoire, and in official contexts and many international organizations, this is the English form that’s preferred. So Côte d'Ivoire is the best answer because it reflects the official designation used in diplomacy and global institutions, even though you might still hear Ivory Coast in everyday English. The other options refer to different countries (Gabon and Ghana) or are just a direct English translation of the same country’s name, which isn’t the official form.
