Green Light for Delegation First new gTLDs are Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) |
21.10.2013
ICANN clears the first four domains from the new gTLDs Program to proceed to delegation.
These first new gTLDs, or strings, are:
• شبكة (xn--ngbc5azd) – the Arabic word for “Web” or “Network”
• онлайн (xn--80asehdb) – Russian for “Online”
• сайт (xn--80aswg) – Russian for “Web site”
• 游戏 (xn--unup4y) – Chinese for “Game”
This will be the first time non-Latin characters can be used in a generic TLD.
