Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present the results of my work on collecting place names within the Hungarian National Toponym Registry, supported by the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The collecting takes place in the village of Temerin in Vojvodina. The corpus consists of two parts: the historical material contains the available data from the end of the 18th century, and the synchronous part contains the results of the personal collection, which is still ongoing and documented by audio recordings. To date, the research has been assisted by eight recorders from Temerin of different ages. The study illustrates how the collected data differ from the results of previous collections. Thus, the analysis of changes presents four groups: place names that have already disappeared, those that have remained unchanged, those that have been preserved but with minor modifications, and place names that cannot be found in earlier sources, therefore they can be considered new names.
