D, H, I? I know that it's definitely K1 (the highest peak) and that it's old (or local) name was Джомолънгма (on Cyrillic, for Latin - I don't know, but it's something like Chomolangma). On the other hand, Sanskrit is a Hindu form of writing and language (if I remember right) and Pyk Nekonecnyj sounds like a Slavic name...

Then I would say F, H and I..
As I surely know, that K1 is not the Mount Everest but, the first peak of the Karakoram region in Himalaya...it is the Masherbrum and not the Mount Everest...
Sanskrit is a hindu writing and language (also in Nepal) and as far as i remember Sargarmatha "Forehead of the sky" is Sanskrit (a friend of mine leraned it for a couple of years....)
ans I I simply do not know...

I have no idea but I take the eagle (Aquila) although the Camelopardalis also sounds interesting..it is the largest animal at least :biggrin:
Not quite... Both answers are wrong :wink:
