The word Tauern (German pronunciation: [ˈtaʊ̯ɐn]) is German and originally meant 'high mountain pass' in the Austrian Central Alps, referring to the many bridleways and passes of the parallel side valleys of the River Salzach that cut into the mountain ranges. From the Middle Ages, when mining reached its heyday, the word Tauern was also used to name the corresponding ranges. The name has survived in many local placenames today.

  • La paraula Tauern és de l'idioma alemany i originàriament significava "alt pas de muntanya" als Alps del centre d'Àustria, referint-se als nombrosos camins de ferradura i passos de les valls tributàries paral·lels del que tallen les serralades de muntanyes. Des de l'Edat Mitjana, quan la mineria va arribar al seu zenit, la paraula "Tauern" també va servir per designar les serralades corresponents. Aquest nom ha sobreviscut en nombrosos topònims. (ca)
  • Das Wort Tauern bedeutete ursprünglich „Hohe Übergänge“ (Pässe) in den österreichischen Zentralalpen und charakterisierte die vielen Saumpfade und Pässe, welche die parallelen Seitentäler der Salzach in das Gebirge schnitten. Seit dem Mittelalter, als der Bergbau zu einer Hochblüte gelangte, bezeichnet Tauern jedoch auch die entsprechenden Gebirgszüge. In vielen lokalen Bezeichnungen blieb der Name erhalten. (de)
