==Etymology== The city's name is supposedly derived from the Russian translation of "Chrysostom", literally "golden-mouthed" in the original Greek, for Saint John Chrysostom, because the city was founded near a church dedicated to that saint. In other languages, the city is sometimes called Izlataltıs (), or Zılataus () in Tatar, and Zalatauys () in Bashkir.
