翻译英语,谢谢
People who visit the United States sometimes hope to know how the states got their manes.Some of the most interesting names came from American Indian languages.For example,Illinois was named for the Indians who used to live in that part lf the country.In their language, Illinois means “Brave men”.Connecticut means“At the Long River-Mouth”in the language of the Indians who used to live there.
Twenty-five of the states.have Indian names,but other names were taken from different language.Georgia and Pennsylvania have name which were taken from the Latin language.Florida and Colorado were named for places in England.The two newest states have names which did not come from any of those language.Hawaii got its name from a word in the Hawaiian language which means"homeland".Alaska was named by the Russians,from whom Alaska was bought in 1867
人们到美国旅游有时会很想知道美国的州名的由来.一些源自美国印第安人语言的州名很有意思.例如:Illinois伊利诺斯州就是由居住在当地印第安人命名的,伊利诺斯的意思是:"勇敢的人".Connecticut在当地居民的方言里意思是:"在长河的河口".
25个州都有印第安名字,但其它名字是源自其它语言.Georgia侨治亚州和Pennsylvania宾西法尼亚州的名字来源于拉丁语.Florida佛罗里达州和Colorado克罗拉多州以英国地名命名.最西面的两个州的名字不是来源于以上语言.Hawaii夏威夷的名字来源于夏威夷语,意思是"家乡".Alaska阿拉斯加州由俄罗斯人命名,美国人1867年从俄国人手中购买的阿拉斯加州.
