people who visit the united states sometimes hope to know the states got their names.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 of the country.in their language,illinois means "brave men".con-necticut means "at the long river - mouth" inthe 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 pennsyl-vania have names which were taken from the latin languages.Florida and colorado were named for places in England.he two newest states have names which did not come from any of those languages.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.
访问合众国(美国)的人有时希望了解各个州是如何命名的.一些最有趣的名字来自于美洲印第安语言,例如:伊利诺伊由曾居住在该国家那个区域的印第安人命名的,在他们的语言中,伊利诺一是“勇敢的人”的意思.康涅狄格州是曾居住在那里的印第安人的语言中是“在一条长河的河口”的意思.25个州都有印第安语的名字,其他州的名字来自于不同的语言.乔治亚州和宾西法尼亚州的名字来自于拉丁语,佛罗里达州和科罗拉多州是按英格兰的地名命名的.最新的两个州的名字不是来自于那些语言的任何一种,夏威夷是夏威夷语里的单词,意思是“家乡/祖国”.阿拉斯加是俄罗斯人命名的,1867年时(被美国)从俄国人手中购得.
