adelaide
- nsw, australia
- Adelaide ,Eastern Cape Province , S Africa. The modern day area of Adelaide was first inhabited by Bushmen (estimated around 1530 to 1760), but in the late 18th and 19th century the Xhosa and white settlers arrived. The Bushmen were displaced and are no longer found in the area. Adelaide's origins date back to 1835 when a British officer named Captain Alexander Boswell Armstrong (1787–1862) established a military encampment which he named Fort Adelaide after the wife of King William IV. Despite the earlier English settlers, who were part of the 1820 Settlers, later on a large number of both Scottish and Afrikaans people soon immigrated here too. The Scottish were also the first to erect a church in the local area.

macau
- Macau est une commune du Sud-Ouest de la France, située dans le département de la Gironde, en région Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Ses habitants s'appellent les Macaudais. Ce toponyme gascon était jadis documenté sous les formes Maquau ou Macquau (1273), Machau (1311, 1359). Ce nom proviendrait d'un terme présumé *machalus[2]. On notera qu'en 1190, le canal séparant l'île de Machanina (aujourd'hui soudée à la terre ferme) se nommait déjà la Maqueline[réf. nécessaire] (deux variantes de *machalina, un dérivé du toponyme). Deux théories ont été avancées pour tenter d'élucider la signification du toponyme Macau :
- The Burmese name Bago (ပဲခူး) is likely derived from the Mon language place name Bagaw (Mon: ဗဂေါ, [həkɜ̀]).
- 馬庫阿人,也被稱為馬庫瓦人The Makua people, also known as Makhuwa, are a Bantu ethnic group found in northern Mozambique and the southern border provinces of Tanzania such as the Mtwara Region.

- Hell's Kitchen, also known as Clinton, is a neighborhood on the West Side of Manhattan in New York City, west of Midtown Manhattan. It is considered to be bordered by 34th Street (or 41st Street) to the south, 59th Street to the north, Eighth Avenue to the east, and the Hudson River to the west.Until the 1970s, Hell's Kitchen was a bastion of poor and working-class Irish Americans. Though its gritty reputation had long held real-estate prices below those of most other areas of Manhattan, by 1969, the City Planning Commission's Plan for New York City reported that development pressures related to its Midtown location were driving people of modest means from the area.Since the early 1980s, the area has been gentrifying, and rents have risen rapidly. Home of the Actors Studio training school, and adjacent to Broadway theatres, Hell's Kitchen has long been a home to fledgling and working actors. Today, the area has a large LGBTQ population and is home to a large number of LGBTQ bars and businesses.

碧玉,又稱鐵石英Jasper, an aggregate of microgranular quartz and/or chalcedony and other mineral phases, is an opaque, impure variety of silica, usually red, yellow, brown or green in color; and rarely blue. The common red color is due to iron(III) inclusions. Jasper breaks with a smooth surface and is used for ornamentation or as a gemstone. It can be highly polished and is used for items such as vases, seals, and snuff boxes. The specific gravity of jasper is typically 2.5 to 2.9.[4] A green variety with red spots, known as heliotrope (bloodstone), is one of the traditional birthstones for March. Jaspillite is a banded-iron-formation rock that often has distinctive bands of jasper.The name means "spotted or speckled stone," and is derived via Old French jaspre (variant of Anglo-Norman jaspe) and Latin iaspidem (nom. iaspis) from Greek ἴασπις iaspis (feminine noun), from an Afroasiatic language (cf. Hebrew ישפה yashpeh, Akkadian yashupu). This Semitic etymology is believed to be unrelated to that of the English given name Jasper, which is of Persian origin.Green jasper was used to make bow drills in Mehrgarh between 4th and 5th millennium BC. Jasper is known to have been a favorite gem in the ancient world; its name can be traced back in Arabic, Persian, Hebrew, Assyrian, Greek and Latin. On Minoan Crete, jasper was carved to produce seals circa 1800 BC, as evidenced by archaeological recoveries at the palace of Knossos.Although the term jasper is now restricted to opaque quartz, the ancient iaspis was a stone of considerable translucency including nephrite. The jasper of antiquity was in many cases distinctly green, for it is often compared to emerald and other green objects. Jasper is referred to in the Nibelungenlied as being clear and green. The jasper of the ancients probably included stones which would now be classed as chalcedony, and the emerald-like jasper may have been akin to the modern chrysoprase. The Hebrew word may have designated a green jasper. Flinders Petrie suggested that the odem, the first stone on the High Priest's breastplate, was a red jasper, whilst tarshish, the tenth stone, may have been a yellow jasper.
- Jasperware, or jasper ware, is a type of pottery first developed by Josiah Wedgwood in the 1770s. Usually described as stoneware, it has an unglazed matte "biscuit" finish and is produced in a number of different colours, of which the most common and best known is a pale blue that has become known as Wedgwood Blue. Relief decorations in contrasting colours (typically in white but also in other colours) are characteristic of jasperware, giving a cameo effect. The reliefs are produced in moulds and applied to the ware as sprigs.

- *******Coraopolis (/ˌkoʊriˈɒpəlɪs/) is a borough in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States.The borough was incorporated on June 7, 1886. It was previously known as a village under the name of Middletown, while the post office name was Vancefort. It was established in August 1861, and changed to Coraopolis in March 1886. Legend has it that the borough was named for a member of the Watson family, Cora Watson, who was born on February 2, 1870. However, an old newspaper uncovered by longtime resident and local historian Dr. Frank Braden, Jr. suggests it more likely took the appellation from a Greek word for "maiden city". According to page 7 of the book Coraopolis, by Gia Tatone, Coraopolis Historical Society (2007), "The newspaper [Dr. Frank Braden, Jr. uncovered] was simply called the News and was published in Coraopolis, Pennsylvania, on June 5, 1897. The newspaper discusses the confusion that was occurring with the post offices in regard to the name Middletown, because several other areas in the state of Pennsylvania shared the same name. With a borough now being established, the Reverend Josiah Dillon, a pioneer clergyman, suggested the name to be changed to Coraopolis. Dillon knew Greek and was also the first burgess (mayor) at the time. So he suggested combining Kore meaning 'maiden' and opolis meaning 'city' ('maiden city') to achieve Koreopolis. However, when Greek letters and pronunciation were turned to English, it is said the spelling therefore accidentally got changed."

macau
- Macau est une commune du Sud-Ouest de la France, située dans le département de la Gironde, en région Nouvelle-Aquitaine. Ses habitants s'appellent les Macaudais. Ce toponyme gascon était jadis documenté sous les formes Maquau ou Macquau (1273), Machau (1311, 1359). Ce nom proviendrait d'un terme présumé *machalus[2]. On notera qu'en 1190, le canal séparant l'île de Machanina (aujourd'hui soudée à la terre ferme) se nommait déjà la Maqueline[réf. nécessaire] (deux variantes de *machalina, un dérivé du toponyme). Deux théories ont été avancées pour tenter d'élucider la signification du toponyme Macau :
- en latin, malum cavum signifie 'mauvais creux'. Il s'agirait d'une contraction de ces termes, qui aurait dû donner *maucau, une formation par ailleurs inconnue en toponymie gasconne ;
- le mot macallus désigne une fosse[réf. nécessaire] et pourrait être à l'origine du nom de cette commune.
- The Burmese name Bago (ပဲခူး) is likely derived from the Mon language place name Bagaw (Mon: ဗဂေါ, [həkɜ̀]).
- 馬庫阿人,也被稱為馬庫瓦人The Makua people, also known as Makhuwa, are a Bantu ethnic group found in northern Mozambique and the southern border provinces of Tanzania such as the Mtwara Region.

tangier

- Tangier is a town in Accomack County, Virginia, United States, on Tangier Island in Chesapeake Bay. The people who came to settle the island permanently arrived in the 1770s and were farmers. In the late 19th century, the islanders began to become more dependent on harvesting crabs and oysters from the Chesapeake Bay. As the waterman livelihood became more important and more lucrative, there were often conflicts among the oyster dredgers and oyster tongers in the bay, and between those living in Maryland and those living in Virginia. Many who live on Tangier speak a distinctive dialect of American English. Prior to the arrival of colonists on Tangier Island, it was a retreat for the Pocomoke Indians. The first known European explorer of the island was John Smith. He named Tangier and the surrounding islands the "Russel Isles" after the doctor on board his ship.

- Paddington is an inner-city area of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia. The suburb of Paddington is considered to be part of the region associated with the stories of the Cadigal people. These people belonged to the Dharug (or Eora) language group, which includes what is now known as the Sydney central business district. It is known that the ridge, being the most efficient route, on which Oxford Street was built was also a walking track used by Aboriginal people. Much of the Aboriginal population (estimated at the time to be ca. 1000 people) of Sydney died due to the smallpox outbreak of 1789, one year after the First Fleet arrived in Sydney. Some Anthropologists maintain that the tribe moved to other areas of the shared Eora language group. At the time when Robert Cooper began to build his first house in Paddington, approximately 200 Koori people were living in Woolloomooloo in housing which Governor Macquarie had built for them. Paddington has never been a suburb with a dense indigenous population. In the 1930s, when parts of Sydney such as Redfern and Glebe became hubs for Aborigines entering the labour force, Paddington continued to be a European working-class suburb.

The bluffs along Scarborough's Lake Ontario shores reminded her of the limestone cliffs in Scarborough, England. On August 4, 1793, she wrote in her diary, "The shore is extremely bold, and has the appearance of chalk cliffs, but I believe they are only white sand. They appeared so well that we talked of building a summer residence there and calling it Scarborough." Before that, the area was named Glasgow, after the Scottish city.

tangier

- Tangier is a town in Accomack County, Virginia, United States, on Tangier Island in Chesapeake Bay. The people who came to settle the island permanently arrived in the 1770s and were farmers. In the late 19th century, the islanders began to become more dependent on harvesting crabs and oysters from the Chesapeake Bay. As the waterman livelihood became more important and more lucrative, there were often conflicts among the oyster dredgers and oyster tongers in the bay, and between those living in Maryland and those living in Virginia. Many who live on Tangier speak a distinctive dialect of American English. Prior to the arrival of colonists on Tangier Island, it was a retreat for the Pocomoke Indians. The first known European explorer of the island was John Smith. He named Tangier and the surrounding islands the "Russel Isles" after the doctor on board his ship.

- The White Cloud Temple or the Monastery of the White Clouds (白雲觀; pinyin: Bái Yún Gùan; literally: "White Cloud Compound") is a Daoist temple , Beijing, China. It is one of "The Three Great Ancestral Courts" of the Quanzhen School of Daoism, and is titled "The First Temple under Heaven". The White Cloud Temple was first founded in the mid-8th century during the Tang dynasty, and was initially called Tianchang Abbey (天長觀; Abbey of Celestial Perpetuity). During this period, the abbey was state-sponsored and staffed by an elite clergy. From 1125 to 1215 when what is now Beijing was controlled by the Jin dynasty, the abbey served as the Daoist administrative headquarters and played an important role in state ceremonies. After Beijing was taken by the Mongols in 1215, the abbey was taken over by the Quanzhen patriarch Qiu Chuji, and became the headquarters of the Quanzhen movement until the establishment of the Ming dynasty. Qiu renamed the abbey Changchun Gong (長春宮; Palace of Eternal Spring). In October 1222, Qiu gave his exposition of Daoism to Genghis Khan after a three-year trek from Shandong Province after being summoned. Qiu's successor, Yin Zhiping (尹志平; 1169-1251) built a memorial shrine over Qiu's grave. This shrine became a temple in its own right called White Cloud Temple. The abbey was damaged when the Mongols took over in the late 13th century, and during the Ming dynasty the Changchun Gong disappeared. However, White Cloud Temple survived and took over the functions of Changchun Gong. During the Ming dynasty, monks from the Zhengyi school took over operations of the abbey, but continued Quanzhen traditions and ordination ceremonies. Zhengyi control over the temple continued until the 17th century, when their monopoly ended and the Quanzhen master Wang Changyue (王常月; ?-1680) took over. To this day, White Cloud Temple remains Quanzhen controlled. During the 20th century, the abbey was without an abbot for the 1940s, and was closed when the Communists came to power in 1949. Unlike many other historical sites which were damaged during the Cultural Revolution, White Cloud Temple was well-protected and remained safe. Today it is again a fully functioning temple and is the seat of the Chinese Daoist Association.

- In 1320, the Mongol Empire sent a trade mission to a place called Long Ya Men (or Dragon's Teeth Gate), which is believed to be Keppel Harbour at the southern part of the island. The Chinese traveller Wang Dayuan, visiting the island around 1330, described Long Ya Men as one of the two distinct settlements in Dan Ma Xi (from Malay Temasek), the other being Ban Zu (from the Malay pancur).Ban Zu is thought to be present day Fort Canning Hill, and recent excavations in Fort Canning found evidence indicating that Singapore was an important settlement in the 14th century. Wang mentioned that the natives of Long Ya Men (thought to be the Orang Laut) and Chinese residents lived together in Long Ya Men. Singapore is one of the oldest locations where a Chinese community is known to exist outside China, and the oldest corroborated by archaeological evidence.

- 根據《展拓香港界址專條》,后海灣原來整個皆屬香港管轄。中華人民共和國成立後,宣稱在1950年代曾經採取行動實際控制了部分后海灣,寶安縣可管理沿岸約200米的範圍,但當時未得英國政府確立;及後,中方曾於1990年代,在后海灣進行填海造地工程。目前劃界是1997年7月1日香港主權移交後生效,香港后海灣水域有一半左右被劃入广東省範圍。而在2007年,香港政府重新租用前身為香港水域的深圳灣口岸港方口岸區,以實施一地兩檢,使香港疆界重新跨越深圳灣。后海灣原稱「後海灣」,乃對應位處深圳蛇口半島另一面的前海灣。然而,由於寶安縣居民將「後」寫作「后」(后是後的俗字),故約定俗成作「后海灣」,今香港仍用此名。至於「深圳灣」,據《展拓香港界址專條》載:「……查按照粘附地圖所租與英國之地,內有大鵬灣、深圳灣水面,惟議定,該兩灣……」,可見當時已有「深圳灣」之名。今深圳用此名。有傳「深圳灣」一名是深圳政府方面單方面更改,乃誤。2007年,跨越后海灣的深圳灣公路大橋通車。香港政府為統一大橋名稱,依循深圳方面使用「深圳灣」一詞,但「后海灣」仍是香港對該海灣的官方名稱,還有「后海灣幹線」的稱呼。The name of Shenzhen Bay came much later, at least after the establishment of Shenzhen Special Economic Zone in 1980. The name became more notable after a hotel was named Shenzhen Bay. While the government of China uses the name widely, the people and government in Hong Kong continue to use the official name (后海灣).

Csar, Czar and Tsar
- The word as a job title comes from the family name of an individual - Julius Caesar. This guy was so dominant, that 2000ish years later, his name had turned into a job title in Russia (Tsar), and Germany (Kaiser.) In adopting the name, the Russians moved it to Cyrillic… however, it started in the Roman alphabet. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-correct-spelling-Tzar-Tsar-Czar-or-Csar
- when the French borrowed the word <czar> via a German account who may have been taking the word as written without being confident how it was really pronounced, they pronounced <cz> as /z/, and that was how it got routed into English. English does not have its native way to pronounce <cz>, unlike the <cow> in “Moscow”, so they just shrugged and assumed the French knew best, and pronounced it /zar/. So the route of that word went Russian - Polish - German - French - English, all of which use the Latin alphabet in different ways, and it would be surprising if it didn’t suffer a game of Broken Telephone as it went across Europe!

- Julius Caesar’s full name in Latin is Gaius Iulius Caesar. Written in Latin majuscule script, this would be GAIVS IVLIVS CAESAR. If you know the International Phonetic Alphabet, then, in the Classical Latin of the first century BC, this name would have been pronounced something like /ˈɡaː.i.us ˈjuː.li.us ˈkae̯.sar/. If you do not know the International Phonetic Alphabet, then, using English phonetic respelling, this would be something like “GAH-ee-oos YOO-lee-oos KAI-sar” with the ⟨r⟩ on the end of Caesar being an alveolar trill, as in Spanish or Italian.https://www.quora.com/Was-Julius-Caesar-pronounced-YOO-Lee-us-KYE-sahr-in-ancient-Rome
Sheikh (/ʃeɪk/ SHAYK, /ʃiːk/ SHEEK; Arabic: شيخ šayḫ [ʃajx], mostly pronounced [ʃeːx], plural شيوخ šuyūḫ [ʃuju:x])—also transliterated Sheik, Shykh, Shayk, Shaykh, Cheikh, Shekh, and Shaikh—is an honorific title in the Arabic language. It commonly designates the ruler of a tribe or a royal family member, who inherited the title from his father. "Sheikh" is given to a royal male at birth and the related title "Sheikha" is given to a royal female at birth.The word in Arabic stems from a triliteral root connected with age and aging: ش-ي-خ, shīn-yā'-khā'. The title carries the meaning leader, elder, or noble, especially in the Arabian Peninsula within the Tribes of Arabia, where shaikh became a traditional title of a Bedouin tribal leader in recent centuries. Due to the cultural impact of Arab civilization, and especially through the spread of Islam, the word has gained currency as a religious term or general honorific in many other parts of the world as well, notably in Muslim cultures in Africa and Asia.谢赫(阿拉伯语:شيخ;索馬里語:Sheekh),波斯又稱沙吉熬爛(Shaykh Alam)阿拉伯语中的一个常见尊称,意指“部落长老”、“伊斯兰教教长”、“智者”等(通常是指博學的四十歲以上男子)。在阿拉伯半岛,谢赫是部落首领的头衔之一。在南亚(孟加拉國、巴基斯坦、阿富汗、印度)和东南亚,谢赫往往是阿拉伯后裔男子的称号;阿拉伯基督徒也常用该尊称。这个词汇的其他译名有沙伊赫、昔、锡。在印度,一些高種姓(婆羅門,刹帝利)人士,皈依伊斯蘭教時也會使用此頭銜,在德里地區謝赫通常是波斯移民後代。

- 楊樹達據《說文》以為字從「八」從「亏」,「八」象氣之分,「亏」與「于」同,象聲氣上出而以「一」顯示聲氣之平穩。本義是氣之平舒。《說文》:「平,語平舒也。从亏从八。八,分也。爰禮說。釆,古文平如此。」林義光、高鴻縉認為字從「一」,「釆」聲(《說文》訓辨別,讀若辨之釆)。其說不可從,因「平」多從兩點,從四點與「釆」相近的字形為數不多。 金文「平」表示平坦,中山王兆域圖:「丘平者五十尺」。又用作人名,鄀公鼎:「鄀公平侯自乍(作)尊盂。」字又用作地名,𠫑羌鐘:「先會于平陰。」《左傳.襄公十八年》:「十一月丁卯朔,入平陰。」地在今山東肥城西。秦簡「平」指相等,《睡虎地.秦律十八種》簡175:「大嗇夫、丞智(知)而弗罪,以平罪人律論之。」大嗇夫和丞俱為官名,全句指這些官員如果知情而不加懲罰,以與罪犯相等的法律論處他們。又指平和,《睡虎地.為吏之道》簡13-1:「和平毋怨。」另,「平」亦可用作人名與地名。

Csar, Czar and Tsar
- The word as a job title comes from the family name of an individual - Julius Caesar. This guy was so dominant, that 2000ish years later, his name had turned into a job title in Russia (Tsar), and Germany (Kaiser.) In adopting the name, the Russians moved it to Cyrillic… however, it started in the Roman alphabet. https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-correct-spelling-Tzar-Tsar-Czar-or-Csar
- when the French borrowed the word <czar> via a German account who may have been taking the word as written without being confident how it was really pronounced, they pronounced <cz> as /z/, and that was how it got routed into English. English does not have its native way to pronounce <cz>, unlike the <cow> in “Moscow”, so they just shrugged and assumed the French knew best, and pronounced it /zar/. So the route of that word went Russian - Polish - German - French - English, all of which use the Latin alphabet in different ways, and it would be surprising if it didn’t suffer a game of Broken Telephone as it went across Europe!
Nowadays, in my English at least, “tsar” means the Russian ruler, and “czar” means a political official appointed and given extensive powers in order to solve a problem: Wang Qishan is China’s anti-corruption czar, William E. Simon was energy czar for the Nixon administration. https://www.quora.com/Why-is-the-word-czar-spelled-with-a-cz-and-pronounced-zar-when-the-original-Russian-word-is-pronounced-tsar

- Julius Caesar’s full name in Latin is Gaius Iulius Caesar. Written in Latin majuscule script, this would be GAIVS IVLIVS CAESAR. If you know the International Phonetic Alphabet, then, in the Classical Latin of the first century BC, this name would have been pronounced something like /ˈɡaː.i.us ˈjuː.li.us ˈkae̯.sar/. If you do not know the International Phonetic Alphabet, then, using English phonetic respelling, this would be something like “GAH-ee-oos YOO-lee-oos KAI-sar” with the ⟨r⟩ on the end of Caesar being an alveolar trill, as in Spanish or Italian.https://www.quora.com/Was-Julius-Caesar-pronounced-YOO-Lee-us-KYE-sahr-in-ancient-Rome
Sheikh (/ʃeɪk/ SHAYK, /ʃiːk/ SHEEK; Arabic: شيخ šayḫ [ʃajx], mostly pronounced [ʃeːx], plural شيوخ šuyūḫ [ʃuju:x])—also transliterated Sheik, Shykh, Shayk, Shaykh, Cheikh, Shekh, and Shaikh—is an honorific title in the Arabic language. It commonly designates the ruler of a tribe or a royal family member, who inherited the title from his father. "Sheikh" is given to a royal male at birth and the related title "Sheikha" is given to a royal female at birth.The word in Arabic stems from a triliteral root connected with age and aging: ش-ي-خ, shīn-yā'-khā'.

- In 1320, the Mongol Empire sent a trade mission to a place called Long Ya Men (or Dragon's Teeth Gate), which is believed to be Keppel Harbour at the southern part of the island. The Chinese traveller Wang Dayuan, visiting the island around 1330, described Long Ya Men as one of the two distinct settlements in Dan Ma Xi (from Malay Temasek), the other being Ban Zu (from the Malay pancur).Ban Zu is thought to be present day Fort Canning Hill, and recent excavations in Fort Canning found evidence indicating that Singapore was an important settlement in the 14th century. Wang mentioned that the natives of Long Ya Men (thought to be the Orang Laut) and Chinese residents lived together in Long Ya Men. Singapore is one of the oldest locations where a Chinese community is known to exist outside China, and the oldest corroborated by archaeological evidence.

The word mambo, similarly to other Afroamerican musical denominations such as conga, milonga, bomba, tumba, timba, samba, semba, bamba, bamboula, tambo, tango, cumbé, cumbia and candombe, denotes an African origin, particularly Congolese, because it displays certain characteristic combinations of sounds (such as mb, ng and nd) which belong to the Niger-Congo linguistic complex[citation needed]. In modern Swahili, the word mambo corresponds to the English phrase "Hey, what's up?" The Oxford Online Dictionary lists mambo as Haitian-Creole from Yoruba meaning "voodoo priestess".
