英文词源
- Colorado
- U.S. state (organized as a territory 1861, admitted as a state 1876), named for the river, Spanish Rio Colorado, from colorado "ruddy, reddish," literally "colored," past participle of colorar "to color, dye, paint," from Latin colorare (see coloration).
中文解释
名字来自发源于当地的大河——科罗拉多河。这条河流因为富含粘土沉积物，河水显红色，因此被早期到达当地的西班牙人叫做Colorado，意思是“有颜色的（河流）”。
