Arizonaとは

意味・読み方・使い方

語源

From O'odham alĭ ṣonak (“small spring”), from alĭ (“small”) + ṣonak (“spring”); traditionally through the Spanish intermediary form Arizonac.

Other, very different origins have been proposed, including:

• Derivation from Spanish árida zona (字義どおりに “dry zone”). This is widely considered a folk etymology.
• Derivation from Basque haritz ona (字義どおりに “good oak”).
• Derivation from arizuma, supposedly a Nahuatl word meaning "silver-bearing".
