About Minnesota 

Short History 簡史

Minnesota's name comes from the Dakota word Mnisota, meaning "sky-tinted water." It became the 32nd state in 1858. ⭐

The "Twin Cities" grew up side by side on the Mississippi River. Saint Paul, once a riverboat landing nicknamed "Pig's Eye," became the state capital. Minneapolis grew around St. Anthony Falls, whose water powered huge flour mills. Its name means "City of Water." 💧 Today, these friendly rivals are the heart of Minnesota!

 

明尼蘇達的名字來自達科他語「Mnisota」,意思是「映著天空顏色的水」,並在1858年成為美國第32個州。⭐

「雙子城」沿著密西西比河並肩成長。聖保羅曾是綽號「豬眼」的河船碼頭,後來成為州首府。明尼亞波利斯則圍繞著聖安東尼瀑布發展,瀑布的水力推動了大型麵粉廠,它的名字意思就是「水之城」。💧 如今,這對友好的競爭對手就是明尼蘇達的心臟!

Nature & Seasons 自然與四季

Minnesota actually has over 11,000 lakes, so the nickname is being modest! 🏞️ The Mississippi River starts here as a tiny stream you can walk across. Winters are freezing cold ❄️, summers are perfect for swimming and canoeing ☀️, and in fall the whole state turns orange and red. 🍁

明尼蘇達其實有超過一萬一千座湖泊,這個綽號還算謙虛呢!🏞️ 密西西比河就發源於此,起點只是一條可以直接走過去的小溪。這裡的冬天冷到不行 ❄️,夏天很適合游泳和划獨木舟 ☀️,到了秋天,整個州都會染成一片橘紅色。🍁
