導(dǎo)讀:近日,一則“荷蘭改名”的消息引發(fā)國內(nèi)媒體熱議,不少中文媒體引用美國媒體報(bào)道稱,荷蘭將更名為尼德蘭。事實(shí)上,荷蘭并不是改名,而是將采用新的國家徽標(biāo)。

Which country is famous for tulips and windmills? Most call it the Netherlands while others call it Holland. It’s confusing sometimes.
哪個(gè)國家以郁金香和風(fēng)車聞名于世?大多數(shù)人(在英文中)稱之為Netherlands(尼德蘭),還有一些人叫它Holland(荷蘭)。這有時(shí)令人感到莫名其妙。

We won’t be confused anymore. In December, the country’s government announced that it would stop using Holland as its nickname, reported US News.
我們將不再為此感到困惑了。據(jù)《美國新聞》報(bào)道,去年12月,該國政府宣布停止使用Holland作為昵稱。

According to the Guardian, Holland only makes up two of the country’s 12 provinces: North-Holland, where Amsterdam is located; and South-Holland, the home of Rotterdam and The Hague. The nickname, however, is often used to describe the entire country.
據(jù)《衛(wèi)報(bào)》報(bào)道,“Holland”一詞僅指該國12個(gè)省中的兩個(gè)省,即阿姆斯特丹所在的“北荷蘭省”,以及鹿特丹和海牙所在的“南荷蘭省”。但這個(gè)昵稱常常被用來指代整個(gè)國家。

In order to change this situation, ministries and universities in the country can only use its official name, the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
為了改變這一現(xiàn)狀,該國的政府部門及高校只能使用“the Kingdom of the Netherlands”(中文譯名:荷蘭王國)這一官方名字。

According to China Daily, this measure is part of a plan to draw tourists to other parts of the country as some cities are battling “overtourism”.
據(jù)《中國日?qǐng)?bào)》報(bào)道,這一舉措是引流游客到該國其他地方的計(jì)劃的一部分,因?yàn)橐恍┏鞘姓媾R“過度旅游”這一難題。

In the past, instead of the Netherlands, Holland was written in the country’s logo for tourism marketing. Many foreign tourists only visit the two provinces in Holland.
過去,該國在宣傳旅游業(yè)時(shí)采用了內(nèi)有Holland字樣的徽標(biāo),而非Netherlands。許多國外游客只會(huì)游覽兩個(gè)荷蘭省。

“It is a little strange to promote only a small part of the Netherlands abroad, that is, only Holland,” a spokesperson for the foreign ministry told the Spanish international news agency EFE.
“只將國家的一部分(指Holland)向海外推廣是有些奇怪?!焙商m外交部一位發(fā)言人在接受西班牙通訊社埃菲社采訪時(shí)如此表示。

So the government is making a new logo, one that combines the initials NL with an orange tulip, the country’s national flower.
因此,該國政府推出了一版新徽標(biāo),將首字母縮寫NL字樣以及國花橙色郁金香的造型結(jié)合了起來。
