The Ghats are two long lines of mountains in the south of India. The Western Ghats run down the west side, along the Arabian Sea: they are greener, wetter, and more like one long wall of hills. The Eastern Ghats run down the east side, along the Bay of Bengal: they are more broken up, not one smooth chain.

The Ghatsthe Ghats are是 two long lines of mountains in the south of India印度南部的兩條長山脈。 The Western Ghatsthe Western Ghats（西高止山脈） run down the west side沿著西側延伸, along the Arabian Sea靠著阿拉伯海: they are greener, wetter, and more like one long wall of hills比較綠、比較潮濕，比較像一整道長長的丘陵牆。 The Eastern Ghatsthe Eastern Ghats（東高止山脈） run down the east side沿著東側延伸, along the Bay of Bengal靠著孟加拉灣: they are more broken up比較破碎, not one smooth chain不是一整條平滑的山脈。

English almost always says the Western Ghats and the Eastern Ghats, with the, like a place name, and we give Ghats a capital letter. You would not call one hill “a ghat” in this mountain sense.

English英文 almost always says幾乎都會說 the Western Ghats and the Eastern Ghatsthe Western Ghats和the Eastern Ghats, with the前面加the, like a place name就像地名一樣, and we give Ghats a capital letterGhats也要大寫。 You would not call one hill你不會把單一座山丘叫做 "a ghat" in this mountain sense「a ghat」（在這個山脈的意思裡）。

Though actually, the same Hindi word was also borrowed for something else: the stone steps that go down to a river, like the famous ones at Varanasi. So English “ghats” can mean river steps as well. Same borrowed word; this entry is the two mountain lines.

Though actually不過實際上, the same Hindi word was also borrowed for something else同一個印地語字也被借去指別的東西: the stone steps that go down to a river就是通往河邊的石階, like the famous ones at Varanasi像瓦拉納西那些有名的石階。 So English所以英文裡 "ghats"「ghats」 can mean river steps as well也可以指河邊的石階。 Same borrowed word同一個借來的字; this entry is the two mountain lines不過這個詞條講的是那兩條山脈。
