    In English it is a place name, said with a first part like “glaz” and a second part like “go.” Writers sometimes repeat an old romantic gloss of the name as “the dear green place,” from older Celtic words for green and hollow. That is a lovely story people like to tell; the pieces behind it are “green” and “hollow,” not the English word glass.

    In English it is a place name在英文裡它是個地名,said with a first part like "glaz" and a second part like "go."念起來前半部像「glaz」、後半部像「go」。Writers sometimes repeat an old romantic gloss of the name as "the dear green place,"作家有時會重複一個浪漫的舊說法,說這名字是「the dear green place(親愛的綠地)」,from older Celtic words for green and hollow說是來自古凱爾特語裡「綠色」和「窪地」的字。That is a lovely story people like to tell那是個大家喜歡講的美好故事;the pieces behind it are "green" and "hollow,"但背後的那兩個字其實是「green」和「hollow」,not the English word glass不是英文的glass這個字
