It is a place name, so it takes a capital H. English people sometimes county names in speech, but this one is usually said in full.
It它 is a place name是地名 so所以 it它 takes a capital H要用大寫的H English people英國人 sometimes shorten county names in speech講話時有時會把郡名簡稱 but but 這個字 this one is usually said in full通常會講全稱
Though actually, the spelling is a trap. It starts with Hert-, but the first part sounds like 'hart' (an old word for a male deer), not like 'hurt'. The end, -shire, is the old English word for a county. who read the letters as they look will not be understood.
Though actually不過其實 the spelling拼法 is a trap是個陷阱 It它 starts with Hert-開頭是Hert- but but 前面這部分 the first part 卻 sounds like 'hart'發音像'hart' an old word for a male deer(一個指公鹿的舊字) not like 'hurt'而不是像'hurt' The end結尾 -shire -shire is the old English word for a county是古英文裡「郡」的意思 Learners如果學習者 who read the letters as they look照著字面唸 will not be understood別人會聽不懂
