- 1伊利諾州（全稱也作伊利諾伊州）
Illinois is a large state in the middle of the United States, in the part Americans call the Midwest. Chicago is its biggest city by far; the capital is Springfield, a smaller city farther south — so the famous city is not the capital, though people often guess that it is. The state is known for farms, especially corn and soybeans, and also for factories, trains, and river traffic. Lake Michigan touches it in the north, and the Mississippi River runs along one side. English speakers do not say the last letter you see: Illinois is said roughly ill-ih-NOY, as if the s were not there. The name came into English from French Illinois, taken from an Algonquian name — perhaps Ojibwe — that goes back to Miami ilenweewa, “he speaks the regular way.” That name first belonged to a Native people, and then to the land. You will also meet the Illinois River. Though actually, in daily talk Illinois almost always means the state; the older use for the people now lives mainly in history and formal writing.
組成From French Illinois, from an Algonquian name (perhaps Ojibwe) going back to Miami ilenweewa, “he speaks the regular way.”
