- 1特庫姆塞(北美原住民肖尼族領袖,約1768-1813);人名,歷史課本裡才會遇到
The name of a Shawnee leader (about 1768-1813) in what is now the United States. His idea was that the many Native American nations should stop making separate deals for their separate lands and act as one people, because land belonged to all of them together and no single group could sell it. Working with his Tenskwatawa, a religious teacher known as 'the Prophet', he travelled enormous distances to build that alliance. It broke apart after US forces attacked the brothers' settlement at in 1811 while Tecumseh was away, and he was killed fighting alongside the British in the War of 1812. Americans have remembered him in a way: he was an enemy, yet many US writers treated him as a noble and one, and towns, a US Navy ship, and Sherman's middle name all carry his name. meet the word mainly as a proper noun in history reading, and it is worth knowing that the shape 'Tecumseh' is an English spelling of a Shawnee name — the sounds do not quite fit English letters. Say it roughly te-KUM-suh.
組成Not an English word at all — it is a Shawnee name, Tekamthi, written in English letters. It has been explained as meaning something like 'one who passes across' or a shooting star crossing the sky, though the details are debated, so treat that story as likely rather than certain.
