Ceará-Mirim
Ceará-Mirim is city in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The population is 70,012 and the area is 739.686 km2. == Etymology ==
The origin of the city name is a mystery. Câmara Cascudo, one of the most important historians in Brazil, gives some alternatives from other authors, with all the alternatives leading to the Tupi language.〔Book: ''Nomes da Terra: História, Geografia e Toponímia do Rio Grande do Norte'', Câmara Cascudo, p. 82〕 José de Alencar suggests us that Ceará comes from the Tupi expression ''cê-ará'', meaning "the parrot speaks" or "the parrot sings". Teodoro Sampaio gives us ''ceará'' or ''cemo-ará'', which is "the parrot leaves" or "the parrot's departure". There are also the versions of Paulino Nogueira and João Brigido, who suggest, respectively, ''çoô-ará'' and ''ciri-ará'', that are "truly hunting time" and "white crab".
