Circumnavigate : ウィキペディア英語版 | Circumnavigation
Circumnavigation is travelling all the way around an island, a continent, or (usually) the entire planet. This article is concerned with the latter. The first world circumnavigation in history was the Magellan-Elcano expedition, which sailed from Spain in 1519 and returned in 1522 after having crossed the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Indian oceans. ==Etymology== The word ''circumnavigation'' is a noun formed from the verb ''circumnavigate'', from the past participle of the Latin verb ''circumnavigare'', from ''circum'' "around" + ''navigare'' "to sail" (see further Navigation § Etymology).
