Uisge Ban Falls (Official Spelling "Easach Ban"〔(Geographical Names of Canada - Easach Ban )〕 alternative spellings 'Uisage'; 'Bàn' or 'Bahn')〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 Provincial Hiking Trails of Victoria County, Cape Breton Island ) 〕 is a waterfall near Baddeck, Nova Scotia, Canada. ==The name== The name Uisge Ban comes from the Gaelic meaning “white water”, ''uisge bàn'', probably conflated with the word ''eas'' meaning a waterfall. The official name usage for the falls is confusing as most maps produced by the Government of the Province of Nova Scotia and by many tourist groups use either of the two spellings starting with a "U", sometimes using both spellings in the same document, yet the only official name that appears in either Government of Nova Scotia or Government of Canada, Canadian Geographical Names Data Base (CGNDB) is the "Easach Ban" spelling. The "Easach Ban" spelling is the only version used on Government of Canada topographical maps. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Uisge Ban Falls」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
