主题:【原创】有趣的美国车牌 -- landlord
如果你在美国生活过,你或许曾注意过来往车辆的车牌上那些短句。(我指的不是车主们自己贴上去的那些,而是车牌上原有的。)
那些可是州政府规定的,大多是本州的别名(外号),有的甚至是通过立法规定的别名。如Keystone State(Pennsylvania),Constitution State(Connecticut),Volunteer State(Tennessee),Garden State(New Jersey),The Centennial State(Colorado)。。。
有的却是口号或“广告”。如It's That Friendly(Kentucky),Like No Place on Earth(Wyoming),Great Faces, Great Places(South Dakota),Sounds Good to Me(Tennessee),Oklahoma Is OK!(Oklahoma),Live Free or Die!(New Hampshire)。。。
还有的是州政府的网址
