Expand Name Settlement For Free

what would they be about the cities towns of villages and all kinds of settlements that listed them while all these settlements may have different names well more or less what's interesting is that there are certain elements of settlement names that appear in many names most noticeably certain suffixes that crop up in many settlement names why do many place names share similar suffixes and what do they mean and of course there are many of these so this video would be covering all of them I'm afraid but rather the more prominent ones and especially the ones of the english-speaking world as there were I'm more familiar with however there will be suffixes or other languages covered thanks to all the suggestions you guys left me thank you all so why did these elements of language pop up so often well I guess that'll make more sense when we look into them as these suffixes usually refer to specific features of that area a great example of this will be the suffix of muff like we see with Portsmouth polymer and Bournemouth to name a few this suffix refers to a place it is the mouth of a river or large opening of water into either majority of places with the suffix of by water another example would be the Dale suffix back in Rochdale which is an old english word for a valley the mouth places I just covered all uk-based well there's others in the US and other places but I think that's more due to the whole British Empire thing however Hin UK we have loads of play suffixes that pop up all over the country what's interesting about these is how they do graphically laid out take the cess the suffix as an example most of these appear in the South a Midlands of England like with Winchester chick Chester Leicester Gloucester etc this comes from Latin meaning camp it makes sense this comes from Latin and it would mainly be in the more southern side of England as the Romans would their Latin would have come into the nation via the south while the B suffix is no some meaning settlement or village I'm gonna be seen in Derby and Grimsby which are all northern and where the Vikings would have entered a nation from though this doesn't line up perfectly with Manchester using a variation of the S the suffix being in the north and rugby being more sovereign than Leicester see my hypothesis might not work out perfectly but it's an interesting quirk one that pops up often to is Bree like we see of Glastonbury and Canterbury this suffix means fortified enclosure what's interesting about the brief suffix is that has changed over time becoming borough brah I'm bro these suffices so wit pronounce if you just doing them on their own as we see with Middlesbrough and Edinburgh up in Scotland however what's interesting about this is that across the pond in the USA this suffix has changed pronunciation to become Berger like we see of Pittsburgh and Gettysburg in fact Gettysburg has taken it a step further and changed the spelling to be more phonetic to this pronunciation there's...
