land n
land (dry portion of the Earth's surface)acountry region within a country:district ,province thecountry ,countryside owned or tilled land, anestate Using the wordland is the most common way to form country names. This can be done in one of two ways:Prefixing the name of a people to the wordland . Ex:Franca ( “ French person ” ) →Francland ( “ France ” ) ,Swēo ( “ Swede ” ) →Swēoland ( “ Sweden ” ) , and*Unger ( “ a Hungarian ” ) →Ungerland ( “ Hungary ” ) . Prefacingland with the genitive plural form of a people, producing the literal meaning “land of ____ people.” Ex:Egypta land ( “ Egypt ” , literally“ land of the Egyptians ” ) ,Siġelhearwena land ( “ Ethiopia ” , literally“ land of the Ethiopians ” ) . However, country names can also be formed other ways. For instance, words other thanland are used:Dene ( “ a Dane ” ) →Denemearc ( “ Denmark ” , literally“ Dane borderland ” ) . It is also very common to use the name of a people for the country they inhabit:On þām dagum wæs Alexander ġeboren onCrēcum swā swā miċel ȳst cōme ofer ealne middanġeard (“In those days, Alexander was born inGreece [lit.in the Greeks ] like a great storm coming over the whole world”),Ymb twā ġēar þæs þe hē cōm ofFrancum , hē ġefōr (”Two years after he came fromFrance [lit.from the Franks ], he died”). In addition, country names are sometimes loaned directly from Latin:Arabia ,Isrāhēl ,Italia ,Syria . Finally, some country names are simply idiomatic:Norþweġ ( “ Norway ” , literally“ north way ” ) . Unlike most words,land undergoesi-umlaut when combined with the suffix-isċ :inlendisċ ( “ native ” ) ,uplendisċ ( “ rural ” ) . Stronga -stem:
