新加坡国名由来How Did Singapore Get Its Name2
加坡是一个城市国家，原意为“狮城”。据马来史籍记载，公元1150年左右，苏门答腊的室利佛逝王国王子盘那乘船到达此岛，看见一头猛兽，当地人告知为狮子，遂有“狮城”之称。新加坡是梵语“狮城”之谐音，由于当地居民受印度文化影响较深，喜欢用梵语作为地名。而狮
子具有勇猛、雄健的特征，故以此作为地名是很自然的事。过去华侨多称其为“息辣”，即马来语“海峡”的意思，也有因其小而将之称为星洲、星岛的。图为新加坡的标志与象征——鱼尾狮塑像和“新加坡国父”---李光耀。Singapore is a city state, the original intention is “Singapore”.
