peer agreement (net): +3| borough of queens 皇后区 Explanation: I've seen it translated as 皇后区. see example in http://www.worldjournal.com/wj-ny-edu.php?nt_seq_id=1301716 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2006-02-05 06:08:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- It appears to have been named after the queen consort, Catherine of Braganza, wife of Charles II. see quote from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queens,_New_York "Established on November 1, 1683, it was named for the then-queen consort, Catherine of Braganza, wife of Charles II." Read this in several URLs on Queen's history. Hope this helps. |
