Geysir- The name Geysir itself is derived from the Icelandic verb - TopicsExpress



          

Geysir- The name Geysir itself is derived from the Icelandic verb geysa , to gush, the verb from Old Norse. This word was mentioned in the British history when the people arrived in Iceland and saw this great nature landscape for the first time. On the other hand, GEYSER, this English noun comes from Icelandic. 「Geysir」冰島話意思為「噴出」,英國人在首次見到冰島間歇泉後感嘆大自然的奧秘,因此英語的「Geyser」語源就是來自冰島文Geysir。在Haukadalur谷地周圍,分布有數十座大小不等的間歇泉,目前則以The Great Geysir為冰島間歇泉之首。每一次噴發間隔大約需等候3-6分鐘。有時看似醞釀成熟、蓄勢待發;有時發生卻來得無聲無息...每一次噴發的規模也不盡相同,偶有連續噴發的現象。
