英国人姓氏背后的秘密

                                                                                    

Do you know English people’s family names? Everyone has a family name. But what does it mean? What do family names come from?
First, some family names come from the place of their homes. If a man lives on or near a hill, his family name may be Hill. In England people’s names may be Wood, Lake, because they live near the wood or lake. Second, family names come from a person’s job. If a person is a cook, he may be Cook. Third, many people get their family names from their father’s given name. If you hear the name “Jackson”, you know that he is the son of Jack.
