英语词汇san jose的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

San Jose; San Juan; San Antonio; San Francisco. These, of course, are the names of three cities in the United States and one (San Juan) in Puerto Rico. They also have the distinction of be- ing the four leaders in North and South America among places named after saints: San Jose is the name of 429 places, San Juan 365, San Antonio 337, and San Francisco 275. Sometimes these cities aren’t named for the same saint, however. One apocryphal story has a construction worker falling from the 10th floor of a building. “San Antonio!” he cries as he passes the seventh floor and, miraculously, he remains suspended in air a few instants. “Which San Antonio?” a sepulchral voice asks. “San Antonio de Padua!” the worker cries. “That’s not me,” the voice says, and the worker plummets toward the ground below.
