郁金香的历史

The History of the Tulip

“郁金香”这个词来源于荷兰人，他们生活在一个叫尼德兰(Netherlands，即荷兰)的欧洲国家。这个词的意思是“包头巾”，指土耳其或印度等国(主要由)男子所使用的一种用布裹成的帽子。由于这种头巾裹在头上的样子颇似郁金香花，于是人们开始用这种帽子的名字来命名郁金香。

The word "tulip" comes from the Dutch people, those who live in the European country called theNetherlands. The word means "turban(包头巾)", the cloth type of hats worn (mostly) by men from countries likeTurkeyorIndia. Because the hats wrap themselves around the head in much the same shape as a tulip flower, people began to name the flower after the hat.

郁金香花是从郁金香球茎中长出来的，所以你得先把郁金香球茎种在土里。欧洲人刚发现郁金香球茎时并不知道能用它做什么。很多人最后干脆把郁金香球茎油炸后给吃了。

Tulip flowers grow from bulbs(球茎)that you must first plant in the ground. When Europeans first encountered tulip bulbs, they didn't know what to do with them. Many people ended up frying them in oil and eating them.

然而，到了1610年，法国妇女为了赶时髦，开始使用郁金香作为配饰。几年以后，法国举国上下都陷入了对郁金香的狂热之中，人们甚至开始把郁金香球茎当钱使。在荷兰，男人们还开始在公开的集市上买卖郁金香球茎。

Nevertheless, by 1610, ladies inFrancebegan wearing corsages(装饰花)of tulips in order to look stylish. A few years later, the entire country fell so deeply in love with the flower that its people began using tulips bulbs like money. In theNetherlands, men began buying and selling tulip bulbs on the open market.

1636~1637年期间，郁金香热席卷了荷兰。当时，郁金香被视为财富和地位的象征，被当作货币使用。一块地的郁金香就可以买下一座小房子。有些珍稀的郁金香更是价值连城——单个球茎就可以买下一座大房子及其全部的家具和其他配套设施。

In the years 1636~1637, tulipmania ruled in theNetherlands. Tulips were a symbol of wealth and status and were traded like currency. A bed of tulips could buy a small house. Some highly prized tulips were even more valuable and a single bulb could be traded for a large house and all of its furniture and other accessories.

不幸的是，到了1637年，荷兰的货币制度变得岌岌可危，人们甚至开始食用郁金香球茎——因为他们根本没钱买别的东西。男人失去了工作、事业和家庭，甚至还有人为了郁金香花而自杀。

Unfortunately, by 1637, the money system in theNetherlands became so poor that people began eating tulip bulbs because there was no money to buy anything else. Men lost jobs, businesses and homes; some people even killed themselves over tulips.

如今，在世界各地我们都能看到郁金香(和包头巾)，而且就像与其同名的包头巾一样，郁金香花也是什么颜色都有。当然，人们仍在食用某些种类的郁金香花和郁金香球茎。像在日本的某些地方，人们就食用一种用郁金香做成的面粉。

Today, you can find tulips (and turbans) all over the world, and like their namesakes(同名物), the flowers come in all the colors of the rainbow. And yes, people still eat certain types of tulip flowers and bulbs. In some parts ofJapan, for instance, there is a kind of flour made from them.
