Nui nā kūlanakauhale e hele mai me ko lākou inoa inoa pono'ī iʻikeʻia heʻanoʻanoʻole, akā loaʻa pinepine nā aʻa i loko o ka mea a puni ke kūlanakauhale a haʻi paha iāʻoe ma kahi o ka moʻolelo o ke kūlanakauhale. ʻAʻohe kaʻawaleʻo Seattle. I ka manawa pinepine i kapaʻiaʻo ka Emerald City,ʻo ka inoa inoa o Seattle i mea e liʻiliʻi paha, a i hala paha. Ma hope o nā mea a pau,ʻaʻoleʻikeʻiaʻo Seattle no nā emeralds. A iʻole paha e hele aku kou manaʻo i "The Wizard of Oz," akā,ʻaʻole nui a Seattle e hana ai me'Oz (inā paha, hiki i kekahi ke hoʻopaʻapaʻa he mea waha o Bill Gates).
ʻO ka inoa inoaʻo Seattle iʻoi aku kaʻike. Kapaʻiaʻo Seattleʻo ka Emerald City no ka mea ua hoʻopihaʻia ke kūlanakauhale a me nā wahi ākea e ka'ōmaʻomaʻo a puni ka makahiki. ʻO ka inoa i kapaʻia mai kēia'ōmaʻomaʻo. Hāʻawi houʻo Emerald City i ka inoa inoaʻo Washington State i kapaʻiaʻo The Evergreen State (ʻoiaiʻo ka hapa hikina o Wakinekona he wao naheleʻoi aʻe ma mua o ka ulu lāʻau a me nā lāʻau ulu).
He aha ke kumu e hana aiʻo Seattle me ka Green?
E alakaʻi iā Seattle mai ka hema aʻikeʻoe i nā mau mea āpau a me nā mea pale'ē aʻe I-5. E hele ana mai ka'ākau, eʻikeʻoe i kekahi mau mea. ʻOiai he pono i loko o ka puʻu o ke kūlanakauhale,ʻaʻohe he mau lau nahele,ʻoiaiʻo nā ululāʻau piha-Discovery Park,ʻo ka Washington Park Arboretum a me nā pāʻani'ē aʻe he mau hiʻohiʻona hoʻolālā o nā wao nahele i loko o nā palena o ke kūlanakauhale.

Eia nō naʻe, he mea paha e kahaha nā malihini kipa i ke kauwela ka'ōmaʻomaʻo'ōmaʻomaʻo o ka makahiki. Ua hōʻike nuiʻia ka kaulana kaulana o Seattle ma Sepatemaba ma ka hāʻule a me ka hoʻoilo.

Ua kapaʻiaʻo Seattle i ka manawaʻo ka Emerald City?
ʻO Nope,ʻaʻoleʻo Seattle i kapa mauʻiaʻo ke Emerald City. Wahi a HistoryLink.org, ke kumu o ka manawa mai ka hoʻokūkū i mālamaʻia e ka Convention a me ka Bureau Visitors i 1981. I ka makahiki 1982, ua kohoʻia ka inoa Emerald City mai nā inoa hoʻokūkū i kapa inoa hou no Seattle.

Nā inoa'ē aʻe no Seattle
ʻAʻoleʻo ka Emerald City ka inoa inoa wale nō o Seattle.

I kekahi manawa, kapaʻiaʻo Bellevueʻo City ma kahi Pākīpika ma muli o kona wahi pāʻani-e like me keʻano. ʻOiai, pili kēia i kahi e noho neiʻoe ma Bellevue. Wahi a Downtown Bellevue e like me ke kūlanakauhale nui, aʻo Downtown Park kahi pololei i loko o ka puʻuwai o ka hana.
Ua kapaʻiaʻo Tacoma i ke kūkulu hemaʻo ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Destiny a hiki i kēia lā, no ka mea, ua waeʻiaʻo ia ka hopena o ka Pākehā o ka Pākīpika Pākīpika ma ka hopena o nā makahiki 1800. ʻOiaiʻoe eʻike nei i ka City of Destiny a puni,ʻo kēia mau lāʻo Tacoma ka mea i kapaʻiaʻo T-Town (he mau pōkole no Tacoma) aʻo Grit City (he kuhikuhi e pili ana i kaʻoihanaʻoihana o ke kūlanakauhale a me ka wā kahiko) ma keʻano he inoa.
