台灣地名趣談

作者-王啓明

台灣稱為土庫的地名很多,有些地方是當年交通不便,到該地時要渡過溪流,那麼就必須脫褲子涉水,於是稱為脫褲,名稱不雅,改為土庫。 台灣的南港在北部,北港在南部,何以故?此乃台灣早期的交通運輸,港口都是河港,港口碼頭在河的北岸稱北港,在南邊稱南港。高雄古地名打狗,那麼打貓是何地? 台灣地名緣由多了,不見得與中國意識有關。例如中和區有個名為連城路的道路,此為中和區連接到土城區的道路,故命名為連城路,後來鄰里行政區劃分,該道路的某區域就命名連城里,就在我家旁邊。
地名經常和生活經驗或老百姓的地緣關係有關,人口不斷的擴張,新的行政區出現,命名就只能隨遇而安了,但基本上都有他命名的道理!
