Did you know?

  • If you were to translate the name into Spanish to describe its meaning, it would be Tierra de María, though you would almost never hear a native speaker use this title.
  • Spanish speakers often group Maryland with other 'mid-Atlantic' states in a regional category that lacks a direct one-word equivalent in Spanish, often requiring the phrase la región del Atlántico medio.
  • Because Maryland is a borrowed proper noun, Spanish speakers often use an English-style pronunciation, though they may slightly soften the 'r' or change the cadence to fit Spanish phonology.
