Brewer〔John Ayto and Ian Crofton, Brewer's Britain and Ireland, London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 2005, ISBN 0-304-35385-X, p.399.〕 gives the commonly accepted explanation that it comes from the Old English words ''irre'' ("wandering") and ''wisce'' ("wet meadow"). This is accepted by Cameron, a leading place name expert, and a Derbyshire specialist, who interprets the name as "wandering, marshy river".〔Kenneth Cameron, English Place Names, London: Batsford, 1996, ISBN 0-7134-7378-9, p.169〕 Gelling, who specialises in seeking precise topgraphical equivalents for toponymic elements, confirms that ''wisce'' signifies a marshy meadow〔Margaret Gelling, Place-Names in the Landscape, London: J.M. dent, 1984, ISBN 0-460-86086-0, p.250〕 but gives only southern examples. She conjectures that there is an element, ''wæsse'', perhaps Old English, that signifies very specifically "land by a meandering river which floods and drains quickly",〔Margaret Gelling, Place-Names in the Landscape, London: J.M. dent, 1984, ISBN 0-460-86086-0, p.59〕 and her examples are primarily Midland and northern. This seems to fit the Erewash perfectly. A good example of the meandering character of the river will be seen around Gallows Inn Playing Fields, Ilkeston, where rapid flooding and draining occur frequently. As she meanders through Toton and Long Eaton the river crosses Manor Park which has the Norfolk Brook running adjacent to it. When there has been prolonged rain fall the two waters are prone to burst their banks and meet over the football pitches and the cricket pitch. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「River Erewash」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
