近年来,在地名的考证上,出现了一种不尊重历史的偏向,有些同志总想把北疆有些地名的含意,赋以美妙动人的色彩。比如,有人把乌鲁木齐说成是美丽的牧场,还说是某一个兄弟民族叫法的译音。其实,北疆一带从历史上留下来的,仍为群众普遍应用的重要地名,不少是蒙古语。 In recent years, in the textual research of the place names, there has been a tendency to show no respect for history. Some comrades always want to impress on the meanings of some place names in northern Xinjiang with beautiful and moving colors. For example, some people regard Urumqi as a beautiful pasture and say that it is a transliteration of a certain fraternal people. In fact, the northern region has historically left behind, and is still an important place name commonly used by the masses, many of them Mongolian.
