QUÉ SIGNIFICA DOWNTOWN EN INGLÉS

Centro de la ciudad

Downtown

El centro de la ciudad es un término utilizado principalmente en América del Norte por hablantes de inglés para referirse al núcleo de una ciudad o CBD, a menudo en un sentido geográfico, comercial o comunal. El término se cree que se acuñó en la ciudad de Nueva York, donde estaba en uso por la década de 1830 para referirse a la ciudad original en el extremo sur de la isla de Manhattan. Como la ciudad de Nueva York se convirtió en una ciudad, la única dirección que podría crecer en la isla fue hacia el norte, procedente río arriba del asentamiento original. Así, cualquier cosa al norte de la ciudad original se conocía como "uptown", mientras que la ciudad original se conocía como "downtown". A finales del siglo XIX, el término fue adoptado gradualmente por las ciudades de los Estados Unidos y Canadá para referirse al núcleo histórico de la ciudad. Notablemente, no fue incluido en diccionarios tan tarde como los 1880s. Pero por los 1900s tempranos, el centro fue establecido claramente como el término apropiado en inglés americano para el districto de negocio central de la ciudad.

Downtown is a term primarily used in North America by English speakers to refer to a city's core or CBD, often in a geographical, commercial, or communal sense. The term is thought to have been coined in New York City, where it was in use by the 1830s to refer to the original town at the southern tip of the island of Manhattan. As the town of New York grew into a city, the only direction it could grow on the island was toward the north, proceeding upriver from the original settlement. Thus, anything north of the original town became known as "uptown", while the original town became known as "downtown". During the late 19th century, the term was gradually adopted by cities across the United States and Canada to refer to the historical core of the city. Notably, it was not included in dictionaries as late as the 1880s. But by the early 1900s, downtown was clearly established as the proper term in American English for a city's central business district.

I was 22 and stopped writing plays, and I didn't start again until I was 25. I was writing badly.

J. Cole

I'm the same kid who used to hop the trains with headphones and just go to downtown Manhattan, walk around and listen to music or walk through the city. The fame restricts that. It's a small complaint in comparison to the benefits I get from it, but the restrictive part is what I don't like - and the fact that it's not reversible.
