QUE SIGNIFIE PRAIRIE EN ANGLAIS

Prairie

Prairie

Les prairies sont des écosystèmes considérés comme des végétaux tempérés, des savanes et des marécages par des écologistes, basés sur des climats tempérés similaires, des pluies modérées et une composition de graminées, d'herbes et d'arbustes, plutôt que d'arbres, comme type de végétation dominante. Les régions de prairies tempérées comprennent les Pampas de l'Argentine, du Brésil et de l'Uruguay, ainsi que les steppes d'Eurasie. Les terres généralement appelées «prairie» ont tendance à être en Amérique du Nord. Le terme englobe la zone appelée les basses terres intérieures des États-Unis, le Canada et le Mexique, qui comprend toutes les grandes plaines ainsi que la terre humide, un peu plus montagneuse à l'est. Aux États-Unis, la région est constituée par la plupart ou l'ensemble des États du Dakota du Nord, du Dakota du Sud, du Nebraska, du Kansas et de l'Oklahoma, et des régions importantes des États du Montana, du Wyoming, du Colorado, du Nouveau-Mexique, du Texas, du Missouri, de l'Iowa , L'Illinois, l'Indiana, le Wisconsin et l'ouest et le sud du Minnesota. La vallée centrale de la Californie est aussi une prairie. Les Prairies canadiennes occupent de vastes régions du Manitoba, de la Saskatchewan et de l'Alberta.

Prairies are ecosystems considered part of the temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biome by ecologists, based on similar temperate climates, moderate rainfall, and a composition of grasses, herbs, and shrubs, rather than trees, as the dominant vegetation type. Temperate grassland regions include the Pampas of Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay as well as the steppes of Eurasia. Lands typically referred to as "prairie" tend to be in North America. The term encompasses the area referred to as the Interior Lowlands of the United States, Canada and Mexico, which includes all of the Great Plains as well as the wetter, somewhat hillier land to the east. In the U.S., the area is constituted by most or all of the states of North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, and Oklahoma, and sizable parts of the states of Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and western and southern Minnesota. The Central Valley of California is also a prairie. The Canadian Prairies occupy vast areas of Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta.

Sam Abell

There are grander and more sublime landscapes - to me. There are more compelling cultures. But what appeals to me about central Montana is that the combination of landscape and lifestyle is the most compelling I've seen on this earth. Small mountain ranges and open prairie, and different weather, different light, all within a 360-degree view.

Metrics are not a device for restraining the mad, any more than 'open form' or free verse is a prairie where a man can do all kinds of manly things in a state of wholesome unrestrictedness.

Jack Horner

My father had owned a ranch when he was younger, in Montana, and he remembered riding his horse across the prairie and seeing some large bones sticking out of the ground. He was enough of a geologist, being a sand and gravel man, to have a pretty good notion that they were dinosaur bones.
