- 1高地、山地
Highland means an area of high land, like mountains or hills, especially when talking about a whole region rather than just one mountain. It's often used as a place name — 'the Scottish Highlands' is the mountain region in the north of Scotland, famous for its scenery. As a describing word, 'highland' can go before a noun: 'highland cattle,' 'highland music,' meaning it comes from or belongs to a mountain region.
