Why Is Illinois Called Illinois? #history #shorts #usashorts

Ever wonder why the "s" in Illinois is silent? Illinois wasn't named by Americans, it comes from the Illiniwek, a confederation of Native tribes, recorded by French explorers in the 1600s. The French spelled it using their own system, and that silent "s" survived centuries of language change. This is the real history behind one of America's most mispronounced state names.
