摘　　要：海南渔民《更路簿》中对南海诸岛的地名命名系统,被称为世界上最早、最完整的地名系统。多数都有两篇最主要的篇章,即赴西沙和南沙群岛的更路篇,分别命名为《立东海更路》和《立北海更路》。为何称西沙为"东海"、称南沙为"北海",却众说纷纭。经考证应是海南渔民乘每年的"东北"信风前往西沙、南沙海域故名。The Naming System of Nanhai Islands,used by Hainan Fishermen in Genglubu,is argued as the earliest and the most complete place name system in the world.Most of them contains two major chapters,namely the Road to Xisha island and the Road to Nansha islands,which were entitled as Li Dong Hai Geng Lu and Li Bei Hai Geng Lu respectively.There has been considerable debate about the reason why Xisha is named as"Dong Hai"and"Nansha"as"Beihai".This paper argues that the naming reason relates to the"Northeast"trade winds by which Hainan fishermen ride to Xisha island and Nansha island.
