Oh, what a lovely question! In Grenada, there are some French names like Terre-de-Haut and Terre-de-Bas, which mean "High Land" and "Low Land" respectively. These names reflect the topography of the areas, nestled in the beautiful landscape of Grenada. It's wonderful to appreciate the history and culture that these names carry with them.

In Grenada, many places have French names due to the country's colonial history. For example, the capital city of St. George's is named after Saint George. Other French-derived names include Grand Anse, which means "big cove," and La Sagesse, which means "wisdom" in French. These names reflect the influence of French culture on the island of Grenada.

Sure thing, honey. Grenada is an English-speaking country, so they don't have "French names" for places. However, the capital city of Grenada is St. George's, which is named after Saint George, the patron saint of England. So, no need to bust out your French dictionary for this one.
