[Mesorah] Fw: Heh Hayedia

[Michael Hamm]

Me: <<place name that looks like a common noun with an adjective (or
prepositional phrase) modifying it ("the tri-state area", "the Bermuda
Triangle", "the Russian Federation", and, in *some* cases, "the
[Whatever] Sea/River/Territory/Lake/Mountains/Cetera")>>

I didn't give any examples with a prepositional phrase.  The Firth of
Forth, the Isle of Man.
