But as the United States grew, most of the Cherokee were forced to relocate, or made to live in a new place even though they didn't want to.
但當(dāng)美國擴張的時候，大多數(shù)卻洛基人被迫遷移，或被強制生活在一個新地方，盡管他們不愿意。
The forced relocation is called the Trail of Tears because many Cherokee died while they were going to the new lands further west.
