upon the Lego name by putting together the first two letters of the Danish words Leg and Godt,which
mean"play well. "The name could be interpreted as "I put together" in Latin;it is also similar to the
Greek verb meaning "gather" or"pick up".
     In 1 947,the company enlarged to making plastic toys. At first,the use of plastic for toy production
was not highly regarded by salesmen and consumers of the time. Many of the Lego Group's shipments
were returned,following poor sales. However, Christiansen's son,Godtfred Kirk Christiansen,saw the
great potential(潜能)in Lego bricks to become a system for creative play-As the junior managing
director of the Lego Group,he spent years trying to improve the "locking"ability of the bricks and made
the bricks more versatile(多用途). In 1958, the modem interlocking brick design was finally developed
and patented(获得专利).
