| 释义 | 〔mammoth〕The mammoth was introduced to the English-speaking world after mammoth skeletons were discovered in Siberia,so it is no surprise that this creature's name is taken from Russian,even though the animal roamed over Eurasia and North America.The Russian word, nowmamant' but formerlymamot as well, was borrowed into English in variant spellings.It was first recorded in 1706in the formMammuth, but in 1763 we find the formmammon. It is said that the Russian word is a borrowing of an Ostyak word (the Ostyak people live in western Siberia),but this has not been proved.猛犸这个词是在西伯利亚发现猛犸骨骼之后才引入英语的，所以这种动物的名称起源于俄语也就不足为奇了，尽管这种动物曾在欧亚大陆和北美到处游荡。俄语中的这个词，现在是mamant' ， 但以前为mamot ， 被引入英文时出现了不同的拼写方法。最早的记载是1706年，其形式是Mammuth， 但在1763年，其形式就变成了mammon。 据说俄语这个词也是源于一个奥斯加克语中一个词（奥斯加克人居住于西伯利亚西部），但这种说法还没有得到证实〔gad〕To move about restlessly and with little purpose.See Synonyms at wander 闲逛：无目的地不停歇地到处游荡 参见 wander〔kick〕"spent the next three years in Italy, kicking around the country on a motor scooter"(Charles E. Claffey)“后来三年在意大利开着小轮摩托车到处游荡”(查尔斯E.克拉弗)〔wander〕To move about without a definite destination or purpose.徘徊：没有明确目标或目的到处游荡 |
