Summer goes back to the Indo-European root .sem-, meaning "summer.” From a suffixed form of this root came the prehistoric Common Germanic word.sumaraz, the ancestor of Old Englishsumor and its descendant, Modern English summer. This is the only Indo-European root referring to a season that has survived in an English name for a season.Of the other three,.wesr-, "spring,” has produced words such as vernal; ghyem-, "winter,” has given us words such as hibernate; andesen-, "harvest, fall,” has yielded earn ( from the prehistoric Common Germanic word.aznōn, "to do harvest work, serve"). Winter does, however, go back to the Indo-European root wed-, "water, wet.” From the formwe-n-d- of this root with the nasal infix -n- was derived the Germanic word .wintruz, with the underlying meaning "wet season" and the literal meaning "winter.”The Germanic word is the source of Old Englishwinter, the ancestor of Modern English winter. 冬，春，夏，秋。说出季节名spring 和 fall 的来历不是很难， 但如果没有一些背景知识，不可能知道winter 和 summer 的词源。 Summer 可追溯到印欧语中的词根 sem- ，意思是“夏天”。 给这个词根加后缀后又转化为史前的普通日尔曼词sumaraz， 这是古英语中sumor 的前身，由此又发展来现代英语中的 summer。 这是印欧语中表季节的词根在英语中作为季节名保留下来的唯一一个。另外三个wesr- “春”产生了象 vernal这类的词； ghyem-“冬”又给了我们单词 hibernate； esen- “收获，秋天”衍生出 earn ( 从史前的普通日尔曼词aznon “做收获的工作，服务”而来）。 然而winter 得追溯到印欧词根 wed- “水，湿的”。 由这个词根的we-n-d 形式和鼻音中缀 -n- 衍生出日尔曼语词 wintruz， 其隐含的意思是“湿润的季节”和字面意义“冬天”。这个日尔曼词是古英语中winter 的前身，也是现代英语 winter 的前身 〔noble〕"a mighty Spanish chestnut, bare now of leaves, but in summer a noble tree"(Richard Jeffries)“一棵巨大的西班牙栗树，现在秃枝枯叶，但夏天非常茂盛威严”(理查德·杰弗里斯)〔passing〕the passing of another summer.又一个夏天的逝去〔furnace〕the furnace of the sun; an attic room that is a furnace in the summer.阳光下的闷热地带；在夏天象火炉一样的阁楼〔summer〕Grown during the season of summer:在夏天种植的：〔summer〕The usually warmest season of the year, occurring between spring and autumn and constituting June, July, and August in the Northern Hemisphere, or, as calculated astronomically, extending from the summer solstice to the autumnal equinox.夏天，夏季：通常是一年中气温最高的季节，出现在春季和秋季之间，在北半球包括六月、七月和八月或按天文学的方法计算，自夏至日起到秋分日止〔high〕Summer temperatures reached an all-time high.夏天气温达到有史以来最高峰〔estivation〕The act of spending or passing the summer.避暑：渡过夏天的行为〔gossamer〕somer [summer] [probably from the abundance of gossamer during early autumn when geese are in season] * see summer 1somer [夏天] [可能源于初秋期间当鹅处于发情期时，蛛丝的数量较多] * 参见 summer1〔wake〕Bears wake for spring, summer, and fall and hibernate for the winter.熊在春天、夏天和秋天保持清醒，在冬季冬眠〔summer〕summered the herd in the south meadow.夏天在南边的草地上放羊〔move〕Woolens move slowly in the summer.夏天毛制品滞销〔mantle〕"On a summer night . . . a mantle of dust hangs over the gravel roads"(John Dollard)“一个夏天的夜晚，灰尘象幕似的笼罩在砾石路上”(约翰·多拉尔德)〔graduate〕After a summer of diving instruction, they had all graduated to back flips.经过一个夏天的跳水指导，他们都掌握了后空翻〔rise〕The sun rises early in the summer.夏天的太阳出来得早。〔scarf〕"Americans scarf down 50 million hot dogs on an average summer day"(George F.
