Speakers from the Lower South, on the other hand, are more likely to refer to the same insect as amosquito hawk or, in the South Atlantic states, askeeter hawk. The imagery outside the South alludes more to the insect's shape than to its behavior or diet:Upper Northern speakers call it adarning needle or a devil's darning needle ; those in Coastal New Jersey, aspindle ; and Northern Californians, anear sewer. 各地对蜻蜓的许多不同叫法为美国的方言边界提供了很好的依据。对蜻蜓叫法最多的是南部，在那里最常用的是snake doctor （因民间认为蜻蜓照看蛇而得名）。中部有与此相应的叫法：snake feeder。 而南部较南端的人则通常把蜻蜓叫作mosquito hawk ， 南大西洋诸州又把它称为skeeter hawk。 南部以外的其它地方更多地根据蜻蜓的外形而非行为或食物为之命名：北部较北端的人把它叫作darning needle 或 devil's darning needle ； 新泽西州海岸一带叫spindle ； 而北加利福尼亚人则叫ear sewer 〔haddock〕A food fish(Melanogrammus aeglefinus) of northern Atlantic waters, related to and resembling the cod. 黑线鳕：生长于大西洋北部水域的（黑线鳕 鳕科） 食用鱼，与鳕鱼有亲缘关系，外形上相似 〔cocoon〕Something suggestive of a cocoon in appearance or purpose:某物在外形或目的上暗示为茧：〔pot〕Something, such as a chimney pot or a chamber pot, that resembles a round cooking vessel in appearance or function.壶状物：外形或功用与圆形炊具相似的东西，例如烟囱顶管或尿壶〔cockroach〕The word forcockroach in Spanish is cucaracha, which should certainly set anyone with an eye for etymology to thinking.Users of English did not simply borrow the Spanish word, however.Instead, they made it conform in appearance to other English words:cock, the word for rooster, and roach, the name of a fish. We do not know exactly why these words were chosenother than their resemblance to the two parts of the original Spanish word.We do know that the first recorded use of the word comes from a 1624 work by the colonist John Smith.The form Smith used,cacarootch, is closer to the Spanish. A form more like our own,cockroche, is first recorded in 1657. cockroach 一词在西班牙语中是 cucaracha ， 这当然使人们去思考语源。然而英语使用者不轻易地借用西班牙词。相反的，他们使它与其他英语单词的外形一致：cock ，意为公鸡的单词，以及 roach ，鱼的名称。 我们完全不知道这些单词是如何选择的，而不像西班牙原单词的两个部分。我们的确知道首次有记录使用该单词是在自由移住民约翰·史密斯1624年的作品中。史密斯使用的形式是cacarootch， 接近于西班牙语。 更加像我们自己的形式的cockroche ，在1657年首次有记录 〔Giacometti〕Swiss sculptor, painter, and exponent of surrealism who is best known for his elongated sculptures of human figures, such asWalking Man (1960). 贾科尼亚特提，阿尔贝托：(1901-1966) 瑞士雕刻家、画家、超现实主义者，他最著名的是他对人体外形的拉长的雕刻，如《行走的人》 （1960年） 〔comb〕An implement, such as a card for dressing and cleansing wool or other fiber, that resembles a hair comb in shape or use.梳棉机：一种工具，如梳洗羊毛或其他纤维的梳棉机，在外形或用途上很像梳子〔pedigree〕grue [crane (from the resemblance of a crane's foot to the lines of succession on a genealogical chart)] from Vulgar Latin *grūā from Latin grūs gru- * see gerə- 2grue [鹤（家系谱上从鹤足的外形到遗传基因）] 源自 俗拉丁语 *grūā 源自 拉丁语 grūs gru- * 参见 gerə- 2 |
