〔tetralogy〕A series of four related dramatic, operatic, or literary works.四部曲：有关戏剧或文学作品的四个系列〔thespian〕Of or relating to drama; dramatic:戏剧的：属于或有关戏剧的；戏剧性的：〔tragic〕Relating to or characteristic of dramatic tragedy or tragedies:有关戏剧中悲剧的或以此为特点的：〔showcase〕In these last two usages the verb no longer has any connection to the idea of a showcase,nor does it retain any hint of its theatrical character.The development of the verb nicely exemplifies the process whereby metaphors are eviscerated after death.这最后两种动词用法和陈列柜的意思没任何联系，它也没有保留任何有关戏剧特征的暗示。这个动词的发展很好地展示了隐喻消亡之后靠什么除去其精髓的过程 |
