单词 | 潮湿 |
释义 | 〔loblolly〕Loblolly is a combination of lob, probably an onomatopoeia for the thick, heavy bubbling of cooking porridge, and lolly, an old British dialect word for "broth, soup, or any other food boiled in a pot.” Thus, loblolly originally denoted thick porridge or gruel, especially that eaten by sailors on board ship. In the southern United States, the word is used to mean "a mudhole; a mire,” a sense derived from an allusion to the consistency of porridge. The name loblolly has become associated with several varieties of trees as well, all of which favor wet bottomlands or swamps in the Gulf and South Atlantic states. Lobolly 是 lob ,可能是模仿熬粥时沉重的冒泡声,和意为“锅里煮着的清汤、浓汤或其他任何食物”的古英语方言 lolly 的结合。这样, loblolly 本来表示稠粥或稀粥,尤指船上水手们所喝的粥。在美国南部,这个词用于表示“泥坑;泥沼”,这个含义是以粥的浓稠性这一暗示而来。 loblolly 这一名称也与几种树木有关,这些树都适于生长在墨西哥湾及南大西洋各州的潮湿洼地或沼泽里 〔puddling〕Compaction of wet material, such as clay, in order to make a watertight paste.和泥:将黏土等潮湿的物质捣密以制成防水浆〔brooklime〕Either of two related trailing plants,Veronica americana of North America and V. beccabunga of Eurasia, growing in wet or moist places and having clusters of small blue or purplish flowers. 美洲婆婆纳:两种有亲缘关系的蔓生植物的一种,北美洲的美洲婆婆纳 和欧亚大陆的 有柄水苦荬 生长在潮湿的地方,有小的蓝色或紫色花簇 〔dew〕Something moist, fresh, pure, or renewing:清爽:潮湿、清新、纯洁或复苏的东西:〔mesarch〕Originating in a moderately moist habitat.
