| 释义 | 〔squarely〕walked squarely toward the shoplifter and arrested him.笔直地走向窃贼并逮捕他〔master〕a master thief.手段高明的窃贼〔yegg〕A thief, especially a burglar or safecracker.窃贼：小偷，尤指夜盗者或撬盗保险箱者〔burglar〕One who commits burglary.窃贼，夜盗：进行夜间盗窃行为的人〔picklock〕A person who picks locks, especially a thief.撬锁贼，窃贼：撬锁的人，尤指小偷〔corner〕cornered the thieves and captured them.将窃贼逼入角落并擒住他们〔bludgeon〕The origin of some words is simply not known,andbludgeon is one such word. An interesting suggestion is that this word for a club used as a weapon comes from cant,the secret jargon of people such as thieves and beggars,and is related to the wordblood. We do know thatbludgeon is first recorded in a dictionary in 1730, while its first recorded use in running text (1755) is simple and to the point: "These villains . . . knocked him down with a bludgeon.”有一些词的词源不详，bludgeon 就是这样一个词。 一个很有意思的说法认为这个词作武器用棒解释时来源于黑话，是窃贼和乞丐们的秘密行话，与blood 这个词有关联。 然而我们确实知道bludgeou 首次收载于词典中是1730年， 而它第一次用于行文时意思简单明了(1755年）：“这些恶棍…用短棒将他们击倒”〔deterrent〕a deterrent to theft.对窃贼的威慑物，吓唬窃贼的东西〔flash〕Of or relating to thieves, swindlers, and underworld figures.与窃贼有关的：属于或有关小偷、骗子和黑社会人物的〔nest〕Those who occupy or frequent such a place or environment.窃贼，罪犯：占有或常去这地方或环境的人 |
