| 单词 | 贴近 |
| 释义 | 〔groundling〕A plant or an animal that lives on or close to the ground.匍匐植物; 矮生植物：生长在地上或贴近地面生长的植物或动物〔confront〕from Old French [to adjoin] 源自 古法语 [贴近] 〔apposite〕ad- [ad-] ad- [前缀，表示“贴近”] 〔sleuth〕To track down the history of the wordsleuth requires a bit of etymological sleuthing in itself.The immediate ancestor of our word is the compoundsleuthhound, "a dog, such as a bloodhound, used for tracking or pursuing.”This term took on a figurative sense,"tracker, pursuer,”which is closely related to the sense "detective.”Fromsleuthhound came the shortened form sleuth, recorded in the sense "detective" as early as 1872.The first part of the termsleuthhound means "track, path, trail,” and is first recorded in a Middle English work written probably around 1200.The Middle English word, which had the formsloth, with eu representing the Scots development of the Middle English (ō), was a borrowing of the Old Norse word slōdh, "a track or trail.” 要追溯sleuth 这个词的历史， 需要进行一点词源追踪。我们这个词最直接的来源是sleuthhound 这个复合词， 它的意思是“一种用于跟踪和追逐的狗，如警犬”。这个词获得了一种修辞上的意思，“跟踪者，追逐者”，这与“侦探”这个意义非常贴近。从sleuthhound 这个词产生了其缩写的形式 sleuth ， 早在1872年就有了“侦探”这个意思的文字记载。sleuthhound 这个词的前半部意思是“路径、道路或途径”， 它最早被记载在1200年左右的中世纪英语作品中。中世纪英语中的这个词借自古代挪威语中的slōdh ，“路径或途径”，它的形式是 sloth ，其后的 eu 代表了苏格兰语对中世纪英语(ō)的发展 〔apply〕ad- [ad-] ad- [前缀，表示“贴近”] 〔adjacent〕Next to; adjoining:紧接着的：在…之后的；贴近的：〔immediacy〕Something immediate, as in importance.最贴近的东西，如在重要性方面〔shoulder〕In close proximity; side by side.距离非常贴近地；肩并肩地〔crouch〕To press the entire body close to the ground with the limbs bent:蜷伏：四肢弯曲使整个身体贴近地面：〔adjoin〕To be next to; be contiguous to:与…贴近；与…毗连：〔snug〕To nestle; snuggle.舒适地依靠；贴近 |
