| 单词 | 地面上 |
| 释义 | 〔chameleon〕The words referring to the animal chameleon and the plant chamomile are related etymologically by a reference to the place one would expect to find them, that is, on the ground.The first part of both words goes back to the Greek formkhamai, meaning "on the ground.” What is found on the ground in each case is quite different, of course.Thekhamaileōn is a "lion [ leōn ] on the ground,” a term translating the Akkadian phrasenēš qaqqari. Thekhamaimēlon is "an apple [ mēlon ] on the ground,” so named because the blossoms of at least one variety of this creeping herb have an applelike scent.Both words are first found in Middle English,chameleon in a work composed before 1382 andchamomile in a work written in 1373. 指动物变色蜥蜴和植物春黄菊的词，在词源上通过人们预期可找到它们的地点（即地面上）而相关联。这两个词的前一部分都可追溯到希腊形式khamai 意思为“在地面上。” 当然，两种情形下在地面上发现的东西是非常不同的。Khamaileon 是指“地面上的狮子 [ leon ]”， 即阿卡得短语nes qaqqari 翻译过来的词语。 Khamaimelon 是指“地面上的苹果 melon ”， 之所以这么命名是因为至少有一类这种蔓生草本植物所开的花具有类似苹果的气味。两个词最初出现在中古英语里面，chameleon 出现于1382年前的一部作品， chamomile 出现于1373年的一部作品里 〔flat〕Stretched out or lying at full length along the ground; prone.平伸的：整个长度伸展或平放在地面上的；与地面齐平的〔spine〕The crest of a ridge.地面上的隆起地带〔parterre〕from par terre [on the ground] 源自 par terre [在地面上] 〔mine〕A deposit of ore or minerals in the earth or on its surface.矿藏：地下或地面上矿石或矿物质的贮藏地〔mofette〕An opening in the earth from which carbon dioxide and other gases escape, usually marking the last stage of volcanic activity.碳酸喷气孔：地面上从中冒出二氧化碳和其它气体的孔道，通常标志火山活动末期〔roque〕A variation of croquet played with short-handled mallets on a hard court that is bounded by a concrete wall against which a ball may rebound and be retrieved.短柄槌球：槌球游戏的变种，用短柄木槌在用水泥墙围住的硬地面上击球，球打在墙上可反弹回来再接住〔gangway〕A narrow passageway, as of boards laid on the ground.窄道：一种狭窄通道，如放在地面上的木板〔drain〕To discharge surface or excess water:注入：排走地面上的或多余的水：〔epigeal〕From Greek epigeios [on the earth] 源自 希腊语 epigeios [在地面上] 〔ditch〕A long narrow trench or furrow dug in the ground, as for irrigation, drainage, or a boundary line.沟渠，排水沟，水道：在地面上狭长的沟渠或细沟，用于灌溉、排水或用作分界线〔sledge〕A vehicle mounted on low runners drawn by work animals, such as horses or dogs, and used for transporting loads across ice, snow, and rough ground.重型运输雪车：用役力动物（如马或狗）拉的一种装有低矮的滑行装置的车辆，用于在冰面、雪地或不平整的地面上运输货物〔hearthrug〕A rug laid on a floor in front of a fireplace.壁炉前地毯：置于壁炉前地面上的那块地毯〔chamaephyte〕Greek khamai [on the ground] * see dhghem- 希腊语 khamai [在地面上] * 参见 dhghem- 〔kibble〕An iron bucket used in wells or mines for hoisting water, ore, or refuse to the surface.吊桶：井或矿井里用来把水、矿石或废料吊到地面上的一种铁桶〔seep〕A spot where water or petroleum trickles out of the ground to form a pool.小水坑，贮油层：水或油慢慢渗透到地面上形成水坑或石油层的地方〔flock〕 Flock is applied to a congregation of animals of one kind, especially sheep or goats herded by human beings,and to any congregation of wild or domesticated birds, especially when on the ground.It is also applicable to people who form the membership of a church or to people under someone's care or supervision.
