单词 | 垂直方向 |
释义 | 〔fall〕A sudden drop from a relatively erect to a less erect position.突然俯身低下:从垂直方向上相对高的位置降到低的位置〔loop〕A flight maneuver in which an aircraft flies a circular path in a vertical plane with the lateral axis of the aircraft remaining horizontal.环飞:一种飞行表演,一架飞机做垂直方向环形飞行,同时飞机侧轴保持水平〔acrostic〕An acrostic gives the reader two for one,and the etymology of the word emphasizes one of these two.Our word goes back to the Greek wordakrostikhis, "acrostic,” which is a combination of Greekakron, "head,” and stikhos, "row, line of verse.” Literallyakrostikhis means "the line at the head,” emphasizing the fact that an acrostic has in addition to horizontal rows a vertical row formed of the letters at the "head" or start of each line.In ancient manuscripts, in which a line of verse did not necessarily correspond to a line of text,an acrostic would have looked particularly striking, with each of its lines standing by itself and beginning with a capital letter.Our word for this type of composition is first found in English in the 16th century.离合诗一词实际上有两种含义,在此这个词的语源只强调其中的一种。此词可追溯到希腊词akrostikhis “藏头诗”, 是希腊字akron “头,”和 stikhos “诗行”的合并。 akrostikhis 本来指“在开头的诗行”, 强调一首离合诗除了水平方向的行数外,还有由每一行的“头”或起首词组成的垂直方向的诗行。在古代的作品中,一诗行并不一定要和文章中的一行相对应。一首离合诗,当其每一行单列出来,且以一大写字母开头, 那就非常引人注目了。在英语中首次用藏头诗一词表示这种作品是在16世纪 |
