| 单词 | 猴子 |
| 释义 | 〔monkey〕Any of various long-tailed, medium-sized members of the order Primates, including the macaques, baboons, guenons, capuchins, marmosets, and tamarins and excluding the anthropoid apes and the prosimians.猴子：任一种长尾、中等体型的灵长类动物，包括猢狲、狒狒、卷尾猴、狨和小绢猴，不包括类人猿和原猴类〔goatee〕When assessing American contributions to the English language and to fashion,let us not forget thegoatee. Early comments on this style of beard appear first in American writings,making this word an Americanism.Although the style raises few eyebrows now,the early comments were not favorable:"One chap's . . . rigged out like a show monkey, with a little tag of hair hangin down under his chin jest like our old billy goat, that's a leetle too smart for this latitude, I think.”This 1842 description, found in William Tappan Thompson'sMajor Jones's Courtship, also reveals the etymology of the word.The first actual recorded occurrence of the word, found in Daniel Lee and Joseph H. Frost'sTen Years in Oregon, published in 1844,also sounds disapproving:"A few individuals . . . leave what is called, by some of their politer neighbors, a ‘goaty’ under the chin.”当评价美国人对英语和其习惯的影响时，让我们不要忘记goatee 这个词。 关于这种样式胡子的早期评论出现于美国作品，这使这个词具有美国特色。尽管这个样式现在很少有人异议，但早期的评论却是反对的：“一个小伙子…打扮得象一只表演的猴子，留着一簇蓬乱的胡子，象一只大公羊，我认为这有点太滑稽了”。这是1842年威廉·塔潘·汤普森在《乔恩上校的求婚》 中的描写， 它也表明了这个词的词源。关于这个词最初的真实记录见于丹尼尔·李和约瑟夫·H·福斯特的《在俄勒冈的十年》 ， 出版于1844年，它也持反对态度：“一些人…留着一撮被他们礼貌的邻人称作‘山羊胡子’般的胡须”〔talapoin〕from Portuguese talapões [pl. of] talapão [monk] 源自 葡萄牙语 talapões talapão的复数 [猴子] 〔patas〕Any of several long-tailed terrestrial monkeys of the genusErythrocebus of western Africa that are closely related to the guenons, especially E. patas, which has reddish fur and a black nose. 赤猴：西部非洲的一种赤猴 属的长尾陆栖猴子，与长尾猴属动物十分相近，尤其是 赤猴 ，具有红色的毛和黑色的鼻子 〔guenon〕Any of various chiefly arboreal African monkeys, primarily of the genusCercopithecus, having long hind legs and a long tail. 长尾猴：树栖的非洲猴子的一种，长尾猴 属，后腿长，尾长 〔macaque〕Any of several short-tailed monkeys of the genusMacaca of southeast Asia, Japan, Gibraltar, and northern Africa. 猕猴：任一种短尾猕猴 属猴子，生活在东南亚、日本、直布罗陀和北非 〔marmoset〕Any of various small, clawed monkeys of the generaCallithrix and Cebuella, found in tropical forests of the Americas and having soft, dense fur, tufted ears, and long tails. 狨：任一种产于美洲热带雨林的狨属 和 悬猴属 体形较小、有尖爪的猴子，皮毛柔软而浓密，耳有丝毛且长有长尾 〔magot〕from Old French magos [a kind of monkey] 源自 古法语 magos [一种猴子] 〔pithecoid〕Of or belonging to a genus(Pithecia) of small, slender South American monkeys related to the titi. 似猴的：属于或关于（狐尾猴属） 属的猴子的，这种猴子生于南美洲、体形小且细长并与伶猴有关 〔Lewis〕British writer and artist.
