"A little snake" is the sense of the Latin worddracunculus to whichrankle can be traced, dracunculus being a diminutive of dracō, "snake.” The Latin word passed into Old French, asdraoncle, having probably already developed the sense "festering sore,”because some of these sores resembled little snakes in their shape or bite.The verbdraoncler, "to fester,” was then formed in Old French. The noun and verb developed alternate forms without thed-, and both were borrowed into Middle English, the nounrancle being recorded in a work written around 1190, the verbranclen, in a work probably composed about 1300. Both words had literal senses having to do with festering sores.The noun is not recorded after the 16th century,but the verb went on to develop the figurative senseshaving to do with resentment and bitterness with which we are all too familiar.Rankle 这个词有不停的埋怨、折磨人的疼痛以及小蛇这三个意思。 “小蛇”是拉丁语dracunculus 的词义， 该词同时也是rankle 的词源， dracunculus 是意为“蛇”的 daaco 的小词尾。 该拉丁词进入古法语成为draoncle 时， 可能已有“折磨人的痛苦”这一词义，因为这种痛苦类似于小蛇的形状和撕咬。意为“骚扰，折磨”的动词draoncle 形成于法语中。 名词和动词去掉d- 后发展了各自的形式并都被借入中古英语， 名词rancle 第一次记载于1190年的一部作品中， 动词ranclen 记载于大约作于1300年的一部作品中。 两个词的本义都与“折磨人的疼痛”有关。名词在16世纪后就不见使用了，但动词却不断发展，后来便有了我们熟知的与抱怨和恼怒相关的比喻义了〔diddle〕Perhaps ; akin to Old English dydrian [to deceive,] 可能为 ；类似于 古英语 dydrian [欺骗] 〔trehala〕A sugarlike, edible substance obtained from the pupal case of an Old World beetle of the genusLarinus. 虫茧蜜：一种从茎虫属 茎虫的蛹壳上提取出的类似于糖的可食物质 〔drudge〕From Middle English druggen [to labor] ; akin to Old English drēogan [to work, suffer] 源自 中古英语 druggen [劳动] ；类似于 古英语 drēogan [工作，受苦] 〔sigma〕[of Phoenician origin] ; akin to Hebrew sāmek [samekh] [源于腓尼基语的] ；类似于 希伯来语 sāmek [希伯来语的第十五个字母] 〔consul〕from Latin cōnsul ; akin to possibly akin to cōnsulere [to take counsel] 源自 拉丁语 cōnsul ；类似于 可能类似于 cōnsulere [听取意见] 〔chimere〕perhaps from Anglo-Latin chimēra ; akin to probably akin to Spanish chamarra, zamarra [type of garment] perhaps from Anglo-Latin chimēra ；类似于 probably akin to Spanish chamarra, zamarra [type of garment] 〔theta〕[of Phoenician origin] ; akin to Hebrew ṭēt [teth] [源于腓尼基文] ；类似于 希伯来语 ṭēt [θ] 〔scuff〕[Probably of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Old Norse skūfa [to push] [可能源于斯堪的纳维亚语的] ；类似于 古斯堪的纳维亚语 skūfa [推] 〔caviar〕from Persian khāvyār ; akin to khāyah [egg] 源自 波斯语 khāvyār ；类似于 khāyah [蛋] 〔earthstar〕A fungus of the genusGeastrum, related to and resembling the puffballs and having an outer covering that splits open in a starlike form. 量湿地星：一种类似于马勃属于地星属 的菌，其外部表皮层裂开呈星状 〔pheasant〕Any of several other birds that resemble the pheasant, such as the partridge.雉科鸟：类似于雉的其它鸟类，如山鹑〔hug〕Probably of Scandinavian origin ; akin to Old Norse hugga [to comfort] 可能为斯堪的纳维亚语源 ；类似于 古斯堪的纳维亚语 hugga [安抚] 〔tackle〕from Middle Dutch or Middle Low German ; akin to perhaps akin to Middle Dutch taken [to seize, grasp] 源自 中古荷兰语与中古低地德语 ；类似于 可能类似于 中古荷兰语 taken [擒住，抓住] 〔belch〕or from *bealcian ; akin to bealcan 或源自 *bealcian ；类似于 bealcan 〔pismire〕mire [ant] [probably of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Danish myre mire [蚂蚁] [可能来自斯堪的纳维亚语] ；类似于 丹麦语 myre 〔banana〕Any of several treelike Asian herbs of the genusMusa, especially M. acuminata, having a terminal crown of large, entire leaves and a hanging cluster of fruits. 芭蕉属植物：一种类似于树的亚洲芭蕉属 草本植物，尤指 尖叶芭蕉属， 有大而完整的顶生叶冠和悬挂成串的果实 〔drab〕[Possibly of Celtic origin] ; akin to Scottish Gaelic dràbag ; akin to Irish Gaelic drabóg [slattern,] [可能来自凯尔特语] ；类似于 苏格兰的盖尔语 dràbag ；类似于 爱尔兰盖尔语 drabóg [不整洁] 〔wake〕[of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Old Norse vök [源于斯堪的纳维亚语] ；类似于 古斯堪的纳维亚语 vök 〔chinquapin〕[Of Algonquian origin] ; akin to Virginia Algonquin chechinkamin [chestnut] [从阿尔贡金语中来] ；类似于 弗吉尼亚阿尔贡金语 chechinkamin [栗] 〔bylaw〕Middle English bilawe [body of local regulations] ; akin to Danish by-lag [township ordinance] 中古英语 bilawe [地方法规体制] ；类似于 丹麦语 by-lag [镇区的法令] 〔fop〕Middle English [fool] ; akin to probably akin to Middle English fob [trickster, cheat] * see fob 2中古英语 [傻子] ；类似于 可能类似于 中古英语 fob [耍计谋者，骗子] * 参见 fob2〔hobbit〕An imaginary creature resembling a diminutive human being, having some rabbitlike characteristics, and being naturally peace-loving, domestic, and sociable.小矮人：一种类似于矮人的想象中的动物，有一些兔子的特征，生性酷爱和平、驯服及易于交往〔pan〕A vessel similar in form to a pan, especially:盘状的器皿：形状类似于盘子的器皿，尤指：〔detergent〕A cleansing substance that acts similarly to soap but is made from chemical compounds rather than fats and lye.清洁剂：一种用化合物而不是油脂和碱液制成的用于清洁的物质，其作用类似于肥皂〔whirligig〕[possibly of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to akin to gig 1[可能是起源于堪的纳维亚语] ；类似于 类似于 gig1〔scream〕[possibly of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Old Norse scræma [可能起源于斯堪的纳维亚语的] ；类似于 古斯堪的纳维亚语 scræma 〔dollop〕Earlier [tuft, clump] ; akin to perhaps akin to Norwegian dolp [lump] 方言 [簇，团] ；类似于 可能类似于 挪威语 dolp [团] 〔duck〕possibly from Old English *dūcan ; akin to Middle Low German and Middle Dutch dūken 可能源自 古英语 *dūcan ；类似于 中世纪低地德语与中古荷兰语 dūken 〔gavotte〕A French peasant dance resembling the minuet.加伏特舞：一种法国农民的舞蹈，类似于小步舞〔scour〕[probably of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Old Norse skūr [shower] [有可能起源于斯堪的纳维亚语的] ；类似于 古斯堪的纳维亚语 skūr [阵雨] 〔gloss〕[Perhaps of Scandinavian origin] ; akin to Icelandic glossi [a spark] * see ghel- 2[可能源于斯堪的纳维亚语] ；类似于 冰岛语 glossi [火花，火星] * 参见 ghel- 2〔cisco〕Any of several North American freshwater fishes of the genusCoregonus or Leucichthys, related to and resembling the whitefish. 加拿大白鲑，湖青鱼：一种白鲑属 或 大口白鲑属 的北美淡水鱼，与白鲑相关或类似于白鲑 |
