| 释义 | 〔oyster〕A special delicacy.一种特殊的美味佳肴〔lemon〕Although we know neither where the lemon was first grownnor when it first came to Europe,we do know from its name alone that it came to us from the Middle East,because we can trace its etymological path.One of the earliest if not the earliest occurrences of our word is found in a Middle English customs document of 1420-1421.The Middle English word, which was of the formlimon, goes back to Old Frenchlimon, showing that yet another delicacy passed into England through France.The Old French word probably came from Italianlimone, another step on the route that leads back to the Arabic wordlaymūn or līmūn, which comes from the Persian wordlīmūn. 虽然我们既不知道柠檬是在哪儿被最早种植的，也不知道它是什么时候传到欧洲的，但是我们却能单从它的名字确切地判断出它是从中东地区传到我们的，因为我们可以追溯出它的语源的发展道路。如果不是最早出现的话，最早的发现记录于1420年至1421年之间的一份中古英语海关文件中。这个中古英语单词的形式是limon ， 可以追溯到古代法语中的limon 一词， 它表明又一种美味佳肴由法国传入了英国。这个古代法语单词很可能来源于意大利单词limone ， 这就更朝前一步地回到了阿拉伯语中的laymun 或 limun ， 这一单词来源于波斯语limun 〔kickshaw〕Fancy food; a delicacy.精美食物：美味佳肴〔whitebait〕The young of various fishes, especially the herring, considered a delicacy when fried.银鱼，小腓鱼：各类鱼的幼苗，尤其是鲱鱼，煎炸后为一道美味佳肴〔dish〕Chowder is a good dish for a cold winter evening.羹汤是寒冷的冬天晚餐时的美味佳肴〔ambrosial〕Suggestive of ambrosia; fragrant or delicious.See Synonyms at delicious 美味佳肴的；芳香的，美味的：使人想到神仙食品的；芳香或美味的 参见 delicious〔delicacy〕Something pleasing and appealing, especially a choice food.美味佳肴：使人愉悦高兴的，吸引人的东西，尤指食物〔charm〕delicacies that beguile even the most discerning gourmet;即使是最识货的美食家也会着迷的美味佳肴；〔delectable〕a feast of home-cooked delectables.赏心悦目的自制美味佳肴〔ply〕plied their guests with excellent food.不断地给他们的客人端上美味佳肴 |
