单词 | 航海 |
释义 | 〔nautical〕Of, relating to, or characteristic of ships, shipping, sailors, or navigation on a body of water.船舶的,航行的,海员的,航海的:船舶的、航行的、海员的、航海的,或属于、关于船舶的、航行的、海员的、航海的,或具有其特征的〔theodolite〕An optical instrument consisting of a small mounted telescope rotatable in horizontal and vertical planes, used to measure angles in surveying, meteorology, and navigation.经纬仪:一种由一个小的可在水平面和垂直面旋转的望远镜构成的光学仪器,用于勘测、气象和航海中测量角度〔practical〕gained practical experience of sailing as a deck hand.作为水手获得了航海的实践经验〔seafaring〕seafaring peoples of the world; seafaring nations.世界上以航海为业的人;以航海为业的民族〔outside〕My outside interests are skiing and sailing.我的业余爱好是滑雪和航海〔ballyhoo〕The origin ofballyhoo has been the subject of much speculation. This spelling has actually graced four different words:ballyhoo, "sensational advertising"; ballyhoo, a spelling of balao, a kind of fish; ballyhoo, a part of the name ballyhoo bird, about which more later; andballyhoo, a sailor's epithet for a disliked ship. This lastballyhoo (first recorded in 1836) was thought to be related to, or the same as, the word ballahou, from Spanishbalahú, "a type of schooner common in the Antilles.” First recorded in 1867,ballahou, besides being a term for a specific kind of ship, was also used contemptuously of inferior ships.But the connection between these sailing terms or the name of the fish and our wordballyhoo, first recorded in 1901, has not been established. There may, however, be a tie betweenballyhoo and the creature called a ballyhoo bird. According to a July 1880 article inHarper's, the bird had four wings and two heads and could whistle through one bill while singing through the other.Anyone who has ever hunted a snipe will know what hunting ballyhoo birds was like.单词ballyhoo 的来源一直存在种种推测。 这个词的拼写实际上包含有四个不同的词:ballyhoo, 意为“耸人听闻的广告”; ballyhoo, 是 balao 的一种拼写,是一种鱼; ballyhoo, 是 ballyhoo bird 的一部分,其出现更晚; 还有一个是ballyhoo, 是水手对不喜欢的船的称呼。 这最后一个ballyhoo (最早记载于1836年)被认为与 ballahou 有关或相同, 该词来自西班牙语balahu, 意为“流行于安的列斯群岛的一种纵帆船。” 首次记载于1867年,ballahou 一词除表示一种特殊的船外, 还表示同时代的劣等船。但这些与航海有关的词或鱼类名称的词与我们所使用的、首次记载于1901年的一词ballyhoo 之间尚未建立联系。 然而也许ballyhoo 一词与被称为 ballyhoo bird 的生物之间有某种联系。 根据1880年7月哈帕斯 杂志中一篇文章的描写, 这种鸟有四翅双头,可以用其中一张嘴吹哨,同时用另一张嘴唱歌。任何曾经猎过鹬鸟的人将会知道捕猎“巴里嗬”鸟是怎样的一种情景〔luff〕To flap while losing wind. Used of a sail.无风张帆:无风时张帆。用于航海〔Pyxis〕New Latin Pyxis (nautica) [(mariner's) compass] 新拉丁语 Pyxis (nautica) [(航海看的)罗盘钟] 〔triangulation〕The location of an unknown point, as in navigation, by the formation of a triangle having the unknown point and two known points as the vertices.三角测量:通过以分别作(顶点)的两个已知点和一个未知点形成一个三角形,来求出或定位该未知点,如在航海中〔southeast〕The direction or point on the mariner's compass halfway between due south and due east, or 135° east of due north.东南方:正南和正东方向之间的航海罗盘方位或点,或是正北偏东135°〔triply〕a triply redundant navigational system.一个三度冗长的航海系统〔Vinland〕An unidentified coastal region of northeast North America visited by Norse voyagers as early as c. 1000.

There is thus no reason to conclude that this use of the verb is the result of a confusion ofcareen with career, "to rush.” Whatever the origin of this use, however,it is by now so well establishedthat it would be pedantic to object to it.在多数时候,careen 作为动作动词使用时具有速度迅捷的含义。把该动词在航海方面的意思引申,使其义应用于汽车的运行,也许这样就很自然地产生了迅捷的含义; 因为汽车只有在高速行驶时通常才careen ,即突然地侧倾或偏斜。 据此,如果下结论说动词的这种用法是混淆了careen 和表示“急驰,猛冲的” careen 的结果,这是毫无道理的。 然而,不论这用法的起源是什么,如今它已得到确认,要对此表示异议的话未免过于迂腐了〔southwest〕The direction or point on the mariner's compass halfway between due south and due west, or 135° west of due north.西南方:位于正南和正西正中间的航海罗盘方位,或指正北偏西135°〔example〕a unique episode, without example in maritime history.在航海史上没有先例的独特事件〔storekeeper〕One who is in charge of receiving or distributing stores or supplies, such as military or naval supplies.仓库管理员:负责接收或发放库存商品或供应(如军事或航海供应)之人〔Gilbert〕English navigator who urged exploration for the Northwest Passage, established in Newfoundland (1583) the first English colony in North America, and was lost at sea during a homeward voyage.吉尔伯特,汉弗莱:(1539?-1583) 英国航海探险家,他促进了西北航线的探险,在纽芬兰(1583年)建立了英国在北美的第一个殖民地,一次返程航行时他在海上失踪〔seafaring〕Following a life at sea:以航海为业的:过海上生活的:〔Columbus〕Italian explorer in the service of Spain who determined that the earth was round and attempted to reach Asia by sailing west from Europe, thereby discovering America (1492).
