Such changes, referred to by linguists as taboo deformation,are not uncommon in a name for something that is feared and include,for example, the change in sequence of ther and t that occurred between el lagarto and alligator. An interesting parallel case iscrocodile, which appears in Spanish, for example, ascocodrilo, with a similar difference in the sequence of the r. The earliest recorded form ofalligator that is similar to ours appears in Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet (First Folio, 1623): "In his needie shop a tortoyrs hung,/An Allegater stuft.”在出版于1568年的英国人的劳作 一书中， 约伯·霍特普说“在这条河里我们杀死过一只巨大的蜥蜴或鳄鱼。”这次捕杀导致alligator 作为首次载入英语的实例， 和现代人所熟悉的词形明显不同。Alligator 来源于西班牙语 ellagarto， 意思是“蜥蜴，” 在采用alligator 这个词之前，其发音和词形经过了好几种变化。 这些变化，语言学家们称作禁忌变形，在人们惧怕的某种事物的名称里是常见的，而且还包括r 和 t 在以下两个单词 ellagarto 和 alligator 间依次的变化。 一个同样有趣的例子是crocodile， 在西班牙语里是cocodrilo， 区别在于排列顺序不同的 r 上。 最早记载的alligator 其词形接近我们所使用的词形，出现于莎士比亚的 罗密欧与朱丽叶 中，（1623年第一版对开本）： “在他的日用品店中挂着一个玩具，一只布做的鳄鱼。”〔tegu〕A large, swift teiid lizard(Tupinambis nigropunctatus) of Colombia and Brazil, having yellow spots and stripes over a bluish-black body. 树栖蜥：产于哥伦比亚和巴西的大型、敏捷的臼齿蜥科蜥蜴（黑色双领蜥 双领蜥属） ，在蓝黑色的身体上有黄色斑点和条纹 〔saury〕From New Latin saurus [lizard] 源自 新拉丁语 saurus [蜥蜴] 〔alligator〕lagarto [lizard] from Latin lacertus lagarto [蜥蜴] 源自 拉丁语 lacertus 〔autotomy〕The spontaneous casting off of a limb or other body part, such as the tail of certain lizards or the claw of a lobster, especially when the organism is injured or under attack.自切，自断：自动地分离掉肢体或其他身体部位，如某些蜥蜴的尾巴或龙虾之钳，尤指当身体受伤或受袭击时〔salamander〕A mythical creature, generally resembling a lizard, believed capable of living in or withstanding fire.火蜥蜴，火蛇：一种传说中的动物，象蜥蜴，据说能生长于水中或抵御火〔saurian〕Any of various reptiles of the suborder Sauria, which includes the lizards and in former classifications also the crocodiles and dinosaurs.蜥蜴：任一种蜥蜴目爬行动物，包括蜥蜴，在以前分类中还包括鳄鱼和恐龙〔whiptail〕Any of various New World lizards of the genusCnemidophorus, having a long, slender tail. 鞭尾蜥蜴：一种新世界（澳洲）鞭尾蜥蜴 属的蜥蜴，有长且细的尾巴 〔teiid〕Of or belonging to the Teiidae, a large family of mainly tropical American lizards characterized by a long forked tongue and the absence of bony plates beneath the scales.臼齿蜥科的：属于或关于臼齿蜥（一种主要生长在热带的大型美洲蜥蜴） 科的，其特征为有一条长而分叉的舌头，在鳞片内没有骨片〔titanosaur〕saurus [lizard] * see saurian saurus [蜥蜴] * 参见 saurian〔saurian〕from saurus [lizard] 源自 saurus [蜥蜴] 〔gecko〕Any of various usually small tropical and subtropical lizards of the family Gekkonidae, having toes padded with setae containing numerous suction cups that enable them to climb on vertical surfaces.壁虎：品种繁多，通常是小体型的产于热带和亚热带的蜥蜴，属于壁虎科，足趾具有无数个吸盘，能使它们在垂直的表面上爬行〔caecilian〕Any of various legless, burrowing, wormlike amphibians of the order Gymnophiona, of tropical regions.蚓螈：一种蜥蜴目无腿、善钻洞、蛆样的两栖动物，生长在热带地区〔salamander〕Any of various small lizardlike amphibians of the order Caudata, having porous scaleless skin and four, often weak or rudimentary legs.蝾螈：有尾目中一种像蜥蜴的小型两栖动物，具有多孔无鳞的皮肤和四条常无力或发育不完全的腿〔dinosaur〕Greek sauros [lizard] 希腊语 sauros [类似于蜥蜴的爬行动物] 〔galliwasp〕Any of several long-bodied lizards of the genusDiploglossus, native to marshy regions of Central America and the West Indies. 长蜥蜴：一种双舌娄 属的长体蜥蜴，在中美洲和西印度群岛沼泽地带生长 |
