| 单词 | 蝗虫 |
| 释义 | 〔lobster〕A lobster and a locust may share a common source for their name,that is, the Latin wordlocusta, which was used for the locustand also for a crustacean that was probably a kind of lobster.We can see thatlocusta would be the source of locust, but it looks like an unlikely candidate as the source oflobster. It is thought, however, that Old Englishloppestre, the ancestor of lobster, was formed from locusta and the suffix-estre used to make agent nouns (our -ster ). The change from Latinlocusta to Old English loppestre may have been influenced by Old English loppe, meaning "spider.” 龙虾和蝗虫的名字可能源于同一出处，即拉丁词Locusta ， 它用于指蝗虫，也用于表示可能是一种龙虾的甲壳类动物。我们可以看到，Locusta 可能是 locusa 的来源， 但不象是lobster 的来源。 但是，lobster 在古英语里的前身 loppestre 被认为是由 locusta 形成的， 后缀-estre 用于组成代理者的名词（现在的 -soer ）。 从拉丁文locusta 到古英语 loppstre 的变化可能受古英语 loppe 的影响（意为“蜘蛛”） 〔langouste〕from Latin locusta [lobster, locust] 源自 拉丁语 locusta [龙虾，蝗虫] 〔churr〕The sharp whirring or trilling sound made by some insects and birds, such as the grasshopper and partridge.颤鸣声，唧唧叫声：尖锐的呼声或颤声，由一些昆虫和鸟发出，如蝗虫和鹧鸪〔West〕American writer known for his novels of dark comedy, such asMiss Lonelyhearts (1933) and The Day of the Locust (1939). 韦斯特，内森耐尔：(1903-1940) 美国作家，以他的黑色喜剧小说而著名，如《“寂寞芳心”小姐》 （1933年）和 《蝗虫的一天》 （1939年） 〔plague〕a plague of locusts; a plague of accidents.蝗虫灾害；不测之灾〔off〕living off locusts and honey.以吃蝗虫和蜂蜜为生〔phase〕the white color phase of a weasel; the swarming phase of locusts.鼬鼠的白色外表阶段；蝗虫的群居期〔orthopteran〕An insect of the order Orthoptera, characterized by folded membranous hind wings covered by narrow, leathery forewings and mouthparts that are adapted for chewing.
