之前都是回答字辩的问题比较多,这次来主动分享几个我觉得有趣的字
这些应该是课本不会出现的,你可以猜猜看可以怎么表达吗?
斗鸡眼 O型腿 鱼尾纹 香港脚
先别急着翻页,先一个一个猜猜看吧!
斗鸡眼 cross-eyed a.
例句 The attacker is described as about 25, cross-eyed, 5ft 7ins,
with broad shoulders and chubby.
O型腿 bowlegged or bow-legged a.
像弓一样的弯腿,注意后面的ed要发 i短元音或ə
这个leg当动词时的过去式和当形容词的ed型发音规则不同,像是
belove, learn有类似的情况,不过这是另一个课题了
例句 Wow! That dude sure is bowlegged. His knees curve outward
further than his shoulders are wide! (Urban Dictionary)
鱼尾纹 crow's-foot n. 两只眼睛都有当然是 crow's-feet 复数
注意crow发音是 o元音,不是wow的au
例句 Botox has been making a lot of headlines for its use in
cosmetic procedures to reduce frown lines and crow's-feet.
香港脚 athelete's foot n. hmm这个倒是没有听过在用复数的
例句 Athlete's foot, known medically as tinea pedis, is a common
skin infection of the feet caused by fungus. (Wikipedia)
Many people will have athlete's foot at some time throughout
their life. (NCBI)
