词汇 | burn |
词根词缀 | 词源: 12c., combination of O.N. brenna "to burn, light," and two originally distinct O.E. verbs: bærnan "to kindle" (trans.) and beornan "to be on fire" (intrans.), both from P.Gmc. *brenwanan, perhaps from PIE *bhre-n-u, from base *bhereu- "to boil forth, well up." This root was also the source of O.E. born, burne "a spring, fountain," still common in place names. Meaning "cheat, swindle, victimize" is first attested 1655. Slow burn first attested 1938, in ref. to U.S. movie actor Edgar Kennedy, who made it his specialty. 词根记忆: v. 燃烧,烧着;烧毁;灼伤n.烧伤,灼伤They returned in turn to bury the luxuries burnt in the burst.他们依次返回来埋藏在爆炸中烧毁的奢侈品. |
