词汇 | stomach |
词根词缀 | 词源: c.1300, "internal pouch into which food is digested," from O.Fr. estomac, from L. stomachus "stomach, throat," also "pride, inclination, indignation" (which were thought to have their origin in that organ), from Gk. stomachos "throat, gullet, esophagus," lit. "mouth, opening," from stoma "mouth" (see stoma). Applied to the openings of various internal organs, especially the stomach, then to the stomach itself. Some 16c. anatomists tried to correct the sense back to "esophagus" and introduce ventricle for what we call the stomach. Meaning "belly, midriff, part of the body that contains the stomach" is from c.1375. Figurative senses in L. extended into M.E. (cf. "relish, inclination, desire," 1513). The verb meaning "to tolerate, put up with" is from 1577; earlier sense was opposite: "to be offended at, resent" (1523), from L. stomachari "to be resentful." 词根记忆: n. 胃,胃口;肚子,腹部vt.承受,忍受The engineer examined the engine of the mining machine for stomach.工程师检查采矿机的发动机是否有肚子痛. |
