| 词汇 | ankle |
| 词根词缀 | 词源： O.E. oncleow "ankle," from PIE base *ank- "to bend" (cf. Skt. angam "limb;" see angle (n.)). The modern form seems to have been infl. by O.N. ökkla or O.Fris. ankel, which are immediately from the P.Gmc. form of the PIE root (cf. M.H.G. anke "joint," Ger. Enke "ankle"); the second element in the O.E., O.N. and O.Fris. forms perhaps suggests claw (cf. Du. anklaauw), or it may be from infl. of cneow "knee," or it may be dim. suffix -el. 词根记忆： n. 足踝,踝关节Thanks to the bankrupt banker, my ankle avoided an injury.多亏那位破产的银行家,我的脚踝免受伤害. |
