释义 | 〔izzard〕The curious formizzard, meaning "the letter z ,” sounds a lot like words such as lizard and gizzard. That's because izzard was probably modeled on them to form a humorous version of the name of the letter that appears as zed in Great Britain and ezed in Scotland. Izzard is practically limited to certain fixed regional expressions such as from A to izzard, "from beginning to end,” and not to know A from izzard, "not to know even the most basic things.” 奇特的词语izzard ,意为“字母 z ”,这个词听起来很像 lizard 和 gizzard 等单词。这可能因为 izzard 是模仿它们构成的字母(英语中的 zed ,苏格兰语中的 ezed )名称的幽默形式。 Izzard 实际上仅限于某些固定的区域词语,如 from A to izzard "从头到尾,彻底地"和 not to know A from izzard “连最基本的事情都不了解;一窍不通” 〔comb〕An implement, such as a card for dressing and cleansing wool or other fiber, that resembles a hair comb in shape or use.梳棉机:一种工具,如梳洗羊毛或其他纤维的梳棉机,在外形或用途上很像梳子 |
