[單字] 鬥雞眼 O型腿 魚尾紋 香港腳

[sber (...)]

    之前都是回答字辯的問題比較多，這次來主動分享幾個我覺得有趣的字

    這些應該是課本不會出現的，你可以猜猜看可以怎麼表達嗎？


　　鬥雞眼  O型腿  魚尾紋  香港腳


    先別急著翻頁，先一個一個猜猜看吧！










    鬥雞眼  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.
            像弓一樣的彎腿，注意後面的ed要發 i短母音或ə
            這個leg當動詞時的過去式和當形容詞的ed型發音規則不同，像是
            belove, learn有類似的情況，不過這是另一個課題了

    例句  Wow! That dude sure is bowlegged. His knees curve outward
          further than his shoulders are wide!  (Urban Dictionary)


    魚尾紋  crow's-foot n.  兩隻眼睛都有當然是 crow's-feet 複數
            注意crow發音是 o母音，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.


    香港腳  athelete's foot n.  hmm這個倒是沒有聽過在用複數的

    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)
