本頁推薦單字: hue
-------------------------------------
hub
n.輪轂 [the central part of a wheel, as that part into which the spokes are
inserted.]
spoke:hub=radius:center
輻條匯聚到輪轂=半徑匯聚到圓心
ps.1 Hub = 集線器
ps.2 Hub vs. Switch Hub (弄區網需要的東西唷)
簡單說,hub只能單線傳輸--因為它是用廣播來傳輸的,Switch Hub可以多線傳輸
如果xination沒記錯的話(非專業請原諒),
現在一般的中華電信給的網路設備"小烏龜"--大多是switch hub的
而且具有IP分享器的功能(當然你得是申請固定IP的才會給你這種唷)
hubris
n. 傲慢;驕傲 [excessive pride or self-confidence; arrogance.]
ex. The notion of decoding the brain's commands can seem, on the face of
it, to be pure hubris.
解碼大腦指令的想法乍看起來可能像是十足的狂妄自大。
聯想: hub + ris(e) "中心升起"=傲慢
huckster
n.叫賣的小販(像是水果攤、蔬菜攤等啦) [a retailer of small articles, esp. a
peddler of fruits and vegetables; hawker.]
字源:c.1200, M.Du. hokester "peddler," from hoken "to peddle;叫賣" (see hawk
(v.)) + agent suffix -ster (which was fem. in Eng., but not in Low Ger.).
huckster是從中世紀的荷蘭語來的,=hoken"to peddle;叫賣" " + ster
hue
n.顏色(更專業的術語叫--色相) [the quality of a color as determined by its
dominant wavelength of light]
ps.1 色相
ps.2 HSL和HSV色彩空間 ( Hue + Saturation + light/value)
ps.3 xination的小故事--之前我都是用picasa 2.0來管理圖片的,不過呢,升級到3.0後
多了以顏色搜索的功能,就是你輸入"color:black"就會出現黑色為主的照片,所以color
被當作一個functional word的了,但是我有些圖片的檔名內有color的字,反而就不能搜
索了。解決方法,我將color改成hue...
hulk
n.笨重的船或廢棄的船 [A heavy, unwieldy ship;the shell of a wrecked,
burned-out, or abandoned vehicle, building]
n.大而笨重的人 [One, such as a person or object, that is bulky, clumsy]
《綠巨人浩克》(2003)--科學家布魯斯班經過一次基因實驗意外爆炸之後,每當情緒激動

要將牠緝捕歸案。
hull
