※ 引述《prodigywu (Soccer Fever)》之銘言:
: 1. royalty:payment = subpoena:writ
: 這個該不會是種屬關係吧!?
royalty有個secondary meaning是專利權稅 版稅
M-W:a payment to an author or composer for each copy of a work sold or to an
inventor for each item sold under a patent
subpoena(傳票)就是用writ(令狀)定義的喔
a writ commanding a person designated in it to appear in court under a
penalty for failure
: 2. grazing:foragers = stalking:hunters
: 完全看不懂關係在哪
graz是放牧 foragers是搶劫糧食者 to wander in search of forage or food
stalk是盯梢 hunters是獵人,
感覺上foragers and hunters都是搜尋者,
不過不太確定grazing: foragers的關係能不能這樣比
: 3. chicanery:clever = ??
: (a) expertise:knowledgeable
: (b) tactlessness:truthful
: 我想問b為什麼比a好?
因為chicanery跟tactlessness都有負面意思
: 4. liable<>stable
: liable有不穩定的意思嗎??
: 感謝回答~~~!!
容易出錯的
being in a position to incur
