    词源词根法
    英语单词balk的最初含义是农田中没犁过的条状区域,即两条犁沟之间的田脊或分割两块农田的田埂。作为动词时,表示“在犁地时留下田脊或田埂不犁”,引申为“(有意)忽略”。由于犁过的农田都是平整的,而田脊或田埂高高突出在农田之上,因此balk作名词时又衍生出“障碍、梁木”等含义,作动词时又衍生出“阻碍、阻止、退缩、止步不前”的含义。在体育运动中,还可以表示动作中断违规,如棒球运动中投手做出投球动作后却没有投球,跳远运动员跑过起跑区域后没有起跳,马术表演的马在栏杆前突然止步不前。=balk n障碍,田脊,田埂,梁木vt.忽略,阻碍,阻止vi.犹豫,退缩,止步不前,(棒球)佯投.
