  • 记忆方法

    词源词根法
    来自古英语isaern,铁,铁制品,铁制武器,来自PIE*eis,坚硬的,坚固的。部分词源学家进一步推测来自PIE*h1esh2r,血,词源同sanguine,血红色。由血引申词义血红,铁水,铁。同时,由于血在古代观念中的神圣含义,引申词义神圣的,强烈的感情,衍生ire,estrus,hieratic等。参照blood,bless.

    小知识

    Iron can refer to a common metal. It can also be that thing you use to get wrinkles out of your clothing. If you’re planning to wear linen, you might need an iron to smooth it out.

    When you use an iron to iron your clothes, you’re also using both the noun and verb form of iron. The noun describes the appliance and the verb describes the action of using it. Iron can also refer to a golf club, like that 5-iron you always use. If you’ve ever been a cattle rancher, you might also be familiar with a branding iron, a tool used to brand skin with a mark of ownership.
