万物拟声法
英语单词kite来自古英语，原本是一种猛禽的名字，很可以是模仿这种猛禽的叫声来命名的。17世纪60年代，人们开始用kite来表示“风筝”，因为风筝在空中飞行的样子与kite这种猛禽很像。=kite[ka?t]n风筝来自古英语cyta，鹰，鸢，拟声词，模仿这种鸟的叫声，引申词义风筝，因飞翔的风筝如雄鹰展翅而得名。后用于习语go fly a kite，放风筝，放某人的鸽子，引申词义欺骗，伪造支票等。

小知识
A kite is a diamond-shaped flying toy on a string that's usually made of fabric or paper. If someone tells you “to go fly a kite,” they want to get rid of you. If you follow their directions, however, you will end up having fun.
When you fly a kite, you unspool your string as the kite catches a breeze and rises higher and higher in the air. Kites were first flown in China, most likely around the fifth century BCE. Another kind of kite is the small hawk famous in ancient Egyptian mythology as the animal form taken by Isis when she brought the dead back to life. The toy kite is named after the bird, since they both soar through the air.
