    谐音记忆法
    谐音:死他可(他可死了),所以引申为词义:僵硬
    词源记忆法
    词源词根法:《权力的游戏》中的史塔克(Stark)家族所在的北方大陆,长年积雪,环境严酷,也许正是因此得名。词根-star-指“硬”,环境很硬即不温柔,因而严酷,正如hard既指“硬”又指“困难的”。starch(淀粉;上浆)同源,人们用淀粉为织物上浆,使其变得硬挺。来自古英语stearc,僵硬的,严厉的,严重的,粗糙的,残酷的,来自Proto-Germanic*starkaz,僵硬的,来自PIE*ster,僵的,硬的,固定的,词源同startle,sterile.引申诸相关词义。词义演变比较hard.

    小知识

    Stark means “complete or extreme,” like the stark contrast between your music taste — punk and weird metal — and your mom's, with all her 1950's doo-wop favorites.

    In describing a place, stark means “providing no shelter or sustenance.” A barren desert or a room with no furniture or curtains is stark. It can also mean “severe, stern, or austere,” like the stark beauty of the rocky cliffs in the west of Ireland. Stark can also be used to mean “totally.” If you are called stark, raving mad, there's no question about it: you are acting completely crazy.
