vocabulary简明 An amble is a leisurely, pleasurable walk. Care to take an amble down a pleasant country road instead of reading the rest of this word description? That would certainly be understandable.
vocabulary扩展 You can use amble as either a noun meaning "a stroll" or as a verb meaning "to walk in a slow, leisurely way." You might decide to amble, or take an amble, on over to the snack table and grab a brownie. This word comes from the Latin ambulare, which means "to walk about," as in ambulatory. Weirdly enough, for a long time it was only used for horses or for those on horseback. We use it for people now, but it still retains some of its horse-like country feel.
