vocabulary简明 No, it's not just a tiny organ pouch that requires surgery when it begins to hurt; an appendix is also additional material at the end of a book or paper.
vocabulary扩展 You would think that the appendix at the end of a book came after appendix the body part, wouldn't you? After all, our bodies have been around a lot longer than books have. But you'd be wrong. The name for the organ, also known as vermiform appendix, came into use later, no doubt because it is something attached — as its Latin root is translated — to the intestines just as an appendix is attached to the end of a book.
柯林斯解释
In British English, the plural form appendices /ə'pendɪsiːz/ is usually used for meaning 2. 英国英语中,义项2的复数形式通常为appendices /ə'pendɪsiːz/。
