Question

skid n.打滑；（飞机的）起落橇；滑动垫木；<俚>下滑v.打滑 (1) 公路上留下的滑行痕迹说明这辆车当时开得有多快。(2) 他的事业是每况愈下。(3) 她正在走霉运。(4) 汽车因车轮刹住而打滑。(5) 我试图煞车,结果我们向一侧滑到沟里。 Does skid sound Scandinavian? Because that's where etymologists think the word came from. It makes sense, since there's all that ice up there. The Vikings were most likely skidding around way before snow tires and anti-lock brakes came about to stop all the slippery fun. But a skid that gets out of control is never any good — that's why when someone's life slides into the dumps, you can say they "hit the skids."
