vocabulary简明 The noun tango usually refers to the Argentine tango, a dramatic ballroom dance, and the expressive music that goes along with it.
vocabulary扩展 The tango is known for being a passionate, emotional form of dance in which the dancing couple hold each other closely and make abrupt — yet graceful — movements. The accompanying music is equally dramatic and varied, often featuring many instruments such as violin, piano, and bandoneón, a type of concertina or small accordion. The word tango is of Latin American Spanish origin, probably from an African root word.
