字源 arroyo (n.)
"watercourse, dry streambed," 1845, a California word, from American Spanish, in Spanish, "rivulet, small stream," from Latin arrugia "shaft or pit in a gold mine," apparently a compound of ad- "to" (see ad-) + ruga "a wrinkle" (see rough (adj.)).
不择手段背单词 n. 旱谷, 干涸的沟壑(被断断续续的河水断开的山谷) = gully = ravine = chasm = cleft = clough = gorge = gulch; 小溪
【记】读: 好肉呦. 我说, 你这人儿背词儿咋就那么肉呢! 意思就是你背词儿太慢了. 如果一条河的流速肉到一定的程度, 我们就叫它小溪, 如果肉到断流的程度, 我们就叫它旱谷或干涸的沟壑.
【类】grotto: cavern = arroyo: channel 小洞穴对巨洞 = 小河对海峡
趣味全助记 【记】a river, o=I, y=v;音:肉油,热油,干涸河床里流着热油
