Question

shale n.页岩(一种由似泥土细粒的沉淀物层组成的易分裂的岩石) shale (n.) 1747, possibly a specialized use of Middle English schale "shell, husk, pod" (late 14c.), also "fish scale," from Old English scealu (see shell (n.)) in its base sense of "thing that divides or separate," in reference to the way the rock breaks apart in layers. Compare Middle English sheel "to shell, to take off the outer husk" (late 15c.). Geological use also possibly influenced by German Schalstein "laminated limestone," and Schalgebirge "layer of stone in stratified rock." 【记】源自shell，叠成一层层壳状的页岩；【相关】shoal 浅滩, shallow 浅薄
