Did You Know?
Lightning strikes more than once in the history of fulminate. That word comes from the Latin fulminare, meaning "to strike," a verb usually used to refer to lightning strikes—it is struck from fulmen, Latin for "lightning." When fulminate was taken up by English speakers in the 15th century, it lost much of its ancestral thunder and was used largely as a technical term for the issuing of formal denunciations by ecclesiastical authorities. In time, its original lightning spark returned, describing intense strikes of a tirade.
Lightning strikes 『闪电袭击』在历史上不止一次发生。 这个词来自拉丁语 fulminare,意思是“to strike『打击』”,通常用来指lightning strikes的动词——它来自 fulmen,拉丁语中的“lightning『闪电』”。 15世纪,讲英语的人开始使用 fulminate 时,它失去了许多关于thunder(的用法),主要用作教会当局发布正式的谴责技术用语。 随着时间的推移,最初的说法又回来了,描述长篇大论式的猛击。
