n.(名词)

    [C]一条〔块〕包 mass of bread shaped and baked in one piece

    v.(动词)

      vi. & vt. 虚度光阴 spend time idly

      Noun:

        a shaped mass of baked bread that is usually sliced before eating

        a quantity of food (other than bread) formed in a particular shape;

        "meat loaf"
        "sugar loaf"
        "a loaf of cheese"

        Verb:

          be lazy or idle;

          "Her son is just bumming around all day"

          be about;

          "The high school students like to loiter in the Central Square"
          "Who is this man that is hanging around the department?"

          v.(动词)

          loaf的基本意思是“虚度光阴”,指某人懒懒散散地混日子,仿佛无所事事,常含轻蔑的意味。

          loaf可用作及物动词,但主要用作不及物动词,常与介词about连用。

          v.(动词)

          loaf, idle, laze, loll, lounge

          这组词都可表示“无所事事”。它们之间的区别是:idle指人或物闲置无事或无目的、无意义地动作,含有指责的意味,有时也指正当的消遣; loaf指混日子或漫无目的地游荡; lounge指懒洋洋地靠着或躺着,引申指闲逛或吊儿郎当地混日子; loll与lounge同意,但更强调懒散或无拘束的样子; laze则侧重于忙人在假日或空闲的时候闲散。

          ☆ 直接源自古英语的hlaf,意为一条面包。
