gargoyle

n. 滴水嘴獸


from wiki

滴水嘴獸，建築輸水管道噴口終端的一種雕飾。滴水嘴獸，英語 gargoyle 或 gurgoyle
，來自法語 gargouille，原義為「喉」，參見拉丁語 gurgulio，gula。

大多數滴水嘴獸是怪物形狀。傳說墨洛溫王朝克洛塔爾二世的大臣，魯昂（Rouen）主教
St. Romanus（「Romain」，631年 - 641年），曾講述他如何在一個被釋放的囚犯的幫
助下活捉了怪獸 Gargouille，把魯昂從它的威脅中拯救出來。Gargoyle 的怪物形狀據說
能嚇退惡靈，故常用來闢邪。為了紀念 St. Romain，魯昂大主教頒布諭令在聖徒遺物（
reliquary，relic）遊行日釋放一名囚犯。

滴水嘴獸這個術語通常應用於中世紀的作品，但這種把水輸上房頂再噴出，而不是由下水
管傳輸的設計方法在各個時代都被會被採用。在埃及，滴水嘴獸可在平頂的神廟見到，它
們被用來噴洗神聖的器皿；在希臘的神廟，房頂的水從大理石或赤陶磚制的獅首噴出；在
龐培城也發現了各式各樣動物頭部的赤陶磚滴水嘴獸。


garish

adj.過於艷麗的 [Marked by strident color or excessive ornamentation, gaudy]

ex. garish clothes,colours, lights


聯想：gar(花)-ish


字源：1545, possibly from M.E. gawren "to stare," which is of unknown origin,
perhaps from O.N. gaurr "rough fellow."

garish可能是來自中世紀英文的gawren意思是"to stare 瞪"，更早的源頭不明




garnish

v.給餐桌上的食物裝飾 [To decorate (prepared food or drink) with small
colorful or savory items]

ex. garnished the potatoes with parsley(香芹).


聯想：gar(花)-nish
