Examples
"He rued his small feet, which turned inwards ever so slightly. When standing still, he always had to remember to turn his feet out, to avoid looking pigeon-toed." — Natasha Solomons, Mr. Rosenblum Dreams in English, 2010
"Yes, I rue the day when I am not allowed to squeeze my avocados to see if they are ripe. I don\\\'t want a grocery clerk selecting my corn on the cob. And I certainly want to be able to point toward that third piece of filet mignon in the second row because it is marbled just right." — Jay Heater, The East County Observer (Bradenton, Florida), 21 May 2020
是的,我很懊恼这一天, 我不想别人用捏的方法帮我挑选鳄梨,看看它们是否成熟。我不想让杂货店的店员帮我挑选玉米。我想要第二行的第三片菲力牛排,因为它恰好是大理石花纹。”
Did You Know?
If you remember your high school French, or if you\\\'ve ever strolled down the Rue de Rivoli in Paris, you may have the notion that the English word rue is somehow connected to the French word for "street." In actuality, the French and English words are not related at all. The English rue is originally from the Old English word hrēow, meaning "sorrow." Used as both a noun and, more frequently, a verb, rue is very old, dating back to before the 12th century.
如果您还记得中学时的法语,或者if you\\\'ve ever strolled down the Rue de Rivoli in Paris,您可能会想到英语单词rue与法语的“street「街道」”有某种联系。实际上,法语和英语单词根本不相关。英语rue最初来自古英语单词hrēow,意思是“sorrow「悲伤」”。rue 既用作名词,又用作动词,它的历史很悠久,可以追溯到12世纪之前。
