今天要學的一個詞是swell,就是腫,to become larger and rounder than normal – used especially about parts of the body。例如:
Her ankle was already starting to swell。
可是,swell這個詞還可以用在別的場合,指東西的增長,to increase in amount or number。例句:
The river was swollen with rain。
Attendance figures have swollen to 37,000 this season。
Vacationers swell the local population in summer。
