英文释义

名词 n.
  1. Prodigal expenditure on food. archaic,rare,uncountable
    — So soon as a rogation for a benison by the concionator, transpired, fourchettes, and all implements for the transportation of prog from the table to oral apertures, were movent and sonorific. Such abligurition; such lycanthropic edacity, lurcation, ingurgitation and gulosity; such omnivorousness and pantophagy; and such a mutation and avolation of comestibles, had never fallen under my vision in any antecedent part of my sublunary entity. Truly, anamnestic of [Lord] Byron’s “dura illia messorum!”

词源

PIE word
