英文释义

名词 n.
  1. The head of a nunnery.
    — Each of the nuns was heard in her turn, while the others waited with the domina in the adjoining vestry.
  2. A dominatrix.
    — >Couple of articles about professional dommes, […] It's written "domina". Period. Even in English. If you can't stand Latin endings, I'll grudgingly concede the androgynous abbreviation "dom". But a pseudo-French bastard "domme" really has no right to live, not even on a terminal screen.
  3. An ancient Roman lady.
    — A precious article is the paint with which the Roman domina was beautified; it was well worthy of the case of ivory and rock-crystal in which it was preserved.
