英文释义

名词 n.
  1. A storyteller, especially a person noted for telling stories with skill and wit.
    — He was tempted to try the last door—to look into the room of evil fame; but he reflected that this would be indiscreet, since Colonel Capadose handled the brush—as a raconteur—with such freedom. There might be a ghost and there might not; but the Colonel himself, he inclined to think, was the most mystifying figure in the house.
动词 v.
  1. To make witty remarks or stories.
    — The two of them turn to each other and raise an eyebrow each, their signal to slip into alternating raconteuring.
