单词 lizard
释义

lizardn.

Brit. /ˈlɪzəd/, U.S. /ˈlɪzərd/
Forms: Middle English lesard(e, lisard, Middle English liserd, lusarde, Middle English lesere, lizart, 1500s lisarde, lessert, lucert, lycert, lysert, lyzard, lyzerd, leazard, Scottish lyssard, 1600s lyser, lezard, lisart, lyzard, lizzard, 1500s– lizard.
Etymology: < Old French lesard (masculine), lesarde (feminine) (modern French lézard, lézarde) (= Provençal lazert, lauzert, Spanish lagarto, Portuguese lagarto, Italian lacerta, lucerta), representing Latin lacertus (masculine), lacerta (feminine), lizard; the ending in Old French would normally have been -ert, -erte, but was assimilated to the suffix -ard.
1.
a. A name popularly applied to reptiles of the genus Lacerta, and to other reptiles resembling these in shape and general appearance, having an elongated body, a long tail, four legs, and a scaly or granulated hide. Ordinarily, the name relates to the small animals of the genus Lacerta and other genera of the order Lacertilia; by extension, animals like the crocodile, the agama, the iguana, or the great fossil saurians, are often spoken of as lizards. In scientific books, the name is commonly used as coextensive with that of the order Lacertilia, which includes many animals which, as lacking either limbs or scales, or both, would not be popularly regarded as ‘lizards’.
