| 释义 | dory (once / 3543 pages) 1n 2n A dory is a large, flat-bodied fish with silver scales and big eyes. Most dories are found in the deepest waters of the ocean. The term dory includes fish from several different families. One thing they all have in common is their silvery color, which explains their name, rooted in the Middle French doree or "gilded one." Another kind of dory is a small, light fishing boat. A dory typically has a flat bottom and wide planks on its sides, and is designed to carry a large, heavy load, especially considering its small size.
