示範例句 · Example
Mei wore small gold earrings to her cousin's wedding.
逐字美戴著小小的金色耳環去她表姊的婚禮。
earring 是「戴在耳朵上的小飾品」。這個字可以想成是 ear（耳朵）加上 ring（環）拼起來的，畫面就是「掛在耳朵上的一個小環」——記住這個畫面，就會記得它是「一耳一個」，所以英文幾乎都用複數 earrings，一對要說 a pair of earrings。中文的「耳環」在英文裡不分形狀都叫 earring：圓圈狀的是 hoop earrings，小小一顆貼在耳垂上的（中文常說耳釘）是 studs，長長垂下來的是 dangly earrings。
