MEANDER in Context

“Seeking a respite from the frantic pace of the digital world, we turned to ‘The Unwinding: And Other Dreamings.’ … [We] meandered through the pages, absorbed in peaceful fragments of prose and Morris’s elaborate watercolors.” — Julian Wray and Sam Mathisson, The Michigan Daily, 10 Dec. 2021

为了从疯狂的数字世界中寻求解放出来,我们转向“’The Unwinding: And Other Dreamings.’「解脱:与其他的梦想」”。 …… [我们] 历经曲折地穿过书面,潜心在散文的宁静画面和莫里斯精心制作的水彩画中。”

Meander comes from Greek Maiandros, an old name for a winding river in Asia Minor that is now known as the Menderes. Despite this origin, the word is more commonly used to refer to a person’s wandering course than a river’s.

Meander 来自希腊 Maiandros,它是小亚细亚一条蜿蜒河流的旧称,现在被称为 Menderes。 尽管有这个起源,但这个词更常用于指人的闲逛,而不是河流中。
