shoot打猎

【使用地区】：英国

【释义】：

A hunting expedition on which small game such as birds and rabbits are shot．When an Englishman goes after foxes and deer，however，he goes on a fox or deer hunt．British wit Oscar Wilde defined a fox hunt as“The unspeakable in full pursuit of the uneatable．”

此词意为“打猎活动”，尤指射杀小鸟野兔等小猎物的打猎活动。然而，当英国人打鹿和狐狸时，叫作“fox hunt(猎狐)或deer hunt(猎鹿)”。英国才子王尔德把fox hunt定义为“坏得难以形容的坏蛋全力追捕难以下咽的猎物。”
