词汇 safari
词源
safari. Safaris are getting back to the original meaning of the word. Once exclusively hunting trips into the African jungle complete with guns, they are now often sight-seeing excursions for camera-toting tourists more in keeping with the Arabic word safara, “travel,” that is the root of safari. The word safari became well known when Teddy Roosevelt took a hunting trip into the bush with some 500 porters lugging his supplies, which included abundant cases of champagne. Safari is first recorded, however, in 1907.
