| 词汇 | worm |
| 词源 | worm. The lowly worm’s name has a grand history. Worm de- rives from the Latin vermis, which first meant “dragon” or “ser- pent.” In time, however, it came to include the garden worm as well. Today worms are often raised on worm farms and sold to fishermen and to gardeners who use them to help aerate the soil. |
