| 词源 | window and windrow. “In all the proof that has reached me,” author Gordon Dorrance (1890–1957) wrote to his publishers, “windrow has been spelled window. If, in the bound book, windrow still appears as window, then neither rain nor hail nor gloom of night nor fleets of riot squads will prevent me from assassinating the man who is responsible. If the coward hides behind my finding, I shall step into Scribner’s and merrily shoot up the place Southern style.” |
