| 词汇 | sound |
| 词源 | sound; sounding. The sounding that determines the depth of the water by means of a line and lead is of no relation to the word sound, meaning something audible, which derives from the Latin sonus. Sounding comes from the Old English word sund, for “water, sea, or swimming.” The sound that is an inlet of the sea has the same roots. |
