| 词汇 | scram |
| 词源 | scram. Scram, which gives us the pig Latin amscray, meaning the same—beat it!, “get out of here!”—is thought by some se- mantic Sherlocks to be a shortening of scramble, but more likely it comes from the similar German slang schrammen. It is first recorded as underworld and circus slang at the turn of the century. |
