| 词汇 | love tap |
| 词源 | love tap; love pat. People were probably calling gentle taps indicating love love taps long before Mark Twain used the ex- pression in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court (1889). But Twain’s is the first recorded use of the expression, which may have been suggested by the earlier love pat, recorded in 1876. |
