英语词汇trugen stroke的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Trugen stroke. Outstanding British amateur swimmer John Arthur Trudgen (1852–1902), introduced the Trugen stroke to Europe in 1893, after seeing it used in South America. The stroke, employing a double overarm motion and a scissors kick, is regarded as the first successful above-water arm action used in swimming. Trudgen popularized the idea of minimizing wa- ter resistance by bringing both arms out of the water, which paved the way for the reception of the now common Australian crawl adopted from South Sea natives. His stroke was some- times called the Trudgeon, another misspelling of the swim- mer’s name.
