n.河馬(hippopotamus的復(fù)數(shù)形式)
An order of hooved mammals of the subclass Eutheria (including pigs and peccaries and hippopotami and members of the suborder Ruminantia) having an even number of functional toes. 有蹄哺乳動物的一目,屬于真獸亞綱(包含豬、野豬、河馬和反芻亞目的成員),功能腳趾為偶數(shù)。
Once we came across a school of hippopotami, which rose, and bellowed dreadfully at us within ten or a dozen fathoms of the boat. 有一次我們遇到一群河馬,離我們的船有十至十二碼的樣子,正一沉一浮地怪叫著朝我們游來,樣子十分可怕。
Visitors may have the opportunity to enjoy seeing with their own eyes giant animals such as Elephants and Hippopotami devour their food ravenously. 最近隆重推出"動物進食大觀"和"猴山新貌"等項目,游客們可親眼目睹河馬狂張大口、大象巧用長鼻和狼吞虎咽的情景。
And wallowing in the water holes and dams, you'll spot the ears and eyes of hippopotami which weigh between 200 and 300kg (441 and 661lbs). 你還會看到在池塘和水庫中打滾的河馬露出的耳朵和眼睛,它們重200到300公斤(441到661磅)。
some hippopotami. 好幾頭河馬。
