dizzy-doctor：古人医在心,心正药自真

【造词理据】象形。源自PIE词根*dheu-（灰尘、烟雾、蒸汽），D形表团装物体，比喻指团雾、蒸汽团，14世纪时指“有旋转感的”，后指“头晕的”，后来指“愚蠢的少女（Matthew xxv）”，尤指19世纪70年代以来的金发女郎。也指眼花缭乱的。

【例句】Afterward, she says she feels a little dizzy but energized enough to run around the block a couple of times. 然后，她说有点晕眩，但浑身却充满力量，完全能绕街区跑上好几回。

【同根词】dizzy; enthymeme; fewmet; fume; fumigation; funk; perfume; sfumato; typhoid; typhoon; typhus.

【造词理据】拟声。源自PIE词根*dhe-（放置），模仿放置时落地的声音，表示放置、做，中古英语时变为助动词。

【例句】The tall man held out a hand. I gazed at it, not sure what I was supposed to do. 那个高大的男人伸出一只手。我呆呆地盯着它，不知道该怎么做。
