prosaic
英 [prə(ʊ)'zeɪɪk]
美 [prə'zeɪk]
助记提示
1、from Latin prosa oratio "straightforward or direct speech" (without the ornaments of verse).
2、也就是说prose是由prosa oratio简写、缩略而来。
3、prose is short form of provorsus "(moving) straight ahead".
4、pro- "forward" + vers- / vors- + -us => provorsus => prorsus => prosus => prosa (feminine of prosus) => prosa oratio => prose.
5、散文其实就是一种平铺直叙的文体嘛，没有什么装饰啊，修饰啊什么的。
6、prosa (feminine of prosus) + -ic.
