英文词源

darkling (adv.)

"in the dark," mid-15c., from dark (n.) + now-obsolete adverbial ending -ling (compare headlong).

But having nothing to do with the participial -ing it does not mean growing dark &c.; from the mistaken notion that it is a participle spring both the misuse of the word itself and the spurious verb darkle. [Fowler]

双语例句

1. He reeled and recovered , the darkling abyss below beckoning to him, inviting his fall.

他蹒跚着, 努力恢复平衡.
