Spring Is in the Air!
Today we talk about a time when half the world is waking from the dark, cold winter months. Spring!
in the spring怎么读
When the weather becomes warm, many people experience spring fever.
Usual “symptoms” of spring fever include not being able to focus on school or work, taking long walks, or falling in love.
So, are you actually sick when you have spring fever?
Originally, yes. Spring fever used to refer to a real illness. When the weather turned warm, some people started having sore throats and headaches.
The definition of “spring fever” slowly changed in the early 1800s.
People started using the expression to describe a sudden increase of romantic feelings.
These days, we use “spring fever” to describe a restless feeling after the long, cold days of winter.
But the word “spring” is not just a season. It is also a verb that means something happening or appearing quickly.
When you put “spring” and “life” together, you get "spring to life". This expression means something suddenly becomes very active or perhaps seems more alive!
There is another way we use “spring”, as a description.
In the case of a spring chicken, “spring” means young. Also called a “springer,” these young chickens have very tender meat. However, “spring chicken” is also an informal, humorous way to refer to someone who isn’t young at all, as in “no spring chicken.” But be careful when using this expression. It could be a little disrespectful.
