英文词源

totter (v.)
c. 1200, "swing to and fro," of uncertain origin, perhaps from a Scandinavian source (compare dialectal Norwegian totra "to quiver, shake"). Meaning "stand or walk with shaky, unsteady steps" is from c. 1600. Related: Tottered; tottering.

中文解释

teeter摇摇欲坠,步履蹒跚。totter摇摇欲坠,步履蹒跚。2. teet- / tot- 很像两边各坐着一个人在玩跷跷板的样子。3. 谐音“托他儿”---他儿子很胖、太重了,托着他儿子走路的话,当然就会蹒跚、踉跄。想想大头儿子小头爸爸吧。
