短释义:
When you cackle, people hear you — it’s annoying to sit in an otherwise quiet restaurant beside a table of people who talk and cackle raucously. The sound the cacklers make can also be called a cackle, a squawking laugh that a chicken might make. Experts think there may be a connection between cackle and the Middle Dutch word for “jaw,” kake, but it’s most likely to be imitative, a word that sounds just like the noise it describes.
咯咯笑是大声、刺耳地笑。你爸爸的笑话可能很糟糕,但很有趣,每次都让你咯咯笑。

当你咯咯地笑时,人们会听到你的声音——坐在一家原本安静的餐厅里,旁边一桌人大声说话和咯咯地笑,这很烦人。咯咯声也可以称为咯咯声,是鸡发出的咯咯笑声。专家认为 cackle 和中古荷兰语中“下巴”一词 kake 之间可能存在联系,但它很可能是模仿性的,这个词听起来就像它所描述的噪音。
