短释义：
Iridescent came to be in 1796, when some enthusiastic word maker took the Latin word iris, which means “rainbow,” and morphed it into an English word that describes anything giving off a luminous, rainbow sheen or that changes color in the light. It’s a great descriptive word — if you can resist the urge to spell it with an extra “r.”
虹彩是一个形容词，意思是有光泽和珍珠般的，散发出像浮油或珍珠一样的灿烂光泽。

Iridescent 诞生于 1796 年，当时一些热心的造词者将拉丁语 iris（意思是“彩虹”）变形为英语单词，用来描述任何发出发光、彩虹光泽或在光线下改变颜色的事物。这是一个很好的描述性单词——如果你能克制住在拼写它时多加一个“r”的冲动。
