长释义：
A strong grip or an unyielding advocate might both be described as tenacious, a word whose synonyms include resolute, firm, and persistent. The word comes from the Latin root tenax, which means "holding fast." The basketball commentator Marv Albert, impressed by a defender’s skill, once uttered the sound bite, "That’s some tenacious D!" ("D" is short for "defense.") The musicians Jack Black and Kyle Gass borrowed the phrase for the name of their comedy-rock band, Tenacious D.
强有力的抓握或不屈不挠的倡导者都可以被描述为顽强，这个词的同义词包括坚决、坚定和坚持不懈。这个词来自拉丁词根 tenax，意思是“紧紧抓住”。篮球评论员 Marv Albert 对一名防守者的技术印象深刻，曾说出这样的话：“那是一些顽强的 D！” （“D”是“防御”的缩写。）音乐家杰克·布莱克 (Jack Black) 和凯尔·加斯 (Kyle Gass) 借用了这个短语作为他们的喜剧摇滚乐队 Tenacious D 的名字。
