词源：
lurch (n.1)”sudden pitch to one side,” 1784, from earlier lee-larches (1765), a nautical term for “the sudden roll which a ship makes to lee-ward in a high sea, when a large wave strikes her, and bears her weather-side violently up, which depresses the other in proportion” [“Complete Dictionary of Arts and Sciences,” London 1765]. This is perhaps from French lacher “to let go,” from Latin laxus (see lax).When a Ship is brought by the Lee, it is commonly occaſsioned by a large Sea, and by the Neglect of the Helm’s-man. When the Wind is two or three Points on the Quarter, the Ship taking a Lurch, brings the Wind on the other Side, and lays the Sails all dead to the Maſt; as the Yards are braced up, ſhe then having no Way, and the Helm being of no Service, I would therefore brace about the Head ſails ſharp the other Way ….

lurch (n.1)“突然向一侧倾斜”，1784 年，源自早期的 lee-larches (1765)，这是一个航海术语，指的是“一艘船在公海突然向背风方向滚动，当一个大浪击打她，使她的风向面猛烈向上，按比例压低另一面”[“艺术与科学完全词典”，伦敦 1765 年]。这可能源自法语 lacher“放手”，源自拉丁语 laxus（参见 lax）。当一艘船被 Lee 带来时，通常会遇到大海和掌舵人的忽视。当风向四分之一或三点时，船发生倾斜，将风带到另一侧，并且将所有的帆都放在 Maſt 上；当 Yards 被支撑起来时，“he have no Way, and the Helm being no service, therefore I would brace about the Head ſails ſharp the other Way ….
