短释义：
Whine is both a noun and a verb. The verb means “to complain bitterly.” Kids tend to cry or even yell when they whine, though most adults settle for constant griping and an unwillingness to let it go already. “Poor me” and “It isn’t fair” — these are common whines. Whine can describe a high-pitched, screeching noise, like the squeak made by an old, broken machine.
当你发牢骚时，你会以一种可怜的、令人恼火的方式抱怨。如果你的蛋糕比她的大，你妹妹会抱怨的。

呜呜声既是名词又是动词。这个动词的意思是“痛苦地抱怨”。孩子们在发牢骚时往往会哭泣，甚至大喊大叫，但大多数成年人都会满足于不断地抱怨，并且不愿意放手。 “可怜的我”和“这不公平”——这些都是常见的抱怨。呜呜声可以描述一种尖锐的、刺耳的噪音，就像一台旧的、坏掉的机器发出的吱吱声。
