1. 1梭子魚(台灣也說梭魚)。不是鯊魚

    A barracuda is a long, fast fish of warm seas. It has a pointed face and many sharp teeth, and it hunts other fish. and people who live by tropical water know it; some grow very large. In a few places people eat it, though big ones from certain waters can be unsafe. People also stretch the word: they call a ruthless person — someone who goes after others in business or in love — a barracuda. That use is informal and a bit dramatic. Though actually, it is not a shark. It is its own kind of fish, even if the teeth make students guess shark first. The name came into English from Latin American Spanish in the 1600s, and it may go back to a Cariban word, though that last step is not certain.

組成Does not split. First attested in the 1670s, from Latin American Spanish barracuda, perhaps from a Cariban word.
