1. 1馴化(過程或結果)

    Domestication is the name of the process — and of the result — when a wild animal (or plant) is slowly made able to live with people, work for them, or be kept as a pet. “The domestication of the dog” is the whole story of how wolves became dogs. It is the noun that sits next to the verb : you an animal; that change is domestication. Historians and use it a lot. It is not a kitchen-table word, but school books and documentaries use it freely. Though actually, people sometimes talk as if one person could finish domestication in a season. With animals it usually takes many generations. Teaching one puppy to sit is training. Domestication is the deeper, slower change of a kind of animal, or of a crop.
