    In golf, to putt is to tap the ball softly so it rolls along the short, smooth grass toward the hole. You do this on the green, close to the hole — not when you send the ball a long way from far off.

    In golf在高爾夫球裡, to putt推桿這個動作 is是 to tap the ball softly輕輕點球 so it rolls along the short, smooth grass toward the hole讓球沿著短而平的草地滾向球洞。You do this你做這個動作 on the green是在果嶺上, close to the hole靠近球洞的地方 — not when you send the ball a long way from far off不是從很遠的地方把球打過去的時候。

    The stroke itself is also called a putt: she sank a long putt. use the word all the time; it is ordinary in that world, not fancy. A putter is the special club for this, or the person doing it.

    The stroke itself這個動作本身 is also called也叫做 a putt推桿: she sank a long putt她推進了一記長推桿。Golfers高爾夫球手們 use the word all the time隨時都在用這個字; it它 is ordinary in that world在那個圈子裡很普通, not fancy不是什麼特別的字。A putter推桿桿 is是 the special club for this做這個動作用的專門球桿, or the person doing it或指做這個動作的人。

    Though actually, people stretch it a little: putt around can mean to play a bit of easy golf, and putt-putt can mean mini-golf.

    Though actually不過其實, people大家 stretch it a little把這個字延伸用一下: putt aroundputt around can mean to play a bit of easy golf可以指輕鬆打一點高爾夫, and putt-putt而putt-putt can mean mini-golf可以指迷你高爾夫。

    The little engine sound putt-putt is a different, copy-the-noise word, not this one. And this is not the everyday verb put (to place something). Different word, different sound.

    The little engine sound putt-putt引擎的putt-putt聲 is是 a different, copy-the-noise word一個不同的擬聲字, not this one不是這個字。And而且, this這個字 is not不是 the everyday verb put (to place something)日常放置東西那個動詞put。Different word不同的字, different sound不同的發音。

組成Borrowed from Scots putt (“to put”). Compare Middle Dutch putten (“to dig a pit”). People used to derive it from Old English putian (“to push; thrust; put; place”), but that story is no longer accepted. Dutch used the word in a description of golf in an early 1600s schoolbook by Pieter van Afferden. Noun and verb share the same story. All of these sit on Proto-Germanic *putōną.
