snarl
verb, noun核心畫面
A dog with its lips pulled back: a low rough sound held in the throat, and the teeth in plain view. It is one warning that you can hear and see at the same moment, and it is aimed at somebody.

可以想成一隻狗把嘴唇往上拉開的那一瞬間：喉嚨裡壓著一個低低的、粗粗的聲音，牙齒同時整排露出來。這個畫面裡聲音和表情是同一件事，而且明白地對著某個人或某隻動物：再靠近就不客氣了。人在氣頭上講話的時候，用的其實是同一張臉、同一種壓在喉嚨裡的聲音，所以英文把這隻狗的動作整個借過來形容人。From the word’s history
This snarl is a frequentative of an earlier verb snar, 'to growl', probably imitative in origin and related to German schnarren, 'to rattle'. The word began as a copy of the sound itself.
這個 snarl 來自更早的動詞 snar（低吼）加上 -le 這個「一再重複」的尾巴，來源多半是在模仿聲音本身，德文的 schnarren（嘎嘎作響）跟它同族。也就是說，這個字一開始就是那個聲音的抄寫。

snarl
verb, noun核心畫面
A line that has been pulled once too often: the loops lock, the ends disappear inside, and nothing will come free until someone picks the knot apart. Hair, fishing line, cables, cars on a road, forms in an office — anything long and thin that crosses itself too many times ends up in this shape.
可以想成一條被拉來拉去的線：圈圈互相套住，越扯越緊，線頭全藏進去了，除非有人一圈一圈把它挑開，不然誰也動不了。頭髮、…更多收起
可以想成一條被拉來拉去的線：圈圈互相套住，越扯越緊，線頭全藏進去了，除非有人一圈一圈把它挑開，不然誰也動不了。頭髮、釣線、耳機線、路上的車、辦公室裡的表格——只要是細細長長、互相交錯太多次的東西，最後都會變成這個樣子。這一族的每個意思，都可以看成同一團結被放在不同的東西上。From the word’s history
This snarl comes from Middle English snarlen, a frequentative of snaren, 'to trap, to tangle' — that is, snare plus -le. The trap and the knot are the same idea: loops that close on what passes through them.
這個 snarl 來自中古英文 snarlen，是 snaren（設陷阱、纏住）的反覆形，也就是 snare 加上 -le。陷阱和繩結本來就是同一回事：繩圈套住穿過去的東西，然後收緊。
