flea-ridden 的详细解释
flea-ridden 是一个英语复合形容词,由名词flea(跳蚤)和过去分词ridden(受…困扰的;充斥…的)组合而成。其核心含义描述某物(通常指动物、场所或物品)被跳蚤大量寄生或严重侵扰的状态,隐含肮脏、不卫生或疏于管理的负面意味。
字面意义
指生物(如猫、狗)或环境(如地毯、旧家具)寄生大量跳蚤。跳蚤是小型吸血寄生虫,常见于卫生条件差的区域。例如:
"The stray dog was flea-ridden and malnourished."(这只流浪狗布满跳蚤且营养不良。)

引申意义
可隐喻形容事物低劣、破败或缺乏维护,如"a flea-ridden hotel"(跳蚤泛滥的旅馆)暗指环境脏乱、质量堪忧。
两者结合后,自16世纪起用于描述跳蚤侵扰现象。
