Cobweb 是英語中一個常見的名詞,主要含義指蜘蛛在牆角或隱蔽處織成的網狀結構,尤其指長期積灰的陳舊蛛網。該詞源于中古英語的 coppeweb,由 coppe(蜘蛛,源自古英語 ātorcoppe,意為“毒蟲”)和 web(網)組合而成,反映了其與蜘蛛活動的直接關聯。
從科學角度,cobweb 的形成與蜘蛛分泌的絲蛋白有關。這類蛛絲具有黏性,用于捕捉昆蟲,但隨着時間的推移,蛛網可能因灰塵積累或破損失去功能性,形成典型的“廢棄蛛網”形象。在文學和隱喻中,cobweb 常象征混亂、陳舊觀念或無實質内容的事物。例如,莎士比亞在《仲夏夜之夢》中用“cobweb”比喻輕盈脆弱的物質。
權威詞典如《牛津英語詞典》将 cobweb 定義為“蜘蛛網,尤指老舊且覆有灰塵的網”,并收錄了其延伸含義,如“錯綜複雜的事物”。生物學領域則通過蛛網結構研究蜘蛛的行為模式,例如圓蛛科(Araneidae)的織網習性。
