  • noun.1 "tree skin, hard covering of plants," c. [century] 1300, from a Scandinavian source akin to Old Norse börkr
  • noun.2 "any small vessel or ship," early 15c., from French barque
  • verb.1 "utter an abrupt, explosive cry" (especially of dogs), Middle English berken (c. 1200), bark (late 15c.), from Old English beorcan "to bark," from Proto-Germanic *berkan (source also of Old Norse berkja "to bark") 即把börkr和berkja二合一了。
  • noun.3 dog sound, Old English beorc, from bark (v.)
  • verb.2 "strip off the bark" (of a tree), 1540s, from bark (n.). Transferred sense "strip or rub off the skin" is from 1850. It also meant "kill a squirrel [松鼠] or other small animal by percussive force [震动力] by shooting the bullet into the tree immediately below it," thus preserving the specimen [标本] intact (the technique is attested [show/prove/declare to be true] by 1828).

1. savoury food tastes of salt;
2. a savoury smell or taste is strong and pleasant but is not sweet
