<注释>.‘O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!’ He chortled in his joy..Perhaps Lewis Carroll would chortle a bit himself to find that people are still using the wordchortle, which he coined in Through the Looking-Glass, published in 872. In any case,Carroll had constructed his word well, combining the wordschuckle and snort to create it. This type of word is called a blend or a portmanteau word.InThrough the Looking-Glass Humpty Dumpty uses portmanteau to describe the word slithy, saying, .It`s like a portmanteau—there are two meanings packed up into one word. (the meanings being .lithe. and .slimy.).
.‘噢，今天真是太棒了’他高兴地大笑着说.。也许刘易斯·卡罗尔发现人们还在使用他872年出版的透过镜子 一书中创造的 chortle 一词时，他自己会大笑起来。 无论怎样，卡罗尔把chuckle 一词和 snort 一词结合起来创造的这个词，创造得很不错。 这种形式的词称为混合词或合成词。在透过镜子 一书中矮胖子用 portmanteau（合成词） 一词描述 slithy 一词说， .它象个混成词--有两个意思加在一起放进一个词中.（意思是.柔软的.和.粘性的.）
