丧钟sāngzhōng西方风俗,教堂在宣告本区教徒死亡或为死者举行宗教仪式时敲钟叫做敲丧钟。因此用丧钟来比喻死亡或灭亡。{knell; funeral bell; death knell. By the Western custom, a church rings its bells slowly and solemnly by way of announcing the death of a follower in the parish or when holding a religious service for the deceased. Hence the term, knell, referring to death or downfall.} |
