Berserk狂怒
When someone goes berserk, he or she becomes crazy, deranged, overtaken by a violent destructive frenzy. From chainsaw-wielding killers to bloodthirsty zombies, berserk is the perfect term to describe the villains of most scary movies. The term originates from Old Norse, a language that evolved from ancient Viking tongues, with bjorn meaning "bear" and serkr meaning "shirt" or "armor." With this etymology in mind, when someone goes berserk, it's as though they've covered up their rational human behavior with the wild aspect of a bear.
如果一个人疯了,神经错乱了,一心只想着暴力的去破坏,那么你就可以用” berserk”这个词去形容他。用个词来形容嗜血的僵尸,挥舞电锯的杀手以及其他电影中的狂徒都是十分恰当的。这个词源自古挪威语,古挪威语是从古老的维京语演化而来的。” bjorn”的意思是”熊”,“serkr”的意思是”衣服”或者“盔甲”。只要记住这个构词法,就会用这个词了,如果有人已经丧失理智,像只熊一样发疯,我们就可以说这个人” berserk”。
