labyrinth    音标拼音: [l'æbɚ,ɪnθ]
n. 迷宫,难解的事物,迷路

迷宫,难解的事物,迷路

labyrinth
n 1: complex system of paths or tunnels in which it is easy to
get lost [synonym: {maze}, {labyrinth}]
2: a complex system of interconnecting cavities; concerned with
hearing and equilibrium [synonym: {inner ear}, {internal ear},
{labyrinth}]

Labyrinth \Lab"y*rinth\, n. [L. labyrinthus, Gr. laby`rinthos:
cf. F. labyrinthe.]
1. An edifice or place full of intricate passageways which
render it difficult to find the way from the interior to
the entrance; as, the Egyptian and Cretan labyrinths.
[1913 Webster]

Note: The Labyrinth of Classical Mythology was a vast maze
constructed by Daedalus on the island of Crete, in
order to confine the Minotaur; the task was done at the
command of King Minos. One theory suggests that the
myth had some basis in the structure of the palace of
King Minos at Knossos, in Crete, it being a
multistoried royal palace with labyrinthine passages
between rooms.
[PJC]

2. Hence: Any intricate or involved inclosure; especially, an
ornamental maze or inclosure in a park or garden, having
high hedges separating confusingly convoluted passages.
[1913 Webster]

3. Any object or arrangement of an intricate or involved
form, or having a very complicated nature.
[1913 Webster]

The serpent . . . fast sleeping soon he found,
In labyrinth of many a round self-rolled. --Milton.
[1913 Webster]

The labyrinth of the mind. --Tennyson.
[1913 Webster]

4. An inextricable or bewildering difficulty.
[1913 Webster]

I' the maze and winding labyrinths o' the world.
--Denham.
[1913 Webster]

5. (Anat.) The internal ear. See Note under {Ear}.
[1913 Webster]

6. (Metal.) A series of canals through which a stream of
water is directed for suspending, carrying off, and
depositing at different distances, the ground ore of a
metal. --Ure.
[1913 Webster]

7. (Arch.) A pattern or design representing a maze, -- often
inlaid in the tiled floor of a church, etc.
[1913 Webster]

Syn: Maze; confusion; intricacy; windings.

Usage: {Labyrinth}, {Maze}. Labyrinth, originally; the name
of an edifice or excavation, carries the idea of
design, and construction in a permanent form, while
maze is used of anything confused or confusing,
whether fixed or shifting. Maze is less restricted in
its figurative uses than labyrinth. We speak of the
labyrinth of the ear, or of the mind, and of a
labyrinth of difficulties; but of the mazes of the
dance, the mazes of political intrigue, or of the mind
being in a maze.
[1913 Webster]
