hawker
【来源】
今天在魏剑峰微博看到这段文字，刚好又是Day4那个词，那就再来一次吧，当复习
外刊好词好句 这段对街头小贩存在意义的描写很有人情味：
Asia’s hawkers do not just provide cheap, delicious food for the masses. They also embody the beating heart of a national cuisine. Perhaps most important, they create a community: the chance for citizens of all classes to rub shoulders over a bowl of noodles swimming in fish broth.
【查词】
collins learner's dictionary
countable noun
You can use hawker to refer to a person who tries to sell things by calling at people's homes or standing in the street, especially when you do not approve of this activity.
[disapproval]
...as soon as she saw that it was a visitor and not a hawker or tramp at her door.

感想：查词这几天以来最开心的了，有偶遇的惊喜。对于我来说，单词就该这样，one bite at a time，然后下次不期而遇再来一口。

今天看到的一段话，The heavy sentence completed the sensational fall from grace for a political princess who became South Korea's first female leader, but then went on to become its first president to be impeached when she was ejected from office a year ago.
刚开始不认识impeach这个单词，但是根据句意猜测应该是弹劾，之后再查字典。
impeach /ɪmˈpiːtʃ/
【解词】
来源于拉丁词impedicare，原意是to fasten the feet together
【释义/字典例句】
vt. formally charged with a serious crime in a special government court控告；弹劾
The governor was impeached for using state funds improperly.
【拓展】n. impeachment
He finally resigned in order to avoid impeachment.
【区别accuse, charge, impeach】
- Accuse is the most general word, and may be used in formal or informal, official or personal, contexts.
（accuse为通用词，常用搭配accuse...of...。例句：Then investigating committee accused the officer of wrongdoing./The man's neighbour accused him of playing his radio too loudly.） - Charge, in this context, means to accuse formally, usually before a court; by extension, it means to accuse informally of a violation of some accepted standard.
（charge指向法院提起的正式指控，也可以表示谴责某人违背某些行为准则，常用搭配charge...with...。
例句：The police charged the driver with reckless driving./ The candidate charged his opponent with evasion of the basic issues.） - Impeach means to arraign a person (usually a public official) before a competent tribunal on a charge of treason or other high crime. In extended use, to impeach is to discredit or to call into question: to impeach a witness; to impeach a person's motives.
（impeach侧重于犯了叛逆罪或其他严重罪行而对其提起的指控，可搭配介词for。例句：He was impeached for abusing his power.）
收获：学习新词impeach，区分了accuse, charge, impeach等词。在写impeach与另外两个词的区别时，还出现了arraign这个新词，也有控告的意思，此外还有indict, incriminate等词都可以表示控告， 之后再补充这几个词的用法。

【收获】
一直以来会经常把dawn和dusk弄混，今天通过仔细查看词源讲解和释义，把dawn和day联系在一起（前两字母相似），而dusk则与dark联系在一起（音相似），因为很熟悉day对应白天，dark对应黑夜，所以感觉能很清晰地区分它们了。
from dawn to dusk 从早到晚
