Wordle效应

 

There were several other American-English words that appeared on Wordle and later spiked¹ in searches on the Cambridge Dictionary website – described by the dictionary's news release as the "Wordle effect."

Wordle的答案中还出现过几个美式英语单词，这几个单词在剑桥词典网站上的搜索量激增，《剑桥词典》称之为“Wordle效应”。

 

The American spelling of "humor" saw increased traffic, with almost 30,000 searches on the day it was the Wordle answer, while more unusual words like "caulk²" and "bayou" were also searched thousands of times.

美式拼写的“humor”搜索次数增加，在5月5日被搜索近3万次，而“caulk”和“bayou”等更罕见的单词也被搜索了数千次。

 

Cambridge Dictionary's choice for word of the year illustrates³ the popularity of a simple game that could be shared online when global pandemic restrictions⁴ limited social interactions for millions.

Homer当选《剑桥词典》年度词汇表明，当新冠疫情限制了数百万人的社交互动时，一个可以线上分享的小游戏有多受欢迎。
