| 释义 | > as lemmascut and carve 11. The alliterative phrase cut and carve goes back to the 14th cent. when the two words were equivalent, and cut was beginning to take the place of carve: it is still used, though mostly figurative, and probably carve is now usually taken in the preceding or some of the extant senses.
