单词 emit
释义
emit
(once / 560 pages)
v

To emit means to give off or let out, and it usually has a lot to do with gases, smells and noises. All of which could be potentially embarrassing, depending on where they're coming from.
Lots of things can be emitted: body heat from your hands, high pitched sound waves from a dog whistle, nasty odors from your mouth after a garlic-heavy lunch. Coming from the Latin emitter, it simply means to “send forth.” Since global warming is such a hot topic, you've probably heard people talking about how much CO2 cars emit or how many greenhouse gases factories emit into the air.
WORD FAMILY
emit: emission, emits, emitted, emitter, emitting+/emission: emissions/emitter: emitters
