purlicue
“虎口”距(食指与拇指间的空隙)
Although a rare word, purlicue is a term for the space between the forefinger and thumb, originally used in the North of England. It's thought to derive from the Scots term pirlie, meaning ‘curly' or ‘twisted', and is also used as a synonym for curlicue: a term in calligraphy to describe curls in a person's writing.
尽管是个冷僻词，purlicue这一术语用来表示食指与拇指间的空间，最早用于英格兰北部，这个词来源于苏格兰术语pirlie，意为"卷曲的"或"弯曲的";现在用作"花体"的近义词，书法术语，用以形容书写中笔迹的卷曲。
hallux
大脚趾
It stems from Latin and began to be commonly used in the mid-19th century. On the opposite side (of the foot), the little toe is called the minimus.
起源于拉丁语，19世纪中叶开始普遍运用。与之相对应的是，小脚趾被称为minimus。
fraenum
系带
A fraenum is a small ligament that restricts movement between body parts. The most obvious example is the fraenum which attaches the tongue to the bottom of the mouth, or the lip to the gum. It comes from the Latin fraenum which meant ‘bridle' – that same idea of restrained movement. It is also spelled frenum, and the more common term is frenulum.
系带是一小小的韧带，限制身体部位的运动。最常见的例子就是连接舌头和口底、唇和牙龈的舌系带。系带一词来源于拉丁语fraenum，意为"缰绳"，和限制行动同义，亦拼作"frenum"，更为常用的术语是frenulum。
