记忆方法
将“geyser”拆分为“gey”和“ser”。想象一个“gey”就像一个沸腾的水龙头，而“ser”代表它连续不断地“流动”或“喷出”，这样就形成了一个会喷水的景观，即“间歇泉”。通过这样的场景联想，可以更容易地记住“geyser”这个单词。

geyser: see gust
- geyser (n.)
- 1780, extended from Icelandic Geysir, name of a specific hot spring in the valley of Haukadal, literally "the gusher," from Old Norse geysa "to gush," from Proto-Germanic *gausjan, suffixed form of PIE *gheus-, extended form of the root *gheu- "to pour" (see found (v.2)). Taken by foreign writers as the generic name for spouting hot springs, for which the native Icelandic words are hverr "a cauldron," laug "a hot bath."
