记忆方法
将“monocle”分解为“mono”和“cle”，其中“mono”意味着“单一”或“一个”，“cle”可能是“clear”的简称，意味着清晰或清晰可见。想象一副眼镜，它是为单眼设计的，只有一个镜片，非常清晰，这就是“monocle”的形象记忆法。

英语词源
- monocle (n.)
- "single eyeglass," 1886, from French monocle, noun use of adjective monocle "one-eyed, blind in one eye" (13c.), from Late Latin monoculus "one-eyed," from Greek monos "single, alone" (see mono-) + Latin oculus "eye" (see eye (n.)).
That this, a hybrid, a Gallicism, and a word with no obvious meaning to the Englishman who hears it for the first time, should have ousted the entirely satisfactory eyeglass is a melancholy illustration of the popular taste in language. [Fowler]
