单词 storied
例句 storied adjective the quarterback's storied career:legendary, fabled, celebrated, of repute.WORD NOTE storied The first time I saw this word in a major newspaper—used, as I recall, to describe a street which had a particularly colorful history, one on which many notable events had transpired—I thought it was a typo. I have since seen it used more often to refer to a place or thing to which all sorts of stories and legends are attached. So I have learned that it is indeed a word, but I still don't happen to like it. Perhaps that's because it somehow seems like a participle, which would make story a verb along the lines of journal, as in to journal, which is, in my opinion, one of the most repellent current usages. — FPConversational, opinionated, and idiomatic, these Word Notes are an opportunity to see a working writer's perspective on a particular word or usage.
