GROH-bak

groh-BAK

释义

When something, usually hair, plants, or body parts, returns and becomes longer or larger after being cut, removed, or lost.

用法与细微差别

Mainly used for hair, plants, or body parts ('My hair will grow back'). Informal/neutral register. Not for things that never return. Common mistake: don't confuse with simply 'grow' (which doesn't imply something was lost first).
