Hind Meaning in English
word
释义
A 'hind' is the female of a red deer or similar large deer. 'Hind' can also mean something that is at the back or rear position of something.
用法与细微差别
'Hind' as a noun for a female deer is quite formal and mostly used in scientific, hunting, or literature contexts. As an adjective, it is part of phrases like 'hind legs' (meaning back legs), and is not used alone to mean 'behind'. Do not confuse with 'hind' meaning 'servant' in archaic English.
