<< review queue entry 41795 - submitted by 'xiaoxiong' >> 梦中的恶魔,相传是睡觉时压迫人的恶魔 Editor: This is actually one of the meanings of "nightmare": Wp ~ "Nightmare" evokes the modern word for a female horse but the terms are wholly unrelated. The word derives from the Old English "mare", a mythological demon who torments human beings with frightening dreams. |
