释义	brick·bat AHD[brĭkʹbăt'] D.J.[ˈbrɪkˌbæt]K.K.[ˈbrɪkˌbæt]n.（名词） A piece, especially of brick, used as a weapon or missile.碎砖：用作武器或投射物的碎块，尤指砖块 An unfavorable remark; criticism.不利的评论；批评 Etymology语源 brick brick bat ¹[piece of brick] bat¹[砖块] 注释 The earliest sense ofbrickbat, recorded in a work first published in 1563, was "a piece of brick.” Such pieces of brick have not infrequently been thrown at others in the hope of injuring them;hence, the figurativebrickbats (first recorded in 1929) that critics hurl at performances they dislike. The appearance ofbat as the second part of this compound is explained by the fact that the word bat, "war club, cudgel,” developed in Middle English the sense "chunk, clod, wad,” and in the 16th century came to be used specifically for a piece of brick that was unbroken on one end.brickbat 最早的意义记录在1563年首次出版的一部著作中，意为“一块砖。” 这样的砖块常用来投掷他人，意在将人打伤；因此，含比喻意义的brickbats （1929年第一次被记录下来）指批评家抨击他们厌恶的表演。 bat 一词作为这一复合词的第二部分出现可用下列事实来解释，即意为“警棍，短棒”的 bat 一词在中世纪英语中发展为“厚块、泥块、软团”的意思， 16世纪被用来特指一端没有破损的砖块
