专业提示

区分 puppy 与 dog

Puppy 指幼犬(通常未满一岁),而 dog 泛指所有狗。在中文中,'小狗' 通常指幼犬,但 '狗' 可泛指任何年龄的狗。

黄金法则

幼犬的年龄划分

在兽医学中,puppy 的幼年期通常为出生至 12-18 个月。超过 18 个月的狗通常被称为 adult dog。

词源

源自中古英语 'puppi',可能来自古法语 'poupe'(玩偶)或荷兰语 'pop'(婴儿)。原指小孩或玩偶,后特指幼犬。

用法说明

在英语中,'puppy' 通常用于非正式场合,指任何品种的幼犬。在中文中,'小狗' 是最常见的对应词,但也可根据语境使用 '幼犬'(强调品种)或 '狗崽'(贬义或方言色彩)。
