Amazon 的美式发音/ˈæm.ə.zɑːn/，

这个词我们并不陌生，

因为人类历史上最有富的人

Jeff Bezos 的购物网站就叫Amazon。

所以在Apple的CEO， Tim Cook宣布捐助修复亚马逊雨林后，

全球网友都在喊话Bezos，谁让你公司的名字也叫亚马逊来着。

全球女网友在搜索亚马逊火灾新闻时最后可能变成了上你家网站上购物的行为。

当然Amazon这个词汇在亚马逊购物网出现之前最主要的意思还是South American jungles的意思：

Amazon rainforest.

还有世界上第二长河流Amazon river.

对了靠前长河流是哪条？

第四个意思大家可能不知道，

Amazon这个词汇来源于希腊神话，指女战士

A female warrior from greek mythology, who would often travel in pairs of 2 and their main color was red.

Their most famous queen was Hippolyta, who was captured by Hercules as one of his 7 tasks. Hippolyta called her Amazon warriors, and they fought and beat Hercules and his men.

They wouldcut off their left breast, so that they could shoot their bow and arrows more easily. They were also very tall, strong, and aggressive.

所以现在这个词也可以形容a tall, strong, or forceful woman.
