释义 | Definition of orey-eyed in English:orey-eyedadjective ˈɔːriˌʌɪd US
OriginLate 19th century; earliest use found in Jack London (1876–1916), writer, war correspondent, and agronomist. Apparently from first element of uncertain identity + eyed (although compare early forms, both in J. London, in -oide, -ide). The first element may perhaps represent a pronunciation of awry, or perhaps of hoary, or perhaps compare oorie. Definition of orey-eyed in US English:orey-eyedadjectiveˈɔːriˌʌɪd US
