释义与例句

n.
  1. 1.

    A framework in the form of a passageway of columns that supports a trelliswork roof; used to support and train climbing plants.

    By the little garden pergola open to the winds some fluttered peacocks were blotted nervelessly amid the dripping trees, their heads sunk back beneath their wings: while in the pergola itself, like a fallen storm-cloud, lolled a negress, her levelled, polecat eyes semi-veiled by the nebulous alchemy of the rainbow.

    While both pergolas and arbors are most dramatic cloaked in climbing, flowing plants, only a pergola will stand naked as a piece of architecture.

  2. 2.

    Such a framework employed to provide shade, especially over a patio.
