释义与例句

n.
  1. 1.

    A type of bulbous stone formation found in Romania, sometimes called a "living stone" or "living rock" because they are popularly believed to slowly grow, and to reproduce when pieces break off and become new concretions; whether they actually grow in size over time, and/or are concretions, is disputed.

词源

Borrowed from Romanian trovant, coined by Romanian geologist Gheorghe Munteanu-Murgoci in 1907.
