十大中世紀怪獸 (Top 10 Strangest Medieval Monsters)
- Number seven, Salamander. This next one might seem like an odd inclusion, since the amphibious salamander isn't mythical at all. But medieval legends of salamanders were, let's say, a little off from the real-life organism. Alchemists believe salamanders were fireproof, which is strange enough, but many depictions of salamanders deviate wildly from their actual appearance. Why so many medieval artists assigned hair and human faces to salamanders is, unfortunately, largely unclear.
第七位，蠑螈。下一個可能看起來很奇怪，因為兩棲蠑螈根本不是神話中的生物。但中世紀關於蠑螈的傳說，可以說與現實生活中的生物有些出入。鍊金術士認為蠑螈可以防火，這已經夠奇怪的了，但許多關於蠑螈的描繪卻與它們的真實外貌大相徑庭。遺憾的是，很多中世紀藝術家為何要給蠑螈畫上頭髮和人臉，這在很大程度上並不清楚。
- Number four, snails. One of my personal favorites, like the salamander, medieval snails are based on their real-life counterparts, but deviate wildly from what you'd find in nature. Manuscripts portray snails as enormous, weapon-wielding juggernauts menacing knights and helpless villagers. Hilariously, historians aren't entirely sure why so many margins of medieval text feature these supersized mollusks, with theories ranging from political propaganda to the snails representing the slow but inevitable approach of death which awaits us all.
第四，蝸牛。和蠑螈一樣，中世紀的蝸牛也是我個人的最愛之一，它們的原型是現實生活中的蝸牛，但卻與自然界中的蝸牛大相徑庭。手稿將蝸牛描繪成巨大的、揮舞著武器的巨獸，威脅著騎士和無助的村民。令人捧腹的是，歷史學家並不完全清楚為什麼中世紀文字的許多空白處都有這些超大軟體動物的身影，各種說法不一而足，有的認為是政治宣傳，有的則認為蝸牛代表著等待我們所有人的緩慢但不可避免的死亡。

- In fact, the axolotl, a Mexican salamander, can regenerate almost anything,
事實上，美西螈，一種在墨西哥生長的蠑螈，幾乎身上所有部位
- But for a salamander, scar tissue never forms—
但對蠑螈來說，牠們的受傷處不會形成傷疤

- So we designed a salamander robot that very closely mimics the real motion of the real salamander,
所以我們設計了一個火蜥蜴機器人非常精確地模仿真正火蜥蜴的動作
- and it can both walk and swim exactly like the real salamander.
它可以和真正的火蜥蜴一樣走路和游泳
