1. jaw的翻译
1. 颚：鳄鱼线这个指标是Bill William在1998年所提出来的,这个指标旨在判定趋势,利用蓝线-颚(jaw)、红线-齿(teeth)、绿线-唇(lip)及价格的相对位置,分属不同的意义;并且在配合碎形fractal后可进一步得到进出讯号.
2. 下颌：4.除了圆口类之外,都具备了上,下颌(jaw)颌的作用在于支持口部,加强动物主动 摄食和消化的能力.以下颌上举使口闭合的方式,为脊椎动物所特有,不见于其他类群.
3. 颌：前额( forehead )与下颌(jaw )的宽度大约相同. 前额和下巴( chin )的距离等於两侧脸颊之间的距离,也就是脸长度大约相等於脸宽度. 卷曲发(curly)发型 ,因为这些都会更强调圆型与丰厚饱满. 前额( forehead )明显很宽. 下颌(jaw )很宽又有角的.
4. 下巴：但有一点很怪,它嘴的力量全在下巴(jaw)的肌肉,所以一定要张开大嘴咬下去,才有劲,若是根本不让它嘴张开,它就一点办法都没有了. 鳄鱼虽然能吃人,但人若在它没张嘴前把它的尖嘴用胳臂抱住,鳄鱼就流不出来眼泪了.
