今天出現兩個很接近的詞,scrawl還有scribble,都含有潦草書寫的意涵
根據網友分析,scrawl大多指潦草書寫,但scribble除了書寫,也可能塗鴉之類的
網友A認為: scrawl is usually related to writing (or what is supposed to be writing), while scribble can be any kind of markings.
網友B認為: adults tend to scrawl (it is usually intentional), while children tend to scribble (they are careless or haven't learned how to write or draw yet).
看網友B的解釋,的確很符合文本。羅琳讓成人的海格scrawl,而讓兒童的哈利scribble (參考: https://ell.stackexchange.com/questions/122138/how-do-scrawl-and-scribble-differ)
另外,海格信中為何寫send "us"而非send "me"? 難道除了他還另有別人嗎?
