Felt
作动词时描述身体或情绪感受 “felt cold”，或观点 “felt it was unfair”。作名词 “felt” 指毛毡，发音相同，需靠上下文区分。
- “He felt nervous before the presentation began.” (演讲开始前他感到紧张。)
- “We felt the wall and found a hidden door.” (我们摸了摸墙壁，发现一扇暗门。)
- “The blanket was made of soft red felt for the holiday craft.” (这条毯子是用柔软的红色毛毡做的节日手工材料。)
动词 “feel” 来自古英语 fēlan（触摸、感知）；名词 “felt”（毛毡）来自古英语 felt，词源不同但现代拼写相同。
不规则动词 feel / felt / felt；名词义为独立词汇，无同一套词缀变化。
口语 “I felt like…” 引出主观印象；共情表达 “I know how you felt” 常用于安慰。
- 固定搭配: “felt sorry for” (为……感到难过), “felt like home” (像家一样自在)
身体“感觉”与毛毡的“触感”都关乎 touch，一词两义用触觉联想捆绑。
“She felt the cold air, then felt her pocket for gloves lined with felt.” (她感觉到冷空气，又在口袋里摸用毛毡衬里的手套。)
