n. 光秃,率直,枯燥

光秃,率直,枯燥

baldness
n 1: the condition of having no hair on the top of the head
[synonym: {baldness}, {phalacrosis}]

Baldness \Bald"ness\, n.
The state or condition of being bald; as, baldness of the
head; baldness of style.
[1913 Webster]

This gives to their syntax a peculiar character of
simplicity and baldness. --W. D.
Whitney.
[1913 Webster]

Baldness
from natural causes was uncommon (2 Kings 2:23; Isa. 3:24). It
was included apparently under "scab" and "scurf," which
disqualified for the priesthood (Lev. 21:20). The Egyptians were
rarely subject to it. This probably arose from their custom of
constantly shaving the head, only allowing the hair to grow as a
sign of mourning. With the Jews artificial baldness was a sign
of mourning (Isa. 22:12; Jer. 7:29; 16:6); it also marked the
conclusion of a Nazarite's vow (Acts 18:18; 21:24; Num. 6:9). It
is often alluded to (Micah 1:16; Amos 8:10; Jer. 47:5). The Jews
were forbidden to follow the customs of surrounding nations in
making themselves bald (Deut. 14:1).
