windmilling

The grinder was powered by a windmill.

这磨盘由风车提供动力。

The propeller will windmill and crank the engine.

螺旋浆将旋转并转动引擎的曲柄。

The sails of the windmill were wheeling round.

风车的翼转个不停。

The sails of the windmill are now at rest.

风车的帆叶现在静止不动了。

For some reason he thinks everyone is out to get him, but he’s really just tilting at windmills.

不知为觉得每个都想害,不过是在庸自扰。

He dangles wildly upside-down for a moment, arms windmilling, then gets his hands pressed firmly against the opposite wall.The rat scurries off, pissed.

摇晃着、手臂挥动着倒挂了一会儿，然后用手使劲的抵住对面的墙，那老鼠匆匆地跑掉了。
