c. 1600, from Middle French dessert (mid-16c.) "last course," literally "removal of what has been served," from desservir "clear the table," literally "un-serve," from des- "remove, undo" (see dis-) + Old French servir "to serve" (see serve (v.)).
中文解释
1. desert + s (蛇) => 在沙漠中用蛇做点心。因为是在沙漠的中间，当然 s 也应放在单词 desert 的中间。
