Rain pattered gently outside, dripping on to the roof from the pines.
外面,松树上的雨水滴落在屋顶上,嗒嗒作响。
《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》
Cabs and carriages, their lamps gleaming like yellow eyes, pattered by.
公共马车和私人马车嗒嗒地驶过, 车灯像一双双黄色的眼睛闪闪发亮.
英汉文学 - 嘉莉妹妹
The rain pattered against the casements; the bells tolled for church with a melancholy sound.
雨点噼噼啪啪地打在窗子上; 教堂里传来沉重的钟声,召唤人们去做礼拜.
