• #動詞形式
  The whale seemed to love being around people and quickly captivated local residents, who came up with the name Hvaldimir — a combination of the Norwegian word for whale, “hval,” and the first name of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
  這隻鯨魚似乎很喜歡與人相處，很快就俘獲了當地居民的心，居民們把牠取名為Hvaldimir——結合了挪威語中“鯨魚”（hval）和俄羅斯總統普丁的名字。
• #情態助動詞
  But Hvaldimir could also have been a therapy whale, according to other theories, which could explain the interest in people and responses to hand signals.
  但根據其他理論，Hvaldimir 也可能是一個用來治療的鯨魚，這或許可以解釋牠為何對人類有興趣以及對手勢的反應。
