Zeugma'originates from Greek,'zeugnynai'.It refers to the collocation of one word with two words or more,which seems to be unreasonable.But it is the unreasonableness that reaches an unexpected effect.The expressing form and rhetorical characteristic of English Zeugma is different from any others.Its use makes the sentence terse,tightly knit,vivid,humourous,novel and original,and has special expressivity.
