savour (複數 savours)

味道
- 1898, J. Meade Falkner, Moonfleet, Ch.5:
  He held out to me a bowl of steaming broth, that filled the room with a savour sweeter, ten thousand times, to me than every rose and lily of the world; yet would not let me drink it at a gulp, but made me sip it with a spoon like any baby.
- 1914, Louis Joseph Vance, 章號 I, 出自 Nobody, New York, N.Y.: George H[enry] Doran Company, 出版於 1915, →OCLC:
  
  Little disappointed, then, she turned attention to "Chat of the Social World," gossip which exercised potent fascination upon the girl's intelligence. She devoured with more avidity than she had her food those pretentiously phrased chronicles of the snobocracy […] distilling therefrom an acid envy that robbed her napoleon of all its savour.
