regal: regal: [14] Regal and royal are doublets: that is to say, they come from the same ultimate source, but have perged over the centuries. This source was rēgālis, a derivative of Latin rēx ‘king’. This came from Indo-European *rēg-, which also produced the Sanskrit ancestor of English rajah, and was a lengthened version of *reg-, source of English rector, regiment, region, regular, reign, right, rule, etc. Regal was probably borrowed direct from Latin, whereas royal was routed via Old French. Also from rēx come regalia [16] and regicide [16].
=> rajah, rector, regiment, region, regular, reign, right, royal, rule

该词也可拼做tourbillon，与 whirlwind 是同义词，只是没有 whirlwind 用得普遍。来自法语tourbillon，表示旋风，来自古法语torbeillon，最终来自拉丁词根turb,turbo，表示旋转、混乱、骚动等，同根词：

disturb：[dis'tə:b] v.打扰、妨碍，dis前缀表示away,apart,所以打扰某人就意味着让他的思想或者注意力“away”了。

turbine：['tə:bain; -bin] n.涡轮、涡轮机，内燃机的一种，通常用作飞机的发动机。

turbojet：['tə:bəudʒet] n.涡轮喷气飞机，单独jet做名词讲是喷气式飞机。

turbulent：['tə:bjulənt] adj. 骚乱的、混乱的、狂暴的、吵闹的。

trouble：['trʌbl] n.麻烦、烦恼、故障，当一个人有“麻烦”时，心里会很烦，就像是有很多令人不快的因素在困扰、打扰一样，而这正是trouble这个单词在拉丁语中的本来意思。最初进入英语时，这个单词的拼写是turble，然后变成了truble，最后才变成了现在的trouble。
