为什么这俩会出错,源头查不清。因为各大英汉词典没有在这一条下翻车的。

A panoply is a collection or an assortment of things. You might be eager to show off your panoply of bobble-head dolls when friends come to your house.- x# [; U6 T* x) U2 f$ N
An array or display of things is a panoply, so you can show off your panoply of spooky clown paintings, but you can also display a panoply of dance moves or talk about the panoply of flags at the parade — as long as it's a complete or impressive display, it's a true panoply. In ancient Greece, the word was used exclusively to talk about military costumes which were always suits of armor.

有人要说,如果我收集了很多芭比娃娃当艺术品,朋友来我家,华丽地展示给人家看,不是panoply吗?当然是。问题是,「艺术收藏」这个意思本来就是「一批人或物」底下的小意思,不能误以为panoply 只指艺术收藏,那是把意思说窄了。8 \& L/ |" B& u/ K, O
