核心畫面

Stand still and turn until you are looking straight back the way you came. That is half a circle, 180 degrees, and the number alone is enough to name it. Everything else this word does keeps that half-turn and changes only what is turning: a board, a plan, or two things already sitting at opposite ends.

可以想成一個人站著,轉到正對著剛才來的方向。那就是半圈,180 度。英文只留下這個角度,就足以指出整個動作。其他用法更多收起可以想成一個人站著,轉到正對著剛才來的方向。那就是半圈,180 度。英文只留下這個角度,就足以指出整個動作。其他用法都沿用這個半圈的畫面,只是換掉轉的東西:有時候是滑板,有時候是想法,有時候只是兩個剛好在兩端的東西。

From the word’s history

Wiktionary gives the origin plainly: the noun is shortened from '180-degree turn'.

Wiktionary 直接寫著它來自 180-degree turn(一百八十度轉身),說話時只留下角度這個數字。
