人這邊:走習慣了
站在走路的人身上看那條小路:走多了,就不再覺得特別。
adjective · B2
If you are accustomed to something, you have met it often enough that it now feels normal to you and you accept it without effort.
習慣了、適應了
Think of a path worn across a patch of grass. Nobody planned it; people simply walked the same way often enough that it became the way. Accustomed is that worn path in word form — either the person who no longer notices the walk, or the route that is simply the usual one.
The source entry analyses the word as accustom + -ed, and accustom itself carries custom inside it. That fits the picture: something has been made into a custom, so it now simply is what happens.
packet 裡的來源把這個字拆成 accustom + -ed,而 accustom 裡面就有 custom(慣例)。這正好對上那條被走出來的小路:一件事做成了慣例,之後就理所當然地這樣發生。
