One way to picture ambassador: the person your country sends to live somewhere else and stand in for it — whatever they say and do abroad is read as coming from home. That is why the word later stretches to anyone whose behaviour makes people think well of the group behind them.

可以想成 ambassador 是「國家派出去、代替它站在那裡的那個人」:他在國外說的話、做的事,都會被當成是背後那更多收起可以想成 ambassador 是「國家派出去、代替它站在那裡的那個人」:他在國外說的話、做的事,都會被當成是背後那個國家的意思。也因為這樣,這個字後來延伸到任何一個「他的表現讓大家對他背後那群人有好感」的人。
