喜樂美語

From the word’s history

From Middle English bache 'bank, sandbank', from Old English beċe 'brook, stream'.

源自古英文 beċe「小溪」，到中古英文時指「河岸、沙洲」。

Wiktionary

You can picture beach as that strip of sand or right where the water meets the land — the edge where sea and shore touch. The noun is the place itself; the verb is the action of ending up on that strip, coming out of the water onto it.

可以想成 beach 就是水和陸地相接的那條沙石帶——海浪打上來、沙子鋪開來的那道邊。當名詞時指的是這個「地方」本身；當動詞時指的是「上到這條邊上」的動作，從水裡爬上岸來。
