核心畫面

You are standing at some line or edge, and 'beyond' points to everything that lies on the far side of it — past that line, out where you cannot easily reach. Picture a fence, a river, a horizon: beyond is whatever is over there, further out than the thing you named.

可以想成你站在一條界線或一個邊緣旁邊,beyond 指的就是那條線「另一邊、更遠處」的一切——越過去、在你伸手不太到更多收起可以想成你站在一條界線或一個邊緣旁邊,beyond 指的就是那條線「另一邊、更遠處」的一切——越過去、在你伸手不太到的地方。想像一道圍籬、一條河、一道地平線:beyond 就是那個界線再過去的範圍。

From the picture

時間上的更後面

把空間的「界線」換成時間軸上的一個時刻:原本是越過一道邊往遠處,現在是越過某個時間點往後延。

later than a time or date · preposition · B2

Later than a particular time or date.

在…之後

數量·程度上的超過

把界線改成一個數字或刻度:越過那個數,就是超出它、比它更多。

more than an amount or level · preposition · B2

More than a particular amount or level.

超過

超出範圍·能力·理解

範圍、能力、理解力都有一圈看不見的「邊」;beyond 把這圈邊當界線,指落在圈外、碰不到也罩不住的地方。

Outside the limits of what something reaches, covers, or controls.

超出…範圍

除了…之外(沒有)

先畫一圈把某樣東西框住,beyond 指那圈以外;配上 nothing/no one,等於說「那一圈之外什麼都沒有」,於是變成『除了…別無其他』。

Except, used in sentences with a negative word like nothing or no one.

除了…之外(沒有)

來世·彼岸(名詞)

把同一個空間畫面整個收成一個名詞:生與死之間有一道最大的界線,the beyond 就是越過那道線、人死後去到的『那一邊』。

the beyond (the afterlife) · noun · B2

來世、彼岸
