核心畫面

Picture a fire burning — tall, bright, fast-moving flames giving off strong light and heat. 'Blaze' is that fierce bright burning. From it grow a big dangerous fire, an intense show of light or colour, a sudden flare of feeling or fame, and guns in a stream of flashes. (A separate, unrelated word gives the white mark on a horse's face and 'to blaze a trail' — marking a path.)

可以想成一團烈火熊熊燒著——火舌又高又亮、竄得很快,散出強光和高熱。blaze 的核心比較像這「猛烈而明亮的燃燒」。更多收起可以想成一團烈火熊熊燒著——火舌又高又亮、竄得很快,散出強光和高熱。blaze 的核心比較像這「猛烈而明亮的燃燒」。由它長出:危險的大火、強到像著火的光與色、情緒或名聲突然像火一樣竄起、還有槍砲連發時一串串的火光。(另有一個無關的同形字,給了馬臉上的白斑和 blaze a trail「開路」。)
