喜樂美語

From the word’s history

From Middle English, via Middle French centre and Latin centrum, from Ancient Greek kéntron, from kenteîn 'to prick'.

經法文、拉丁文 centrum，源自希臘文 kentron，和「刺、戳」有關。

Wiktionary

You can hold one picture for the whole word: the exact middle point of something — the dot in the middle of a circle. Everything radiates from that dot: a building or town that acts as the middle of activity, the middle of people's attention, the middle ground in , the player in the middle of the field, and the verb 'to put something at the middle / make it the focus'.

整個字可以只抓一個畫面：某樣東西「正中間」的那一點——像圓心那個小圓點。所有用法都從這一點往外散開：當作活動中樞的場館或市鎮、眾人注意力的中央、政治光譜的中間地帶、球場中路的球員，以及動詞「把某事擺在中間、當成焦點」。
