喜樂美語

核心畫面

You can hold cheek as the soft, rounded side of a face — the pad between eye and jaw that you kiss, that goes red, that presses against another face when two people stand close. Most of the word's uses are still this piece of the body, either touched, turned, or placed beside something else.
