兩邊對得起來
登入就可以看這一支怎麼連回核心畫面。
parts match each other · verb
If two things correspond, the parts of one, or the information in one, match the parts or the information in the other, so each piece on one side goes with a piece on the other side.
相符；一一對應
From the word’s history
From Middle French correspondre, from Latin com- 'with' + respondeo 'to match, answer to'; co- + respond.
來自中古法文，源自拉丁文 com-「一起」加 respondeo「回應」。
Two separate things laid side by side, and each part on this side has its partner on that side. Nothing is left over, nothing is — the two line up.
把兩樣東西並排放著，然後一項一項對過去：這邊的第一格配那邊的第一格，這邊的第二格配那邊的第二格，兩邊都沒有多出來、也沒有落單的。這個「兩者之間彼此相配」的畫面，正好也解釋了為什麼寫信會用這個字——兩個人一來一往，你一封我一封，也是一種兩邊互相配對的關係。
