喜樂美語
  1. 1

    Relating to the universe as a whole — space, stars, galaxies, a scale far bigger than Earth ('cosmic rays,' 'on a cosmic scale'). It's also used casually for something that feels bigger than life or strangely fated — 'cosmic irony' describes a coincidence so strange it feels like the universe planned it.

    宇宙的（科學用法，如宇宙射線）；「cosmic irony/joke」形容像是命運捉弄般的巧合（口語比喻）
