1. 1互見;參照(指引讀者去書中另一處)

    When a book or a writer cross-refers, they tell the reader to look at another place — another page, section, or entry — for more. You meet this in school books, dictionaries, and manuals more than in stories. The verb is what the text does: it points you across. Its close partner is the noun cross-reference (the note itself). Though actually, many people now use “cross-reference” as the verb too, and that is very common. “Cross-refer” stays a little more and thin.

    「cross-refer」是互見、參照的意思:書或作者請讀者去另一頁、另一節或另一條目看更多。這是一個動詞,說的是文字本身的動作,把你指向另一處。教科書、字典和手冊裡比較常見,故事書裡很少。

    它的名詞是「cross-reference」,指那一條互見的註記本身。現在很多人也把「cross-reference」當動詞用,而且很常見;cross-refer 則偏書面,比較少見。
