核心畫面

A useful way to hold this word is to picture someone leaning in for a closer look — head tilted, wanting to know more. That leaning-in is the first meaning. The second meaning stands on the other side of the same scene: it describes the thing that makes people lean in, the odd detail that pulls a second look.

可以想成一個人把頭湊近、想再看清楚一點的樣子——那個「想知道更多」的動作,就是 curiously 的第一個意思。第更多收起可以想成一個人把頭湊近、想再看清楚一點的樣子——那個「想知道更多」的動作,就是 curiously 的第一個意思。第二個意思站在同一個畫面的另一邊:不是誰在湊近看,而是那件事本身怪得讓人想多看一眼。所以這個字的兩個意思其實是同一場景的兩端,一端是看的人,一端是被看的東西。
