1. 1n/ˌdiː ˈiː/DE(德拉瓦州縮寫或前綴)

    A short written form used for the US state of Delaware, or sometimes as a prefix meaning 'remove' or 'reverse' in compound words.

    「DE」最常見的用法是美國德拉瓦州(Delaware)的官方縮寫,常出現在地址、郵件或地圖上。另外,de- 作為英文前綴時表示「去除、反轉」,例如 decode(解碼)、defrost(解凍)。兩種用法都是看語境來判斷。

core核心畫面

Picture 'DE' as a tiny two-letter label that stands in for something longer — most often the US state name Delaware on a form or address, and sometimes the front-piece 'de-' glued onto a word to mean 'take away' or 'undo'.

可以想成「DE」是一個只有兩個字母的小標籤,用來代替比較長的東西:最常見的是在表格或地址上代替美國的德拉瓦州(Delaware),有時也是黏在字頭的「de-」,帶有「去掉、相反、倒回去」的味道。整個畫面比較像「用兩個字母縮短地指向一個地方或一個動作方向」。
