核心畫面

Picture the very first time the curtain goes up on someone or something: a player's first match, a singer's first record, a car shown to the public for the first time. There is only ever one of these. Debut names that first appearance, and English also uses it as a verb — both for the thing appearing and for the people putting it out.

可以想成:布幕第一次為某個人或某樣東西拉開的那一刻——球員的第一場比賽、歌手的第一張唱片、一輛車第一次公開亮相。這種更多收起可以想成:布幕第一次為某個人或某樣東西拉開的那一刻——球員的第一場比賽、歌手的第一張唱片、一輛車第一次公開亮相。這種時刻只會有一次。debut 指的就是那次首度登場;英文也把它當動詞用,既可以說「它登場了」,也可以說「他們把它推出來了」。
