A note on the data first: this entry is headed departmental and tagged as a noun, but every sense below defines the NOUN department. The actual adjective departmental means 'relating to a department' (a departmental meeting, the departmental budget) and none of those uses appear here. What the senses do describe is department: one marked-off section of a bigger whole — a floor of a hospital, a counter in a store, and from there the marked-off patch of work or of personality that belongs to one person.

先說明資料狀況:這一筆的標題字是 departmental、詞性標成名詞,但底下四個意思定義的其實都是名詞 depa更多收起先說明資料狀況:這一筆的標題字是 departmental、詞性標成名詞,但底下四個意思定義的其實都是名詞 department。真正的形容詞 departmental 意思是「部門的」(a departmental meeting、the departmental budget),這裡完全沒有收到。至於這些意思本身描述的 department,可以想成:一個大整體裡被劃出來的一塊——醫院的一個科、百貨的一個樓層,再從這裡延伸到「劃給某個人的那塊職責或那一面性格」。

From the picture

劃給某個人的那一塊

把組織裡的分工縮小到個人身上:這一塊歸你管、你最在行,於是它就是「你的部門」。
