喜樂美語

核心畫面

You can picture depth as the distance from the surface of something down to its bottom — looking from the top of the water, the lake floor far below. It is 'how far down it goes'. Everything else stretches this one measuring line into feelings, knowledge, and the lowest or innermost points.

可以想成從一個東西的表面往下量到底，距離有多遠——站在水面上往下看，湖底在很深的地方。核心畫面比較像「往下走有多遠」…更多收起可以想成從一個東西的表面往下量到底，距離有多遠——站在水面上往下看，湖底在很深的地方。核心畫面比較像「往下走有多遠」這條尺。其他用法都是把這條往下的尺，延伸到感情、知識、以及「最深處／最低點」上。
