喜樂美語

核心畫面

A mind that has already been set at an angle before anything happens. Nobody has asked yet, nothing has been decided, but the lean is there — towards a person, towards doing a thing, or towards a way of being. Every use of disposed reports that lean, and the word that comes after it tells you which kind it is.

Two branches

心朝著某個人或某件事：好感

斜度朝向一個對象，所以讀起來像態度友善、可以繼續談。

adjective · C1

If you are well, favourably or kindly disposed to someone or something, you like them, or you are ready to approve of them.

對…有好感；樂見

心朝著一個動作，或天生就朝那邊：意願與傾向
