改編成戲劇
核心畫面
You can think of dramatize as putting something on a stage. Before, it was only words on a page, or an event that happened and was forgotten. Now someone arranges it into scenes so other people sit down and watch. Turning a novel into a TV series is that, with a real stage. Telling your family that a ten-minute delay ruined the day is that too, with the kitchen as the stage. And when one flooded classroom finally shows everyone that the roof is failing, the problem has been moved to the centre of the stage where it cannot be missed.

可以想成 dramatize 就是把一件事「擺上舞台」。原本它只是紙上的文字，或是發生過就算了的事。現在有人把它排成場面，讓別人坐下來看。把小說拍成影集，是真的有舞台。把晚十分鐘的車講成天塌下來，也是同一件事，只是舞台變成客廳。而當一間淹水的教室讓全校終於看見屋頂該修了，那是把問題推到了舞台正中央。差別只在：這齣戲是演給觀眾看、演給朋友看，還是把本來沒人注意的事演到被看見。From the word’s history
The packet's source entry derives the word from Ancient Greek drâma, a performed play, plus the English ending -ize, which means to turn something into that. So the word literally says: make it into a play.
packet 裡的來源條目寫著：這個字來自古希臘文 δρᾶμα（演出來的戲）加上英文字尾 -ize（把某樣東西變成…）。所以字面就是「把它變成一齣戲」。
Wiktionary entry for dramatize supplied in this packet (source_ref kaikki:3f6f69a190036ae4:1363123312:12573): From Ancient Greek δρᾶμα (drâma) + English -ize.
Two branches
把現實當成戲擺出來
這一族沒有真的舞台，但同樣是「把一件事擺出來給人看」。兩個意思從這裡分成兩邊：一邊是演過頭，一邊是終於被看見。
