核心畫面

Picture someone being walked, over time, from not knowing to knowing — and knowing well enough to act on it. It is not one piece of information handed over; it is a long road with someone guiding, so that at the end the person can think and decide for themselves. That is why `educate` sounds bigger and slower than `tell`.

可以想成有人被帶著走一段路,從不懂走到懂——而且懂到可以自己判斷、自己做決定。這裡的重點不是遞給你一條資訊,而是有人更多收起可以想成有人被帶著走一段路,從不懂走到懂——而且懂到可以自己判斷、自己做決定。這裡的重點不是遞給你一條資訊,而是有人在旁邊引導、走上一段時間,最後你自己有了看事情的能力。這也是為什麼 educate 聽起來比 tell 大、比 tell 慢:它指的是養成,不是通知。
