把材料做成成品
這一群就站在工作台前,材料是看得見、摸得到的東西。
verb · C1
To make goods, parts or equipment, especially by cutting and joining pieces of material together in a factory or workshop.
製造;組裝
Picture a in a workshop. Raw material lies on it, and someone cuts it, shapes it and joins the pieces until a finished thing stands there that did not exist before. The Latin behind the word, fabrica, is exactly that workshop. Everything the word does is a version of that bench: metal parts made to a drawing, a whole chicken broken down into even pieces, and — with the material swapped for words — a story built to be believed.
From Latin fabrica (a workshop, a building) through fabricor, so the word starts at the workbench: making a finished thing out of material.
來自拉丁文 fabrica(作坊、建築),經由 fabricor 進入英文,所以出發點就在工作台上:把材料做成成品。
