- 1完形（格式塔）。台灣心理學多說「完形」；中國大陸較常說「格式塔」。
A whole that is not just its pieces added up — the whole has a quality you cannot find in any part on its own. A melody is a classic picture: the notes are there, but the tune is not in any one note. It came into English from psychology (Gestalt psychology) and still sounds a little technical or essay-like; some designers and therapists use it too. Though actually, in loose talk people now say ‘the gestalt’ to mean ‘the overall feel’ or ‘the big picture,’ which is nearby but thinner than the original claim. The stricter idea is not merely ‘look at everything together’ — it is that the whole is a different kind of thing from the parts.
組成Borrowed from German Gestalt, ‘shape, figure, form’.
