- 1實作的；親手做的
If something is hands-on, you do the work yourself. You do not only talk, plan, or give orders. A hands-on class means students make things and try them, not just listen. A hands-on boss rolls up their sleeves and joins in. People also want hands-on experience: they have actually done the job, not only read about it. Like hands-off, it usually sits in front of a noun — hands-on training, a hands-on job. It sounds practical and a bit proud; companies like to put it in . It is not only about using your fingers. A hands-on computer course still uses the word. The name may come from the sailors' call all hands on deck, when every person had to come and work — here hands means the people doing the job.
如果某件事是 hands-on，就是自己親手去做，不只是說、計畫或下命令。hands-on 的課，學生是動手做、實際試，而不是只聽講；「a hands-on boss」指的是會捲起袖子跟大家一起做的老闆。它不一定要用手指，電腦課也可以用，重點是實際操作。
這個字通常放在名詞前面，寫成「hands-on ＿＿」，像「hands-on training」「a hands-on job」。也常說「hands-on experience」，指真的做過那份工作，而不是只看過書。它語氣實際，帶點自豪，所以公司也很喜歡用在廣告裡。
