hiding

noun

核心畫面

One way to hold this word: a person steps out of everyone's sight and stays there. It is not the moment of slipping behind the door; it is the whole stretch of time nobody can find them, and the reason that keeps them there.

可以想成:一個人整個從別人的視線裡退出去,然後就待在那裡。這個字抓的不是「躲進去」那一秒,而是後面那一整段誰也找不到更多收起可以想成:一個人整個從別人的視線裡退出去,然後就待在那裡。這個字抓的不是「躲進去」那一秒,而是後面那一整段誰也找不到他的時間,以及讓他待在那裡的理由。英文把這段時間當成一個空間:走得進去,也走得出來。

From the word’s history

Wiktionary files this hiding under hide (Etymology 1), the verb meaning to keep something out of sight; the noun is that verb plus -ing, naming the state rather than a place.

Wiktionary 把這個 hiding 列在 hide 的第一條字源底下,也就是「把人或東西藏起來」那個動詞;名詞形式就是動詞加 -ing,指的是那個狀態本身,不是一個地點。

A second word, same spelling

hiding

noun

核心畫面

A different word that happens to be spelled the same. One way to hold it: something getting a thorough going-over, the way a skin is worked on. From there it becomes a beating given as punishment, then a defeat so heavy the losing side never competed, and finally a fixed phrase about taking all that and getting nothing back.

可以想成:一張皮被狠狠地整治一遍。Wiktionary 把這個 hiding 放在 hide(獸皮)那一條線上,最字更多收起可以想成:一張皮被狠狠地整治一遍。Wiktionary 把這個 hiding 放在 hide(獸皮)那一條線上,最字面的動作是剝皮取皮。從那裡長出「挨一頓打」的說法,再從挨打長出「比賽被打得毫無還手之力」,最後長出 a hiding to nothing 這種「挨了打還什麼都沒拿到」的固定句。這條線跟「躲起來」沒有關係,只是拼法一樣。

From the word’s history

Wiktionary gives this hiding a separate etymology (Etymology 2, "See hide (Etymology 2)"), where the literal sense listed is the skinning of an animal to yield a hide, and the beating sense is marked as figurative.

Wiktionary 把這個 hiding 另外列成第二條字源(「See hide (Etymology 2)」):字面的意思是「剝下獸皮」,而「挨打」被標成比喻用法。所以它跟「躲起來」的 hiding 是兩個不同來源的字。

Wiktionary, 'hiding' (noun), Etymology 2 — literal sense "Skinning (of an animal) to yield a hide", figurative sense "A beating or spanking"; packet source_ref kaikki:3f6f69a190036ae4:49096388

Two branches

挨一頓打

最靠近字源的一條:把「整治一張皮」的畫面用在人身上,就成了作為處罰的一頓打。

noun · C1

An occasion when someone is hit hard as a punishment, especially a child hit by a parent. It is countable, so people say 'a hiding', and very often 'a good hiding'.

一頓打;揍一頓

從挨打長出來的比喻

同一個畫面離開身體,搬到球場和人生的處境上,重點從「痛」變成「差距大、毫無勝算」。

noun · C1

A very heavy defeat in a game or match. If a team gets a hiding, the other side beats them by a lot, not by a little.

慘敗;被痛宰
