核心畫面

A hollow empty space inside something solid — the dug pit in the ground, the gap where matter is missing. Everything else carries this 'missing-space' picture into other things: a thing you pass through, a place where something should be, a weak spot, even trouble you've fallen into.

可以想成:一塊實心的東西裡面,少了一塊、空出來的地方——像地上挖出的坑,或物體上缺掉的那一塊。其他用法幾乎都是把這個更多收起可以想成:一塊實心的東西裡面,少了一塊、空出來的地方——像地上挖出的坑,或物體上缺掉的那一塊。其他用法幾乎都是把這個「該有東西卻空掉」的畫面,搬到別的事物上:穿過去的孔、該有人卻空著的位子、計畫裡站不住腳的弱點,甚至是你掉進去爬不出來的麻煩。
