圍在一件事外面的吵鬧
這一支就是核心畫面：那圈聲音被抽出來單獨命名。
noun · C1
All the noisy excitement, talk and attention around something — the adverts, the news, the crowds — often more fuss than the thing itself turns out to deserve.
喧騰；大肆張揚
核心畫面
Stand at the edge of a busy . Someone is shouting to pull you in, music is playing, lights are turning, and a crowd is pushing toward one stall. None of that noise is the prize. It is the ring of excitement that has grown up around the prize, and it is usually louder than whatever is at the middle of it. That ring of noise is what hoopla names.

可以想成站在熱鬧園遊會的邊上：有人在大聲吆喝，音樂放著，燈在轉，人群往同一個攤子擠。這些聲音沒有一樣是獎品本身。它們是圍在獎品外面的那一圈熱鬧，而且往往比中間那個東西還大聲。hoopla 講的就是這一圈聲音。From the word’s history
The source entry in this packet says hoopla first appears around 1877, probably from French houp-la, a cry called out to animals, likely imitating a shout. The word begins life as a noise, which fits a word that names noise rather than content.
本包的來源條目說 hoopla 大約 1877 年前後出現，可能來自法文的 houp-là，那是一聲吆喝，來源多半是模擬叫喊的聲音。這個字本身就是從一聲喊叫來的，剛好對上它今天指「外圍的吵鬧」而不是事情內容。

園遊會攤位上的套圈圈
同一個園遊會場景裡的另一樣東西：不是外圍的聲音，而是攤子上那個真的在丟圈圈的遊戲。本包證據沒有說明兩個意思誰先誰後，這裡只是把它們放在同一個畫面下方便記，不是在說一個從另一個變來。
