核心畫面

You can picture huge as something so far past 'big' that it almost you — a size, amount, or degree at the very top end of the scale. Once you have that 'enormous, off-the-chart' feeling, it stops needing to be about physical size: a thing can be huge in how famous or popular it is, meaning its reach and impact are just as .

可以把 huge 想成大到遠遠超過「大」、幾乎要把你壓過去的那種程度——體積、數量或程度都衝到刻度的最頂端。一旦抓到更多收起可以把 huge 想成大到遠遠超過「大」、幾乎要把你壓過去的那種程度——體積、數量或程度都衝到刻度的最頂端。一旦抓到這種「龐大到破表」的感覺,它就不一定要講實體大小了:一樣東西也可以在「有多紅、多受歡迎」上 huge,意思是它的影響力和觸及範圍同樣大到壓倒性。

這是核心畫面本身:大小、數量或程度都衝到刻度最頂端的那種「龐大」。
