If something is ineffable, it is too great, too beautiful, too holy, or too strange to put into words. You feel it clearly, but language is not enough.

If something is ineffable如果一樣東西是ineffable， it is too great, too beautiful, too holy, or too strange to put into words代表它太偉大、太美、太神聖，或太奇特，無法用言語表達。 You feel it clearly你清楚地感覺得到， but language is not enough但語言不夠用。

This is a literary, rather churchy or poetic word, not everyday chat. Writers use it for God, for a huge feeling of wonder, for music, for love, or for a moment that stops you.

This is a literary, rather churchy or poetic word這是一個文學性的、有點宗教或詩意的字， not everyday chat不是日常聊天會用的。 Writers use it for God, for a huge feeling of wonder, for music, for love, or for a moment that stops you作者會用它來形容神、巨大的驚奇感、音樂、愛，或是讓你停下來的那個瞬間。

Though actually, people also use it more loosely now to mean 'amazingly good' or 'I cannot explain how strong this feeling is', even when they could find words if they tried. It is not the same as 'I do not know the word'. The point is that words fail because the thing itself is beyond them.

Though actually不過其實， people also use it more loosely now to mean 'amazingly good' or 'I cannot explain how strong this feeling is'現在人們也比較鬆散地用它來表示「好到不可思議」，或「我無法解釋這種感覺有多強烈」， even when they could find words if they tried就算他們其實努力想想還是找得到字。 It is not the same as 'I do not know the word'這跟「我不知道那個字」不一樣。 The point is that words fail重點是言語會失效， because the thing itself is beyond them是因為那個東西本身就超出言語所能及。
