From the word’s history

From Middle English journe, from Old French jornee, from Latin diurnus, from diēs 'day'.

經古法文 jornee 來自拉丁文 diurnus,字根是 diēs「天」。

Wiktionary

You can picture journey as the whole stretch of going from one place to another, especially a long one — not the single step or the destination, but the long passage in between, from setting off to arriving.

可以想成「從一個地方走到另一個地方」的那整段過程,而且通常是長的——重點不在出發點或終點本身,而在中間那一大段路:上路、移動、抵達。先是身體上真的在空間裡移動,再被借去講人或事物隨時間慢慢改變的那段「路」。
