One plane flying straight at a ship, with no plan for coming back. The pilot's own death is not a risk he is running; it is part of how the attack works. Hold that single detail — the ending is decided before take-off — and everything else the word does becomes readable: the attack, the machine, the person, and the borrowed use for anyone who acts as if their own safety is not part of the plan.
可以想成一架飛機直直朝一艘船撞過去，而且沒有回程的打算。飛行員的死不是他冒的風險，是這個攻擊運作的方式。只要抓住這一個細節——結局在起飛前就定了——其他用法就都讀得懂了：攻擊本身、那台機器、那個人，還有借過來形容任何「做事時沒把自己的安全算進去」的人。
From the word’s history
Borrowed from Japanese 神風, kami (divine) + kaze (wind), first used of the typhoon that destroyed the Mongol fleet attacking Japan in 1281.
這個字借自日文 神風：kami 是「神的」，kaze 是「風」。來源說它原本指的是 1281 年摧毀來襲蒙古艦隊的那場颱風。一陣救國的風，後來被拿來命名二戰的攻擊，這個字才進入英文。
