noun · C1
The soft, attractive shine on the surface of something such as hair, pearls, silk, metal or polished wood, seen when light falls on it and comes back.
光澤
One way to hold this word: a surface that gives light back. Light falls on hair, on a pearl, on polished wood, and the surface answers with a soft, even shine of its own. Nothing is burning and nothing is flashing. The thing simply looks alive under the light, and that look is what lustre names.
The shine word came into English from Middle French lustre.
「光澤」這一支是從中古法文 lustre 借進英文的;同一個字的美式拼法是 luster。
