- 1相配的、成套的、同款的
Matching, as an adjective, means things that go together — same colour, same style, same pattern: matching socks, a matching coat and hat. Clothes shops and everyday talk use it all the time; it is not a fancy word. Though actually the same spelling also turns up when people pair things: matching names to faces, matching a student with a teacher. Banks and charities talk about matching funds, when they give the same amount you give. This match is the “go together / be a pair” match, not the fire-stick match — the two English words look the same and catch out.
From the word’s history
From match 'pair', from Old English ġemæċċa 'companion, mate, one suited to another'.
來自 match「相配」，源自古英文 ġemæċċa「伴侶、相配的人」。
組成From match (to go together / to pair) + -ing.
