1. 1中段、中部;指身體時也說腰腹

    The midsection is the middle part of something — a plane, a book, a piece of fruit — and very often the middle of a person’s body, around the waist and stomach. American English uses it a fair bit, especially in sport and fitness, where midsection and core show up in the same gym sentences. It is a bit more formal or technical than belly, and a bit wider than : is almost always that band of a person’s front, while midsection can be the middle of any long thing, or the whole middle of the trunk, including the sides and back. If a report says the midsection of a train was damaged, it means the cars in the middle, not anyone’s stomach.
