minted · brand new

a

Picture a coin being pressed out by a machine. Plain metal goes in, the machine stamps a face and a year onto it, and out comes a thing with a fixed shape and a shiny surface that nobody has touched yet. That is minted in its plainest use, and the other uses on this side of the word borrow the same picture.

可以想成一枚硬幣剛從壓模裡出來的畫面。金屬進去的時候還沒有樣子，機器一壓，圖案和年份就定在上面了。出來的那一刻它亮亮的，形狀固定，還沒有人用過。這一邊的 minted，幾個意思都可以看成從這個「剛壓好、亮晶晶」的畫面長出來的。

A different mint: the green plant with a cool, sharp smell. Picture mint leaves dropped into a pot of peas or a of water, so that the whole thing tastes cool and fresh. Food that has had that done to it is minted.

這裡的 mint 跟錢沒有關係，是那株聞起來涼涼的薄荷。可以想成把薄荷葉丟進一鍋豌豆或一壺水裡，整鍋、整壺的味道就跟著變清爽。被這樣處理過的食物或飲料，就叫 minted。
