    Though actually, you almost never use it for food or everyday things: chocolate, butter, and ice are melted, not molten. Molten is for stuff that needs fierce heat to go liquid.

    Though actually不過其實 you almost never use it for food or everyday things你幾乎不會拿它形容食物或日常的東西 chocolate, butter, and ice are melted, not molten像巧克力、奶油、冰塊融化要說melted,不是molten Molten Molten is for stuff只用在 that needs fierce heat to go liquid需要猛烈高溫才會變成液體的東西上。

    In older English this was simply a past form of melt; English kept that old shape for this high-heat sense, while melted became the everyday word.

    In older English在較早的英文裡 this was simply a past form of melt這個字原本只是melt的過去式 English kept that old shape英文把這個舊形式保留下來 for this high-heat sense用在這個高溫的意思上 while melted became the everyday word而melted則變成日常用的字。
