路上繼續往前
這一家最接近核心畫面,因為腳下踩的就是真的路。
r · C1
Further along the way you are already going; forwards. It is used after verbs of moving, such as walk, ride, sail, or travel, to say that the moving keeps going.
繼續往前
One way to picture 'onwards': you are already on the way, the road has not ended, and you keep going past the point you have reached. The word is not about setting out and not about arriving. It is about the stretch that comes after where you are now. That stretch can be a real road, a line of time, or the progress of something that keeps getting better.
Wiktionary analyses 'onwards' as 'on' + '-wards': 'on' carries continuing, '-wards' points at a direction. The two parts together give the sense of heading further in the direction already taken.
Wiktionary 把 onwards 拆成 on 加 -wards:on 帶著「繼續」,-wards 指「朝某個方向」。合起來可以想成「朝著已經在走的方向再往前」,這條線索正好對上它今天的三個用法。
