核心畫面

You can picture the moment a car stops being used: the driver pulls in, switches off, gets out, and the car just sits there for a while. Parking is that whole act of leaving a vehicle standing somewhere — and English then lets the same word stand for the place where you do it.

可以想成車子從「在用」變成「放著」的那一刻:駕駛把車開進位子、熄火、下車,車子就留在原地待一段時間。parking 更多收起可以想成車子從「在用」變成「放著」的那一刻:駕駛把車開進位子、熄火、下車,車子就留在原地待一段時間。parking 講的就是這整件事——不是開,而是停下來並離開它。英文接著讓同一個字也拿來指做這件事的那塊地方。
