可以想成一套官方的規則、或一個有權管事的機構,像一把量尺、一條準繩立在某個行業旁邊,把大家對齊、拉直,讓事情照規矩、安全地進行。From the word’s history
Regulatory goes back to Latin regula 'a rule, a straight measuring rod', from a root meaning 'to move in a straight line' — the picture is of a straight edge you hold things up against to keep them in line.
regulatory 可以追到拉丁文 regula,本意是「規尺、量東西用的直木條」,再往上是「走直線」的意思;所以核心畫面是一把準繩——拿它來對照,把東西拉直、擺正,這正是「監管」的底色。
