寫下來的規則,以及照著它做
兩個意思共用同一個畫面:一本可以翻開的規則書。一個是那本書本身,一個是「照著書上那一行做」的態度。
noun · B2
A book that holds the rules of a job, a sport, or a game, so that anyone taking part can look up what is allowed and what is not.
規則手冊
You can picture a rulebook as the one object that settles an argument: a book on the shelf or in the game box, with the rules of a job, a sport or a game printed inside, that anyone can open and point at.
The word is simply rule + book, so the modern meaning sits right on the surface: the book where the rules are.
資料上的字源就是 rule(規則)+ book(書)。所以今天的意思跟字面幾乎重疊:放規則的那本書。也因為這樣,這個字沒有需要額外記的轉折。
