From the word’s history

From Old English sala 'act of selling', from Old Norse sala.

源自古英文 sala「賣東西」,借自古諾斯語 sala。

Wiktionary

You can picture 'sale' as the single moment of handing something over and getting money back for it — the act of selling. Almost every other use is that one event seen from a different angle: counted up over time, made available, marked down in price, or built into a fixed phrase.

可以把 sale 想成「把東西交出去、換回錢」的那一刻——也就是「賣」這個動作。後面幾乎所有用法,都是同一件事換個角度看:把它累計起來算數量、把東西擺出來等人買、把價錢往下調,或固定成片語。
