拿在手上搖的容器
這一家全是「裝東西、然後搖」的容器。差別只在裡面裝什麼，以及搖是為了撒開、混勻，還是為了公平。

核心畫面
A hand holding something and moving it quickly back and forth. That is all the word contains: shake, plus -er, the one that does it. Everything else is a matter of what is in the hand and why it is moving. Put salt in it and the shaking spreads the salt evenly; put a drink and ice in it and the shaking mixes and chills; put beads in a tube and the shaking makes a sound; put dice in a cup and the shaking makes the throw fair.

「shaker」可以想成一隻手抓著東西，快速地前後搖。這個字裡面大概就只有這麼多：shake（搖）加上 -er（做這件事的那個）。剩下的差別，只在手裡拿的是什麼、為什麼要搖。裝鹽，搖出來就撒得勻；裝飲料和冰塊，搖一搖就混勻又變冰；管子裡裝小珠子，搖起來就有聲音；杯子裡裝骰子，搖過才算公平。連 Shakers 這群人的名字，也來自聚會時身體搖動的樣子。實際使用時，shaker 前面那個字幾乎都在告訴你搖的是什麼。From the word’s history
From shake plus -er. The dictionary traces shake back through Middle English schaken and Old English sceacan. For the religious group, the source states plainly that the name came from the movements the members made in dancing, which formed part of their worship.
由 shake 加上 -er 組成。字典把 shake 一路追到中古英語 schaken、古英語 sceacan。至於大寫的 Shaker，字典寫得很清楚：這個名字來自成員聚會跳舞時的身體動作，而那是他們敬拜的一部分。所以人和器具走的其實是同一條構詞路線。

A person or a thing that shakes something, or that something is shaken with.
搖動的人或裝置
因為「搖」而得名的一群人和他們的風格
字典說明這個名字來自成員聚會跳舞時的身體動作，所以它跟鹽罐走的是同一條構詞路線，只是被搖的是人自己。這兩個意思都要大寫 S。
