quicker route · noun
A way of getting somewhere that is quicker and more direct than the usual road or path, often by cutting across something instead of going around it.
捷徑；近路
Look at a map. The usual road bends round the outside of a block, and someone has drawn a straight line across the middle instead. Something has been cut out - a corner, a loop, a stretch of walking. That is the whole word: the way across instead of the way round.
short cut 的核心畫面可以想成一張地圖：平常的路沿著外圍繞一圈，而有人直接在中間畫了一條直線切過去。有一段被切掉了——一個轉角、一個繞路、一段走的時間。整個字就是這個：不是繞過去，是穿過去。理解了地圖上這一刀，另一個「做事省步驟」的意思就只是把同一張圖換成一件工作。
