Hold one picture: a bright, burning ball in the middle, and a whole household of smaller things going round and round it, each one kept in place by the pull of that ball. Nearly everything this phrase does comes from that picture. Point at the one we live in and you need the. Point at somebody else's and you can count them. And one more use borrows only the word solar, from sunlight rather than from the Sun as a centre.
先抓住一個畫面:中間一顆又亮又燙的球,外面一整家子比較小的東西繞著它轉,每一個都被那顆球拉著,跑不掉。這個詞幾乎所有的用法都從這個畫面來。指我們住的這一組,前面就要有 the;指別人家的那一組,就可以一個一個數。另外還有一個用法,只借走了 solar 這個字——借的是陽光,不是「以太陽為中心」這件事。
登入就可以看每一支怎麼連回核心畫面。
