- 1觀星、看星星(這個活動);引申也可以指「空想、不切實際的想像」。注意這是「事情」不是「人」,人是 stargazer。
The activity of looking at the stars in the night sky — going somewhere dark, lying back, and watching. It is the noun for what a does, and it is what you say when you plan an evening: we went stargazing, the weather was good for stargazing. Note that the line you were given says 'someone who studies astronomy' — that is the person word (). Stargazing is the doing, not the person. It also carries the second meaning: , thinking about big far-off things instead of the practical matter in front of you. Used that way it is critical — 'that's just stargazing' means the plan is lovely and not real. It works as a noun and also in front of another noun (a stargazing trip).
組成star + gaze + -ing — the -ing turns the action into a thing you can do or talk about.
