底下開始動了
最貼著字面的一家：湯匙剛進去，只看得到最早的一點動靜。

萌芽的跡象
核心畫面
Picture a pot that has been standing still. Everything heavy has settled at the bottom and the surface looks flat and quiet. Then a spoon goes in. What was lying still is lifted, and the whole pot starts to move. Both uses of this word live on that moment. One watches the very first movement, when you can only just see that something down there has begun to shift. The other watches what a speech or a song does to a room full of people whose feelings had settled the same way.

可以想成一鍋放著沒動的湯。重的東西都沉在底下，表面平平靜靜。然後湯匙伸進去。原本靜靜躺著的東西被翻了上來，整鍋開始動。這個字的兩個用法都活在那一刻。一個看的是最早的那一點動靜，你只能勉強看出底下有東西開始動了。另一個看的是一場演講或一首歌，對一屋子情緒也沉澱下來的人做了什麼。From the word’s history
The source analyses the word as stir + -ing, so both uses sit directly on the verb stir.
來源資料把這個字分析為 stir ＋ -ing，也就是「攪動」加上名詞或形容詞的字尾。所以兩個用法都直接坐在動詞 stir 上面，攪動的畫面不是比喻的裝飾，而是這個字的來處。
