核心畫面

Picture the person with the measuring tape around their neck: they take your shoulders, your arm, your waist, and then cut the cloth to those numbers — nobody else's. That image of measuring one body and shaping the thing to fit it is what the whole word carries, whether the thing being shaped is a jacket or a training course.

可以想成:脖子上掛著皮尺的那個人。他量你的肩、你的手長、你的腰,然後照這些數字裁布——別人的尺寸不算數。整個字帶的就更多收起可以想成:脖子上掛著皮尺的那個人。他量你的肩、你的手長、你的腰,然後照這些數字裁布——別人的尺寸不算數。整個字帶的就是這個畫面:先量這一個對象,再把東西照他的形狀做出來。後來被裁剪的東西不一定是衣服,可能是一套課程、一份方案,但「照這一個人的尺寸來」的味道沒有變。
