摸得到的表面
這一族就是那塊布本身:真的用手摸得到高低。差別只在說不說清楚是「哪一種」質地。
adjective · B2
Having a surface that is not smooth, so that you can feel or see small bumps, lines, or a raised pattern on it.
有紋理的
Textured can be pictured as a piece of cloth held up to the light: the surface is not one flat thing, it is made of threads crossing each other, so your fingers catch on it and the light breaks up across it. Everything this word does comes back to that — a surface with small parts in it, rather than one blank plane. Move the picture from the hand to the ear or the eye of a reader, and the same word describes a song or a novel made of many strands.
Wiktionary gives textured as texture + -ed, and traces texture through Middle French texture to Latin textūra, from texō, to weave. The weaving picture is not a decoration added later: it is the oldest thing in the word.
根據 Wiktionary,textured 是 texture 加上 -ed;而 texture 經由中古法文 texture 上溯到拉丁文 textūra,來自 texō「編織」。所以「織」這個畫面不是後來附加的比喻,而是這個字最早就有的東西。摸得到的紋理、和作品裡交疊的層次,剛好是同一塊布的兩種看法。

作品裡的層次
把那塊布從手上拿開,放進一本書、一首歌裡:摸不到了,但「很多條線交疊在一起」這件事一模一樣。這是概念上的延伸,方便理解,不是在說歷史上先有哪一個。
adjective · C1
Used about a work of art, a book, a piece of music, a film and so on that is made of many different parts put together, so that the whole thing feels rich and full rather than plain.
