核心畫面

Picture something bad hasn't arrived yet, but a person or a sign taps you on the shoulder first: 'Careful, there may be trouble ahead.' Warning is like that early heads-up — it buys you time to get ready, get out of the way, or protect yourself.

可以想成危險還沒到,就先有人或有個信號拍拍你的肩:「小心,前面可能有狀況。」warning 的核心畫面比較像這個「提更多收起可以想成危險還沒到,就先有人或有個信號拍拍你的肩:「小心,前面可能有狀況。」warning 的核心畫面比較像這個「提前的提醒」——它給你一段時間去準備、去躲、去防。
