吃的東西
核心畫面本身，也是這個字最常見、最中性的用法。

小香腸／熱狗腸
核心畫面
You can hold on to one small, soft, short sausage — the kind a child pushes onto a stick over a fire. It is little, it bends, it is cheap, and you never eat just one. Every other use of the word keeps some part of that picture. Aimed at a person it keeps the softness, and means someone who bends instead of standing firm. Used in card games it keeps the smallness and the number: one is nothing, a handful wins.

可以想成一根短短軟軟的小香腸，就是小孩插在樹枝上烤的那種。它很小、會彎、很便宜，而且從來不會只吃一根。這個字其他的用法，都還留著這張圖的一部分。用在人身上，留下的是「軟」——遇到事情就彎下去，不是站穩的那種人。用在卡牌遊戲，留下的是「小」跟「多」——一張不算什麼，一堆就能贏。這條線是方便記的說法，資料裡沒有給這個字的字源，所以不是在講歷史。Three branches
拿來說人的話
從香腸的「軟、小、不起眼」聯想到人：不夠硬、不夠有份量。這是一條幫助記憶的聯想，資料裡沒有字源可以證明它真的是這樣長出來的。
noun · B2
An insulting name for someone who is weak, easily frightened, or slow to understand. Children use it far more than adults, and it can also be used about yourself as a joke.
膽小鬼／孬種
卡牌遊戲的行話
留下的是「小」和「多」：一根香腸餵不飽人，一盤才行；一張小生物牌沒有用，一堆才會贏。
