核心畫面

Picture the coldest stretch of the year — short dark days, bare trees, maybe snow — the season that comes after autumn and before spring. That cold season is winter; everything else the word does grows out of naming that time.

可以想成一年裡最冷的那一段:白天變短、天色暗得早、樹葉掉光、也許還會下雪——秋天之後、春天之前的那個季節。winte更多收起可以想成一年裡最冷的那一段:白天變短、天色暗得早、樹葉掉光、也許還會下雪——秋天之後、春天之前的那個季節。winter 的核心比較像「這段最冷的時節」這個畫面,名詞講的是這個季節,動詞則是把這個季節當成一段要度過的時間。

From the picture

在某地度過寒季(動詞)

把「冬天」這個季節名詞當成一段要待過去的時間:你不只是經歷它,而是選一個地方把整個寒季待完。
