喜樂美語

You can think of all right as a quick check that comes back clean. Someone runs their eye over a person, a plan or a moment and finds nothing wrong anywhere: all of it is right. Everything else this phrase does grows out of that one moment of checking. If the check is about a body, it means . If it is about a thing, it means good enough and no more. If it is about a plan, it means it fits you. And if the check happens inside a conversation, it becomes the small word that says we are still together, carry on.

all right 可以想成一次快速的檢查，而且檢查結果是乾淨的。有人用眼睛掃過一個人、一個計畫或一個當下，發現沒有一處不對：all（全部）都 right（沒問題）。這個片語後面所有的用法，都可以看成從這一次檢查長出來的。檢查的是身體，就是沒受傷。檢查的是東西，就是過得去而已。檢查的是安排，就是配合得上你。而當這個檢查發生在對話裡，它就變成那個小小的字，用來說：我們還對得上，繼續。
