喜樂美語

One way to hold this word: a hard shell added to the outside of something soft. Knock on it and it sounds flat and heavy. The shell does one job — it keeps what is outside from getting in. Once you have that picture, the word can move outward from the thing wearing the shell to the people who work inside it.

「armoured」可以想成在一個原本脆弱的東西外面，多加了一層硬殼。敲下去聲音又悶又重。那層殼只做一件事：把外面的傷害擋在外面。抓住這個畫面之後，這個字就可以從「穿著殼的東西」往外走一步，變成「在殼裡面做事的那群人」。
