Picture a task landing on your desk with your name on it: someone decided this one is yours. The word covers both ends of that moment — the piece of work you were handed, and the act of handing things out. What it never means is work you picked for yourself.

可以想成:一件工作落到你桌上,上面寫著你的名字——是某個人決定這件由你負責。這個字同時涵蓋那一刻的兩端:被交下來的那份工作,以及「分派」這個動作本身。要注意它的重點永遠是「有人指派」,自己主動找來做的事不會叫 assignment。
