喜樂美語

Picture a rounded swelling that at one end — fat and smooth at the bottom, where it joins on. An onion has that shape; so does the glass part of a lamp. One way to hold the word is that it names the shape first, and the two things it points at are simply two things built that way.

可以想成：一個圓鼓鼓、往一端收窄的形狀——底下飽滿光滑，接上去的地方細下來。洋蔥是這個形狀，燈的那顆玻璃也是。一種理解方式是：這個字先認的是形狀，它指到的兩樣東西，只是剛好都長成這樣。
