椰子
Think of a big brown seed from a tall palm tree in a hot place: a hard hairy shell you have to crack open, thick white food lining the inside, and a thin milky liquid you can drink. The whole thing sits in your two hands like a heavy ball.
可以想成熱帶高高的椰子樹上結的那顆大棕色果實：外殼硬又帶著粗毛，要敲開才進得去；裡面貼著一層厚厚的白色果肉，中間還有一汪淡淡的椰水可以喝。整顆捧在手上沉甸甸的，像一顆重球——這顆「連殼帶肉」的完整果實，就是這個字的起點，另一個意思則是從裡面那層白肉切出來的。
