Picture the spot at the top: the place where the orders come from. Standing there does three things at once. Your word carries, so people act on it. Nothing blocks your eyes, so you see the whole scene below. And you are ahead of everyone who is still climbing. Commanding usually describes that spot — or the feeling of someone who seems to be standing in it — rather than any single action.

可以想成一個站在最上面的位置:命令是從那裡發出來的。站在那裡同時有三件事發生。你說的話有人照做。前面沒有東西擋住,底下看得一清二楚。而且你走在還在往上爬的人前面。commanding 形容的多半就是這個位置,或是某個人身上那種「像是站在那裡」的感覺,而不是某個動作。
