One way to hold this word: a line drawn around something, and nothing crossing it. Draw the line close to your body and you get a confined space, where the walls are near enough to touch. Draw it around a town and you get a flood confined to that town. Draw it around a bed and you get a person confined to bed. The line is the same every time; what changes is what sits inside it, and how much room that leaves.

可以想成有人在某樣東西外面畫了一圈線,而且沒有東西越得過去。線畫得貼近身體,就是 a confined space,牆伸手就摸得到。線畫在一個城鎮外面,就是災情只到那裡為止。線畫在一張床邊,就是有人只能躺在上面。線一直是同一條,變的是圈在裡面的是什麼,還有裡面剩多少空間。
