  1. 1nB2/ˌkriːeɪˈtɪvət̬i/ · /ˌkriːeɪˈtɪvəti/創造力

    the ability to use your imagination to make new ideas or new things.

    示範例句 · Example

    Mei shows real artistic creativity in her watercolor paintings.

    逐字美在她的水彩畫裡顯示真正的藝術創造力。

    「creativity」是英文裡「用想像力想出新點子、做出新東西」的能力。它通常不可數，所以多半說 creativity、encourage creativity，不說 a creativity。跟 creation 容易搞混——creation 是做出來的「作品／創造物」，creativity 是做出那些東西的「能力」。跟 creative 也很近：creative 是形容詞（a creative idea），creativity 是名詞。核心畫面可以想成「腦袋裡長出新東西的力量」——藝術、遊戲設計、解題方法，都像從這張畫面長出來。

core核心畫面

The power to see in your head something that is not in front of you yet, and then make it exist — a song, a solution, a way around a problem. It names an ability a person carries, not any one thing they made.

可以想成：先在腦袋裡看見一個還不存在的東西，然後把它做出來——一首歌、一個解法、一條繞過難題的路。creativity 指的是人身上的這個能力，不是做出來的某一件作品（那是 creation）。所以它不可數，也不會有複數。
