1. 1aA2/draɪd/乾燥的;曬乾的

    used about food or plants that have had the water taken out of them, usually so that they keep for a long time or can be stored easily.

    示範例句 · Example

    Mum keeps dried herbs in small jars above the stove.

    逐字媽媽把乾燥香草放在爐子上方的小罐子裡。

    「dried」講的是「水分已經被抽掉」的東西——香草、水果、牛奶、花都可以。可以想成 dry(弄乾)這個動作做完之後留下的樣子:水走了,東西還在,所以放得久、也好收。它最常跟 fresh 對照:fresh herbs 是剛摘下、還有水分的,dried herbs 是曬乾或烘乾後裝進罐子的。

core核心畫面

Think of something that once held water inside it — a grape, a , a flower, a fish — left in the sun or in warm air until the water is gone. What remains is smaller, tougher, darker, and it will now sit on a shelf for months without going bad. That whole picture is what dried marks: not simply 'not wet', but 'the water has been taken out on purpose, and that is why it keeps'.

可以想成一顆葡萄放在太陽下,水分一天一天走掉,最後皺成一顆小小的葡萄乾——體積縮了、顏色深了、口感變韌了,可是它現在能在櫃子裡放好幾個月不壞。dried 抓住的就是這整個畫面:不只是「現在沒有濕」,而是「水分被特意抽掉了,所以它才存得住」。
