    示範例句 · Example

    Leo went to the school nurse because he had a bad earache.

    逐字里歐去了學校的護理師那裡，因為他有一個很嚴重的耳朵痛。

    「earache」講的是耳朵「裡面」的那種痛，不是耳朵外面被撞到或擦傷。它跟 headache（頭痛）、toothache（牙痛）、stomachache（肚子痛）是同一組字，可以想成都是「某個身體部位 + ache（持續的鈍痛）」拼起來的，學會一個就讀得懂其他的。英式英文多半說 have earache（不加 a），美式英文說 have an earache，兩種都自然，只是屬於不同的系統。

core核心畫面

Think of a pain that sits deep inside the ear, not on the outside where you can touch it. It is the kind of that keeps going for hours rather than stabbing once — dull, steady, sometimes throbbing in time with your pulse, and close enough to your hearing that sound and sleep both get harder.

可以想成一種住在耳朵「裡面」的痛——不是耳廓摸得到的地方，而是更深、你手構不著的那一層。它的感覺不是刺一下就走，而是悶悶地、一陣一陣地留著，有時還跟著心跳的節奏跳。因為痛的位置就在聽覺旁邊，這種痛常常同時讓人睡不好、也聽不太清楚。
