喜樂美語

Picture the first few blocks at the bottom of a stack — the pieces everything else is built out of, and the ones you meet first. Because they come first, they are also the easy ones, which is why the same word can name a beginner's course, a school for young children, and a joking way of saying 'that was obvious'.

可以想成：一疊積木最底下的那幾塊——既是其他東西的組成單位，也是你最先碰到的。因為在最前面，它們同時也是最簡單的；這個「基本＝最先＝最容易」的三合一，就是為什麼同一個字可以用在入門課程、美國的小學，還有一句半開玩笑的「這還用說」。
