喜樂美語

You can picture escape as breaking out of something that holds you and getting clear of it — slipping past the wall, the guard, the trap. From a person breaking free, the picture spreads to dodging danger, to gas leaking out of a pipe, and even to a fact slipping past your memory.

可以想成從某個困住你的東西裡掙脫出來、跑到外面去——溜過牆、躲過守衛、脫離陷阱。從「人掙脫跑掉」這個畫面，延伸到躲過危險、氣體從管子裡漏出去、甚至一個名字從你記憶裡溜走。
