Picture someone who does not know the answer yet, setting something up to find out: change one thing, watch what happens. That is the whole word — trying in order to learn, with the result genuinely open. A lab bench is only the tidiest version of it.

可以想成:有人還不知道答案,於是動手設計一個試法——改動一個地方,看看會發生什麼。整個字就是這件事:為了弄清楚而去試,而且結果真的還沒定。實驗室的檯子只是這件事最整齊的一種版本,換成廚房、教室或人生也一樣成立。
