喜樂美語

One way to hold it: the eyes touch something and leave again. It is over almost before it starts — you look up, take in whatever can be taken in from one flick of the eyes, and look away. Because that flick is so short, English builds several set phrases on it to mean "immediately, from one look".

可以想成眼睛碰了一下就離開：幾乎還沒開始就結束了——抬眼、抓住那一瞬間看得到的東西、再移開。正因為這一下這麼短，英文用它組了幾個固定說法，用來表示「看一眼就…」。
