Something so beautiful it makes you stop and stare—beauty that lands almost physically, like a flood of warmth and pleasure when you look at it. The original picture is a splendid, sight; the word always carries that punch of delight, never plain 'nice-looking'.
可以想成美到讓你停下來、忍不住多看一眼的那種畫面——美得幾乎有重量，看著它時心裡會湧上一股暖暖的、被取悅的感覺。這個字最早的畫面比較像「華麗、燦爛、亮眼」的景象，所以它一向帶著一股強烈的喜悅，不只是「還算好看」而已。
