One way to hold this word is to see a hand drawing a circle around part of a crowd. The circle is what grouping is about: the line that says these belong together and those do not. Look at the ring once it is drawn and you have the set that was made. Look at the hand still moving and you have the work of making it. The two meanings are the same picture, seen a second apart.
可以想成有一隻手在人群裡畫圈。這個字的重點就在那條線上：線裡面的算同一團，線外面的不算。把目光放在畫好的圈上，就是「分出來的那一群」。把目光放在還在移動的手上，就是「分組這件事」。兩個意思其實是同一個畫面，只差看的時間點。
