Picture a body that is strong, whole, and working as it should — not sick, full of life. That single image of 'sound and well' is the root: first a healthy body, then anything that keeps a body well, anything that looks well, and finally — by metaphor — any system (a mind, a company, a bank balance) that is in good working order.

可以想成一個強壯、完整、運作正常的身體——不生病、充滿生命力。「結實、安好」這個畫面比較像整個字的根:先是健康的身體,再延伸到任何能讓身體保持安好的東西、任何看起來很有精神的樣子,最後用比喻把它搬到別的系統上——一種心態、一間公司、一筆存款——只要運作得好、狀況良好,都可以說是 healthy。
