  1. 1aC1/ˌɪnfluˈenʃəl/有影響力的

    having a lot of influence, so other people change the way they think or act.

    示範例句 · Example

    Mei writes for the school paper, and her articles are highly influential.

    逐字美為學校報紙寫稿，而且她的文章是高度有影響力的。

    「influential」是「有影響力的」——別人會聽你說的話、看你做的事，想法或行為因此改變。它跟 powerful 很近，但感覺不一樣：powerful 帶有「能掌控、能命令」的力量；influential 更常是「大家重視你的意見，所以事情往某個方向走」。常見句型：influential in shaping / changing something（在形塑／改變某事上有影響力）。核心畫面可以想成「輕輕推動別人的想法」——不是硬抓控制權，而是別人願意跟你的方向走。

core核心畫面

You can picture an influential person or thing as one that changes the shape of what happens around it without giving orders: people listen, and afterwards they think or act differently. The power here is not the power to command — it is the power to move other people's minds.

可以想成 influential 的畫面比較像「它一出現，周圍的人事後就不太一樣了」：不是靠命令，而是別人聽了、看了之後，想法或做法真的變了。這個字講的力量不是「我叫你做」，而是「你自己改變了」。
