core核心畫面

You can picture an official person handing you a stamped permission slip — from now on you are formally allowed to do, own, or use the thing. To 'license' someone is to be the one who grants that permission.

可以想成一位有權的官方人員，把一張蓋了章的許可正式交到你手上：從這一刻起，你被「正式准許」去做、去擁有、或去使用某樣東西。動詞 license 就是「擔任發出這份准許的那一方」——核心畫面比較像這個「正式放行」的動作。
