You can think of it as light (not heavy) turned into a way of doing something: your hand comes down with almost no weight behind it. The knock, the touch, the press is there — you can feel it — but it barely presses in, so it stays soft, brief and quiet. From that one gesture, everything else follows: a thin scatter of flour weighs almost nothing, and so does a matter you barely let press on you.

可以想成把 light(不重)搬到「怎麼做」上面:手放下去幾乎沒帶重量。碰是碰到了、敲也敲了,感覺得出來,但沒有壓進去,所以整個動作是軟的、短的、安靜的。之後的意思都從這個手勢長出來——薄薄撒上的一層麵粉幾乎沒有重量,而一件你不讓它壓在心上的事,同樣沒有重量。
