Picture a circle drawn on the map around the spot you are standing on. `Locally` means inside that circle and no further. That boundary is the whole word: the vegetables were grown inside it (`grown locally`), the phone call never crossed it (`call locally`), the heavy rain fell on one patch inside it and nowhere else. The word itself never says how big the circle is — the situation decides that, from one street to a whole county.

可以想成在地圖上,繞著你站的位置畫一個圈。locally 講的就是「圈裡面,不出這個圈」。菜是在圈裡種的(grown locally)、電話沒有打出這個圈(call locally)、大雨只落在圈裡的某一小塊。這個字本身從來不說圈有多大,圈的大小是由當下的情況決定的——可能只是一條街,也可能是一整個縣市。
