One way to hold it: the box on the kitchen counter that heats food from the inside out in two minutes. The name is built from what it uses — micro (very small) + wave — so the machine, the wave itself, and the act of using the machine all end up sharing one word.

可以想成廚房檯面上那台箱子:東西丟進去,兩分鐘就從裡面熱起來。它的名字其實是從它用的東西來的——micro(極小)+ wave(波),所以這台機器、那種波本身、還有「拿它來加熱」這個動作,最後都共用同一個字。
