core核心畫面

Picture something already in motion when you look at it — it started before now, it has not stopped, and no end is in sight yet. The word freezes that middle stretch and hangs it on a noun.

可以想成：你看過去的時候，那件事已經在動了——它在你看之前就開始，現在還沒停，而且看不到結束的點。這個字把「中間那一段」凝結起來，掛在名詞前面用。所以它強調的不是快不快，而是「還沒完」。

意思相近

continuingcontinuouscurrentdevelopingunfinishedin progress
