One small room, set aside for one purpose, that other people come into. In a house that room was kept for visitors: good chairs, a closed door, tea when someone called. The same picture can be walked into from the street — a little place you step into for one thing and one thing only, ice cream or a tattoo or a funeral.
可以想成一個小小的房間，專門留給一件事、留給外面的人走進來。在老房子裡，那是留給客人的房間：好一點的椅子，平常門關著，有人來訪才打開。把同一個畫面搬到街上，就變成一家只做一件事的小店——你推門進去，就是為了冰淇淋、為了刺青、為了辦一場喪禮，辦完就走。這個字今天單獨用得少，但貼在別的字後面時還活得好好的。
