  1. 1aB1/ˌpɑːrtˈtaɪm/ · /ˌpɑːtˈtaɪm/兼職的

    used about a job, a worker, or a course that takes only part of each day or each week, not the full number of hours that people usually work or study.

    示範例句 · Example

    Leo got a part-time job at the bookshop near his school.

    逐字里歐在他學校附近的書店得到了一份兼職的工作。

    part-time 用在名詞前面，說這份工作或這個課程「只佔一天或一週的一部分時間」——例如一週只上三個早上。可以想成一整週的工時被切成好幾塊，part-time 就是只拿其中幾塊，full-time 則是整份都拿走。中文常說「兼職的」；如果是學生課餘去店裡工作，台灣更口語的說法是「打工」或「工讀」。

core核心畫面

You can picture a week cut into blocks. A full-time worker fills the whole set of blocks; a part-time one takes only some of them — a few days, or a few half-days. The word simply names that: you are there for part of the time, not all of it.

可以想成一週的時間被切成好幾塊：全職的人把整排格子填滿，兼職的人只佔其中幾格——也許是每週三天，也許是每天只來半天。這個字說的就是這件事：你只佔掉一部分的時間，不是全部。它描述的是時間的份量，跟工作內容重不重要無關。
