You can picture this word as a place where nothing is fighting anything else: no noise pushing at you, no argument in the room, no one raising a hand. Everything that could clash is simply resting. From that one quiet picture, the word stretches outward — first to a quiet afternoon, then to two countries who settle things without a war, then to a person who never lets anger turn into force.
一個「沒有東西在互相衝撞」的狀態：沒有吵雜的聲音撞過來、沒有爭執在空氣裡繃著、沒有人舉起手。所有本來可能起衝突的東西，都安安靜靜地擱著。從這一個畫面往外長：先是一個安靜無事的午後，再來是兩邊不打仗就把事情談完，最後是一個人就算生氣也不動粗。英文裡這三個意思其實共用同一張圖——差別只在「衝突」是發生在環境裡、國家之間，還是一個人的脾氣裡。
