Picture setting something down on the table in front of other people and back: here it is — now you decide. The word is always that gesture of putting forward for a response. What gets put forward changes (a plan, a name, a theory, a question about marriage, a toast), but the shape never does: one side offers, the other side answers.
可以想成：把一樣東西放到桌上、推到別人面前，然後退開一步——東西在這裡了，換你們決定。這個字始終是這個「往前遞出、等對方回應」的動作。遞出去的東西會變（一個計畫、一個人選、一套理論、一句求婚的話、一次舉杯），但形狀從來沒變：一邊提出，另一邊回應。
