    逐字美的家人每天早上開一輛小小的白色轎車去學校。

    「sedan」是美式／澳式英語裡常見的「轎車」——通常有四個門、能坐四人以上，後面還有獨立放行李的空間（美式叫 trunk，英式叫 boot）。How can we think of it? 一種想法是把它想成三節車身：引擎、座位、行李廂分開。它跟 hatchback（後門整片往上開、行李艙跟座位連通）不一樣，也跟 convertible（敞篷車）不一樣。英國英語常說 saloon，意思大致相同。

core核心畫面

The ordinary family car shape: four doors, a proper back seat, and a boot that is closed off from where the people sit. Three separate boxes — engine, passengers, luggage — is the shape the word names.

可以想成：最普通的家庭房車樣子——四個門、後座坐得下人、後面一個跟乘客空間隔開的行李廂。引擎、人、行李各自一格，這種「三廂」的形狀就是這個字指的東西。跟休旅車（SUV）或掀背車（hatchback）的差別，關鍵就在行李空間有沒有跟車內隔開。
