    「sunscreen」是擦在皮膚上、擋陽光的乳或油,台灣常說「防曬乳」(有時也說防曬霜/防曬油,看質地)。核心畫面可以想成「在皮膚上加一層 screen(擋一層)」——不是硬牆,是會擦上、出汗或游泳後還要再補的保護。常見搭配:apply / put on sunscreen、high-factor sunscreen、reapply sunscreen。跟 sunblock 很近:sunscreen 是日常總稱;sunblock 常帶「更用力擋住」的感覺(產品包裝用語)。

core核心畫面

One way to picture sunscreen: a thin layer you rub on that stands between your skin and the sun — the word says it , a screen against the sun. It is uncountable, so you put on sunscreen or use a high-factor sunscreen rather than counting them.

可以想成 sunscreen 是抹在皮膚上的那層薄薄的東西,擋在你和太陽之間——這個字本身就講明了:對著太陽的一道屏障(sun + screen)。它不可數,所以英文說 put on sunscreen、use a high-factor sunscreen,不會去數它幾個。
