喜樂美語
  1. 1縮圖（小圖示）；（原意）拇指指甲

    A thumbnail is literally the nail on your thumb. But the common use today is different: a thumbnail is a small picture, often a small version of a bigger photo or video image, used so you can look at many pictures quickly before choosing one — like the thumbnails you see under a YouTube video.
