One of the five small parts at the end of your foot — the very front edge of where your body meets the ground. Because toes sit at the boundary between you and the world, most of this word's other meanings are about edges: the front tip of a shoe, over a line into someone else's space, standing ready on the balls of your feet, or dipping just the tip of yourself into something new.

可以想成腳最前端那五根小小的、可以動的部分。腳趾剛好在你和地面接觸的最前緣,所以這個字延伸出去的用法大多跟「邊緣」有關:鞋子最前面那一塊、踩過線進到別人的地盤、腳跟離地隨時準備動的姿勢,還有只把腳尖伸進水裡試一下。
