Picture a room with the door open and nothing in it: no one is using it, and anyone could walk in. The word says 'empty and free' — not broken, not closed, just unoccupied. Point it at a job and it means the post is open; point it at a face and it means nobody seems to be at home behind the eyes.
可以想成:一個房間門開著,裡面空空的,沒有人在用,誰都可以走進去。這個字說的是「空著、而且是可以用的空」——不是壞掉,也不是關起來,就只是沒有人佔著。把它指向一份工作,意思是這個位子開著;指向一張臉,就是眼睛後面好像沒有人在。
