    On the table was a vase of pink roses.

    逐字在桌子上是一瓶粉紅玫瑰。

    「vase」是英文裡「專門插花、或擺著好看」的容器，中文就是「花瓶」。它跟 bottle 不一樣：bottle 口窄、多半裝喝的液體；vase 口通常較開，讓花枝站起來好看。核心畫面可以想成「一個為了讓花站好、也讓桌子變漂亮的瓶子」。常見：a vase of flowers（一瓶花）、a glass vase（玻璃花瓶）。

core核心畫面

Picture a tall glass container on a table with water in the bottom and cut flowers leaning out of the top. Its whole job is to hold flowers upright and look good doing it — which is why an empty one still sits on the shelf as decoration.

可以想成：桌上一個高高的玻璃容器，底部裝著水，剪下來的花從瓶口斜斜地探出來。它的功用就是讓花站著、順便好看——所以就算裡面沒插花，空的花瓶也照樣擺在架上當擺飾。
