    「violin」是英文裡的「小提琴」——一種小小的木頭樂器,你把它夾在下巴下面,再用弓(bow)在弦上拉出聲音。它比 viola(中提琴)和 cello(大提琴)都小、聲音也比較高。非正式場合有人會叫它 fiddle,多半指民謠或鄉村音樂裡的同一種琴。

core核心畫面

Picture a small wooden body tucked between chin and shoulder, the left hand up at the neck pressing the strings, the right hand drawing a bow across them — the sound comes from that pulling, not from hitting or blowing.

可以想成:一個小小的木頭琴身夾在下巴和肩膀之間,左手扶著琴頸按弦,右手拉著弓橫過琴弦——聲音是「拉」出來的,不是敲、也不是吹。這個畫面比較像整個字。
