喜樂美語
  1. 1nA2/rɪst/手腕

    the narrow part of your body where your hand joins your arm; it bends and turns, so your hand can move in many directions.

    示範例句 · Example

    Mei wears a small blue watch on her left wrist.

    逐字美在她的左手腕上戴一支藍色的小手錶。

    wrist 就是手掌和手臂中間那一小段會轉動的地方。英文把手分得很細：手掌那一整片是 hand，從手肘到手腕是 arm，中間連起來的那一圈才是 wrist。可以想成它就像門的合頁，手能翻、能轉，靠的都是這一小段。手錶、手環戴在這裡，英文說 on your wrist（在手腕「上」）。

core核心畫面

Picture the narrow place where your hand meets your arm — thin enough to close your fingers around, and built to bend and turn so the hand can point in almost any direction.

可以想成手掌跟手臂交接的那一小段細細的地方：細到你可以用另一隻手一把握住，而且它會彎、會轉，所以手掌才能指向幾乎任何方向。手錶戴的就是這裡。
