(中國一位有名的德國哲學教授建議"選英文留學去",舉例:德語有報紙用字,老師學生不懂ㄝ也查不出來意思....) 其實,英文也.....

英文也不簡單: " An investment we can get behind" 中文翻譯可能也不好懂:bidet (法文原意為「小馬」)免治馬桶/智慧馬桶/坐浴桶、下身盆或淨身盆;擁躉;Wirecutter。  原《紐約時報》部分文字 “If you had told me I’d be turning my toilet into a backside-washing fountain, I wouldn’t have believed it,” Doug Mahoney writes. “But after installing and using 13 bidets for Wirecutter, I now—like nearly everyone who can get past the uncontrollable giggles of those first few uses—count myself among the converted.” https://nyti.ms/4uQyExG:

An investment we can get behind


「如果有人告訴我,我會把馬桶變成一個臀部清洗噴泉,我肯定不會相信,」道格·馬奧尼寫道。 「但在為 Wirecutter 安裝並使用了 13 個智慧馬桶蓋之後,我現在——就像幾乎所有能克服最初幾次使用時忍不住大笑的人一樣——也成了它的擁躉。」https://nyti.ms/4uQyExG

The term wirecutter has two distinct meanings, depending on whether you are referring to a physical object or a popular media brand. [1]
1. The Physical Tool
A wirecutter (often referred to as wire cutters) is a hand tool designed specifically to cut through metal wires, cables, or fencing. [1, 2]
  • Design: It typically features two handles and a pair of sharp, angled blades that grip and cleanly slice through wire when the handles are squeezed. [1]
  • Usage: It is heavily used in electrical work, jewelry making, crafting, and general home repair. In ceramics or pottery, it is a thin wire stretched between two handles used to slice through large blocks of clay. [1, 2, 3]
2. The Media Brand
Wirecutter (formerly known as The Wirecutter) is a highly popular, American product recommendation and review website owned by The New York Times Company. [1]
  • Purpose: It aims to save consumers time and eliminate shopping stress by independently researching, testing, and reviewing thousands of products across various categories (e.g., electronics, home appliances, and outdoor gear). [1]
  • Affiliate Model: The site makes money by earning a commission when readers purchase the recommended items through links in their articles. [1]

----bidet

Bidet(中文常稱為坐浴桶下身盆淨身盆是一種安裝在馬桶旁邊、專門用來清洗私密部位的衛浴設備。它外觀類似矮馬桶或洗手台,使用者如廁後可跨坐在上面,利用噴出的水流清洗臀部與下半身,以保持個人衛生。 [1, 2, 3, 4]
Bidet 的起源與設計
Bidet 起源於 18 世紀的法國,法文原意為「小馬」。傳統的 Bidet 是獨立於馬桶之外的單獨設備,盆內設有水龍頭,使用者必須在一般馬桶上完廁所後,起身移動到 Bidet 旁「騎乘」並面向水龍頭來進行清洗。在歐洲(特別是義大利、法國、西班牙)以及部分南美國家,這項設備非常普及,甚至在某些地區曾是法律規定新建住宅必須安裝的標配。 [1]
雖然傳統的獨立式 Bidet 在現代家庭中逐漸減少,但它的概念衍生出了風靡全球的「免治馬桶」(英文同樣常被統稱為 Bidet)。 [1, 2]
免治馬桶座(Electronic Bidet)
隨著科技進步,現代人將坐浴桶的功能直接整合到馬桶上,發明了免治馬桶座。這種設備具備了洗淨功能,使用者無需起身換位,如廁後直接坐在原位即可啟動面板或遙控器,使用溫水噴霧清洗私密處,還包含暖座、烘乾和除臭等附加功能。 [1, 2, 3]
為什麼使用 Bidet?
相較於傳統使用衛生紙擦拭,水洗有以下優點:
  • 更衛生乾淨: 水流能溫和且徹底地清除殘留物。
  • 保護私密肌膚: 減少因過度摩擦或衛生紙粗糙而導致的皮膚不適。
  • 改善肛門健康: 溫水清洗能舒緩局部不適,在醫學上
