| how to understand the verb "hand" in this phrase? Is "hand" a typo? more likely to be "hang from" Explanation: The phrase "hand from the wrist" doesn't seem to be logical. 其实你原文的 最后一句已经给出了答案，豹形手镯不象传统手镯那样紧箍手腕，因此而说明豹形手镯的流动性及适合各种腕型的 人佩戴。 和fitting closely/remaining immovable 相反的词 即是 “HANG from". |

| Reference Reference information: 看到网上的介绍，手镯的设计使得这个豹子的全身可以根据佩戴人的腕形来贴合，非常流动，不僵硬，整个豹身就像是伸展着趴（或者依偎环绕）在手腕上，懒洋洋的很有美感。其他文章里用到的词是drape, lounge。有一些怀疑这个hand是否是hang的误写。 Reference: http://diamondsinthelibrary.com/the-duchess-of-windsors-cart... |
