同義詞
  • bowl

    can mean the container or its contents; less exact if you want to stress the amount

文法句型

a bowlful of + [food/liquid]

用法筆記

Usually followed by 'of' plus the food or liquid inside the bowl. It names the amount, not the container itself, so 'a bowl' can refer more directly to the dish.
