<< review queue entry 61436 - submitted by 'sl89' >> I find it usually used in video games and tabletop RPGs as planes (of existence, or alternate universes), maybe just an attempt of a direct translation of the English "plane". But I can also find 位面 in technical texts as a translation of both surface and plane. Math isn't my strong suit but I think surface and plane aren't the same thing, but the word 位面 has been used to translate both. Wikiepdia https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BD%8D%E9%9D%A2 百度百科 https://baike.baidu.com/item/%E4%BD%8D%E9%9D%A2/1351040 位面是什么意思? https://zhidao.baidu.com/question/272430963.html Geometry: 这种点的集合被称为等位面. The set of points is called a level surface. 表面本身是一等位面. The surface itself is an equipotential. 总计指示剂数（ir）-晶圆片表面位面间的最短距离。 Total Indicator Reading( TIR)- The smallest distance between planes on the surface of the wafer. 相当海平面的地球实际等位面称为重力平面. The actual equipotential surface of the earth that corresponds to sea level is called the geoid. 指定位图中的彩色位面数。 Specifies the number of color planes in the bitmap. Planes of existence: 所有真正的牧师已经离开了，被诸神召集去为其他位面服务。 All the true clerics had departed, gathered by the gods to serve on other planes. 我们体内是“存在的位面”，就是意识领域，那里完全漆黑一片。 Within us are planes of existence, areas of consciousness, which are in absolute darkness. 这些位面远比我们现在赖以生存的空间要美丽的多，也更富创造性。 These planes are much more beautiful and creative than the ones we live on now. 普遍承认，外层位面是因凡人的信仰而建立起来的，无论恶魔或是天界生物都是主位面死者的精魄。 See, it's also well established that the Outer Planes are constructed from the belief of mortals, and that fiends and celestials are the spirits of the Dead. -------------------------- Editor: Thanks. The traditional character is 面. 麵 is wheat flour. 等位面 is (等位)(面) rather than (等)(位面), so the 等位面 examples aren't relevant to an entry for 位面. |
