Jostle一詞可以有不同的含義，主要包括：擠、推、爭斗、競爭、接觸等。

詞源來自于古英語的“justen”，意為“擠壓、對抗”。記憶詞義可以想象一個人擠進人群中，用肘部輕推、碰撞周圍的人，爭奪更好的位置。

幾個例句：

1. 人群中的人們不斷擠壓和推推搡搡，爭奪領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人的注意力。
   People in the crowd kept jostling and shoving, vying for the leader’s attention.

2. 在學(xué)校里，女孩們經(jīng)常競爭誰能在懸掛鏡子的角落里排名第一。
   In school, the girls often jostled for who could be ranked first in the corner where the mirror hung.

3. 立法者們在辯論中不斷接觸邊緣話題，試圖得到競選優(yōu)勢。
   The legislators kept jostling with peripheral issues in their debate, trying to gain an advantage in the election.

一首英文詩：
Jostling through the crowded street,
Our elbows touch, our shoulders meet,
We hurry on, in search of pace,
In this lively, bustling space.

A smile, a nod, a friendly jostle,
We welcome all in this lively hustle,
Our paths cross, our footsteps blend,
In this rush that feels so grand.

A world of motion, of endless flow,
We’re always going, never slow,
Our lives are full, our hearts are light,
In this vibrant, jostling sight.

一個與Jostle很相似的單詞是hustle，兩者都可以表示“爭奪”、“接觸”、“忙碌”等含義。不同點在于，hustle有時還可以表示“欺騙”、“詐騙”等含義，而jostle則更多用于物理接觸和競爭的場合中。
