從 N1 到 N2 marks a range from one endpoint to another across space, time, number, or scope.
Range framing - two endpoints define interval/coverage
Flexible domains - distance, schedule, pages, temperatures, roles
Often with statistics or planning - concise boundary expression
See examples below for varied real-world usage.
Endpoints should share domain
- Place to place, time to time, number to number.
Keep ordering natural
- N1 usually precedes N2 in progression.
Do not force with unrelated nouns
- Range meaning must stay coherent.
