Clumsy 笨拙
A clumsy person moves or handles things in a way that leads to small slips, bumps, or drops.
Clumsy behaviour shows in simple actions: shaky hands, late steps, or tools held too tight or too loose.
In daily tasks, a clumsy style may spill water, knock a cup, or press the wrong button when the space is narrow.
Clumsy moments rise with rush, low light, or tired eyes, and they fall with slow pace and clear space.
Clumsy people often use small fixes, like two hands for a glass, rubber grips on pens, and a tray for fragile items.
Clumsy does not mean careless; it means the body needs more time, room, or support to keep moves steady.
一个笨拙的人在移动或拿取物品时，容易出现小失手、碰撞或掉落。
笨拙的表现常见于简单动作：手有点发抖、迈步慢半拍，或握工具过紧或过松。
在日常任务中，笨拙的方式可能会打翻水、碰倒杯子，或在空间狭小时按错按钮。
在匆忙、光线不足或眼睛疲劳时，笨拙更容易出现；放慢节奏、清理空间会减少这些情况。
笨拙的人会采用小技巧，例如双手端杯、在笔上加防滑套、用托盘搬易碎物。
“笨拙”不等于“不在意”；它更多说明身体需要更多时间、空间或支撑，才能把动作保持稳定。
