：Statement：

“アース” (Āsu) in Japanese refers to the earth wire in an electrical circuit—

 a channel that carries excess or dangerous current safely into the ground.

 In everyday usage, Āsu has also come to describe the instant when an appliance short-circuits or leaks electricity.

In Taiwan, when something like that happens, we instinctively shout “Āsu”

 A sound like the spark that leaps out when wires touch,

 and also the brief cry the body releases in a moment of shock.

Sometimes, when encountering something unexpectedly brilliant,

 or when a stubborn thought suddenly becomes clear,

 it feels like a current slipping out of its original circuit—

 entering the body through a tiny point of contact,

 rushing downward, scattering wildly to the feet,

 and in an instant, grounding itself into the earth.

“Āsu” happens in that split second

 when a feeling arrives

 and language has not yet caught up.
