depth 是英语常用名词，音标为英 [depθ]/美 [depθ]，复数形式为 depths。其核心含义指物体从表面到底部的垂直距离，涵盖物理空间深度（如河流、容器）、情感深厚程度（如悲伤）、知识渊博性（如专业造诣）以及声音、颜色、危机等抽象概念的强度特征 [1-4]。固定短语"in depth"表示深入探究，"out of one's depth"描述能力或环境的超限状态 [1-2] [4]。
该词作为专业术语应用于光学（景深）、地质学（地层深度）、计算机图形学（色深）等领域 [1] [4]。在技术场景中，如Python编程表示递归深度，系统架构中描述颜色浓度，航空领域指代纵深距离。其复数形式depths可表示深渊或抽象概念的最强烈部分 [5]。
