用法与细微差别
Informal and often used for describing someone briefly entering a room or looking in. Common collocations: 'poke your head in', 'poke in to see'. Can be literal (physically) or figurative (quickly appearing in a place or situation). Avoid confusing with 'poke' alone, which means 'to jab'. Rarely used for full body unless humorous.
