   “正经”的正经说法


  严肃点儿!这儿说正经的呐!生活中,不仅有一板一眼的正经人时不时充当人生导师,也难免碰上一两个装腔作势的假正经。一本正经太无趣,假装正经也会招人厌。英文如何说“正经”这就为你奉上。
  1. Prim 1 and proper
  Prim意指“拘谨”、“古板”,而proper则表示“正当”、“正确”,这两个词放在一起常用来形容人行为举止一本正经,看到稍有不合规矩之处就会大惊失色。
  例:You can't tell her that joke—she's much too prim and proper.
  你可不能跟她说这个笑话,她那人特别正经。
  2. Po-faced
  这个词的确和face有关,它可以表示“面无表情的”,也能用来形容人假正经或者过分严肃。
  例:His role in these movies was considered a little bland 2 and po-faced.
  大家觉得他在这些电影里扮演的角色都有点儿无趣,一本正经。
  3. In deadly earnest
  Earnest本有真挚真诚之意,in deadly earnest更是强调这是非常认真严肃的。听到别人说这个短语,你就别再不正经了。
  例:You may laugh but I'm in deadly earnest.
  也许你会笑,但我绝对是认真的。
  4. Goody two-shoes
  此处与赞鞋好没有半点关系,它实际指的是那种认为自己平时表现特别得体,于是就自命清高的假正经。
  例:You didn't invite her to the party, did you? She's such a goody two-shoes.
  派对你没请她吧?她可是那种假正经。

adj.拘泥形式的,一本正经的;n.循规蹈矩,整洁;adv.循规蹈矩地,整洁地
  • She's too prim to enjoy rude jokes!她太古板,不喜欢听粗野的笑话!
  • He is prim and precise in manner.他的态度一本正经而严谨
adj.淡而无味的,温和的,无刺激性的
