   “青年节”、“青年人”英语怎么说?


  “青年”都和“youth”这个词有关:
  Youth Day: 青年节
  Youth: 青年
  Young people: 年轻人
  和中文一样young people比youth更加口语化。
  在美国还有一个词更常用来形容现在的年轻人:
  Millennials: 千禧一代,特指80年代至2000年出生的人。
  Millennials在美国常常为人诟病,就像80后、90后在中国的境遇差不多。
  That's how the cookie crumbles 2: 这就是世界的规律啊。
  How the cookie crumbles: 曲奇就是会碎,世界就是如此。
  Best description of millennials
  千禧一代的特色

  Savvy: 懂行的人
  They are digital natives. 他们是数字时代的原住民。
  They live their lives through technology. 生来与科技为伴。
  2.Progressive: 积极上进
  政治层面来说一般的政治态度分为两种:
  Liberal: 自由主义的
  Conservative: 保守的
  Progressive比较偏向Liberal,积极要求自己的权利权益
  3.Nomadic 5: 游牧的(四海为家)
  这个词的词根是Nomad 4: 游牧民
  特指这一代四海为家
  They are digital nomads 6: 他们是数字时代的游牧民。
  这也是好事啊,毕竟:
  A rolling stone gathers no moss 7: 滚石不生苔
  4.Impatient: 没耐心/Flaky: 不靠谱
  千禧一代也未免为人诟病,最常见的就是没耐心和不靠谱。
  He has the attention span of a goldfish. 他的注意力和金鱼一样(短)。
  5.Pragmatic idealists: 实际的理想主义者
  Pragmatic: 实际的
  Idealist: 理想主义者
  They are idealists. Meanwhile, they are also pragmatic. 他们是理想主义者,同时他们又容易与现实妥协。
  最能代表年轻人的两样东西
  说到千禧一代,大家认为有两样东西特别能代表他们:
  Instagram: 图片社交媒体
  Facebook和Twitter的使用者相对年龄大一点,而Instagram则更偏年轻化。
  Avocado: 牛油果
  牛油果真的挺好吃又有营养,可以做成很多东西:
  Avocado toast: 牛油果吐司
  Avocado smoothie: 牛油果奶昔
  年轻人的特色英语
  每个国家的年轻人多少都有自己的特色语言,美国也一样。
  Millennial 1 terms: 年轻人用的特色英语

  Salty的意思是你的情绪不佳,整个人都很丧。年轻人都挺喜欢用,因为这个词比较中性温和,没有攻击性。
