   2017年末牛津词典选出了年度新词。这些词18年持续火热。其中就有“人设崩塌”。怎么说呢?听节目、看推送吧!


  语言是“活”的,不断有词“死去”,有不断有词“新生”,所以每年牛津词典都会选出年度新词,
  Oxford 1 word of the year 2017
  赶快让我们来刷新自己的词表吧。
  #1.Youthquake
  什么意思:
  Youthquake: 青年地震、青年震荡
  "Youth" + "earthquake": 青年+地震
  牛津词典解释:
  A significant cultural, political, or social change arising from the actions or influence of young people. 年轻人的行动及影响力带来重要的文化、政治、社会变革。
  The word was coined in the 1960s by then-Vogue editor, Diana Vreeland, to describe upheavals 2 in fashion and music caused by Britain's youth culture. 这个词最早是上世纪60年代由当时的Vogue杂志编辑Diana Vreeland,用来描述英国青年文化在时尚和音乐界带来的巨变。
  Its use increased significantly in 2017. 虽然不算是个新词,但是2017年它又“红”了,使用广泛。
  #2.Genderquake
  什么意思:
  Genderquake: 性别震荡;
  Disregard for gender 3 norms: 忽略性别
  这个词的出现是由于在北美目前性别自由概念很“政治正确”:
  Gender fluidity: 性别流动
  #3.Broflake
  什么意思:
  Broflake: 保守玻璃心男
  A man who is readily upset or offended by progressive attitudes that conflict with his more conventional or conservative views. 一个非常容易因为一些新的进步观点与他的传统观点不相符而生气、被冒犯的男人。
  这个词和以前的一个热词有关:

  Newsjacking: 劫持新闻、热点事件营销

  人设崩塌 和其它新词热词英语怎么说?
  #5.Slefiegenic
  什么意思:
