对一切“差评”无感,自动屏蔽掉他人的“鄙视”,还能一往无前,英文如何形容那些“厚脸皮”?快来围观吧!

1、Thick-skinned:皮厚

Thick-skinned用在人身上,指“厚脸皮”,反之“脸皮薄”可以说thin-skinned。

例句:

a thick-skinned orange

厚皮的橙子

《柯林斯英语词典》的解释如下:

If you say that someone is thick-skinned, you mean that they are not easily upset by criticism or unpleasantness.

例句:

He was thick-skinned enough to cope with her taunts.

他脸皮厚,不怕她嘲弄。

You need a thick skin to be a politician.

当政客得脸皮厚。

Obama was asked about the most important skills to have as a world leader. He joked "having a thick skin" was pretty useful.

奥巴马也被问及作为美国总统最重要的技能是什么。他开玩笑说“有一张厚脸皮”非常有用。

2、Shameless :不知羞耻

Shameless由词根shame变化而来,shame本来是“羞愧,羞耻”的意思,比如Shame on you!(你真不知羞耻!) Shame加上表示“无”、“没有”的后缀-less就是“不知羞耻”的意思。

在《柯林斯英语词典》里,对shameless的英文解释如下:

If you describe someone as shameless, you mean that they should be ashamed of their behaviour, which is unacceptable to other people.

例句:

Did you see the shameless way she was chucking herself at him?

你看她涎皮赖脸地追求他了吗?

不过,有一句有关“脸皮厚”的名言还是很有道理的,只有shame就能表达到位:

Shame to the extreme, is fresh.

羞耻到极致,脸皮也就厚了。

还有一个很有意思的表达方式,low-down dirty shame。

It's really unbelievable that some man can even marry a low-down dirty shame like her.

有人竟然和像他那样不知羞耻的人结婚,真是不可思议。

3、Cheeky:厚颜无耻的、放肆

Cheeky用来形容人行为无礼,放肆,恬不知耻。

如果有人拿你开玩笑有点过了,你可以警告对方一句“Stop being so cheeky!”或者“I want no more of your cheek!”

在《柯林斯英语词典》里,对cheecky的英文解释如下:

If you describe a person or their behaviour as cheeky, you think that they are slightly rude or disrespectful but in a charming or amusing way.

例句:

You're getting far too cheeky!

你太放肆了!

He is the cheeky reporter!

他就是那个厚脸皮的记者!

4、Bold-faced:厚颜无耻的,行为够大胆,脸皮足够厚

bold一词本身就有“无所畏惧”的意思,如《柯林斯英语词典》的解释是:

Someone who is bold is not shy or embarrassed in the company of other people.

例句:

He is a bold-faced liar.

他是说谎眼都不眨,脸皮够厚。

5、Brazen:肆无忌惮的

Brazen除了意指“黄铜制的”、还可表示“肆无忌惮的”、“厚颜无耻的”。

在《柯林斯英语词典》里,对brazen的英文解释如下:

If you describe a person or their behaviour as brazen, you mean that they are very bold and do not care what other people think about them or their behaviour.

例句:

She had become brazen about the whole affair.

她对这场绯闻已经不感到羞耻了。
