【新词新意】腰间赘肉 muffin-top.

刚刚更新 编辑: 浏览次数:468 移动端

  原来我们说过一个有关“腰间赘肉”的可爱英文表达,叫做love handles。后来,人们大概发现腰间那圈赘肉也挺像蛋糕顶部的,所以又有了今天这个说法muffin-top。

  A muffin-top is the phenomenon of overhanging fat when it spills over the waistline of pants or skirts in a manner that resembles the top of a muffin spilling over its paper casing. Muffin-tops are generally considered undesirable.

  Muffin-top指腰间被裤子或裙子腰线勒出来下垂的赘肉,看上去像玛芬蛋糕顶部溢出纸托的样子,由此得名。一般来说,没有人喜欢自己腰间有那一圈赘肉的。

  Muffin-top originated as Australian slang in mid-2003, but has since become popular in other English-speaking countries. It may have been first popularized by the Australian television show Kath & Kim.

  Muffin-top这个说法2003年作为俚语出现在澳大利亚,后来在各个英语国家均被接受。最开始将其普遍传播的应该是澳大利亚电视节目《凯斯和吉姆》。
