有些人年齡不大,但很老成;有些人年紀(jì)不小,卻依然童稚未脫。估計我們身邊都會有這樣的人吧,心里一直不想長大,只要在可能的情況下,盡量讓自己過著看上去充滿童真的生活。
Kidult(a blend of kid and adult) refers to a so-called grown-up who doesn't want to grow up (or at least act like an adult) and would instead prefer so-called "children's" stuff for entertainment, like cartoons, toys, comic books, Disney movies, etc.
Kidult(kid和adult兩次的混合形式)指那些表面看上去已經(jīng)成年、但心里不想長大(或至少不想像大人那樣行為做事)的人,他們會更加傾向于選擇一些兒童類娛樂項目,如卡通、玩具、漫畫書以及迪斯尼電影等。
He or she also enjoys colorful "kiddie" snacks and dresses like a teenager or perhaps younger. They may or may not be great parents as well as being able to take on adult responsibilities, but not necessarily too immature at least in the public.
他們還喜歡那些多彩的兒童零食并且把自己打扮得像個中學(xué)生或者更年輕的樣子。他們可能是,也可能不是稱職的父母,能不能擔(dān)起成年人的責(zé)任也說不準(zhǔn)。不過,在公共場合,他們倒也不會表現(xiàn)得那么不成熟。
