教你“花美男”英语怎么说

　　YL: JESSICA，你发现没有，现在有一种男人，皮肤比女人还好，比女人还爱打扮，穿得特时髦，英语免费站，都跟从偶像剧里走出来似的。我们叫他们“花美男”，flower-pretty-man! 呵呵，免费英语站，我瞎翻的，美语中不会也有类似的称呼吧？

　　JESSICA: Actually, there IS an English equivalence. It's "metrosexual" m-e-t-r-o-s-e-x-u-a-l, metrosexual.

　　YL: metro-- "大城市"，免费学习英语的网站，加上 sexual-- "性别的"。那 metrosexual 跟中文里说的“花美男”指的是一种人吗？

　　YL: 没错! 花美男就是住在大城市里的时尚达人，特别注重外表和打扮！要这么说，花美男就是 metrosexual man!

　　JESSICA: I guess being a metrosexual man means you're doing your homework on the latest trends. You need to be up-to-date on the hottest fashion!

　　YL: up-to-date on the hottest fashion? fashion是时尚的`意思，up-to-date是跟上潮流，所以，up-to-date on the hottest fashion 就是“紧跟最新时尚”吧？

　　JESSICA: That's right! But Yanglin, I would say the real fashionable people are not those who follow the trends, but the trend setters!

　　YL: trend setters? t-r-e-n-d, trend 是趋势的意思，setter, s-e-t-t-e-r 是设定者，所以 trend setter 就是开创时尚的真正潮人!

　　JESSICA: 没错! Now let's see what you've learned today!

　　YL: 第一，注重打扮的“花美男”是 metrosexual men；

　　第二，紧跟流行时尚是 be up-to-date on the hottest fashion；
