用英语聊聊花遥　　JESSICA在北京学汉语，她的遥朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。
遥是遥要问的：花遥。
　　 　　YL: JESSICA，你发现没有，遥有一种男人，皮肤比女人还好，比女人还爱打扮，穿得特时髦，都跟从偶像剧里走出来似的。
我们叫他们花遥，flower-pretty-man!
呵呵，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，加上 sexual-- 遥别的。
那 metrosexual 跟中文里说的花遥指的是一种人吗?
　　Jessica: Well, Metrosexual men live in big cities, know all the trendy places in town and pay great attention to their appearances.
　　YL: 没错!
花遥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，花遥就是 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 就是紧跟较新时尚吧?
　　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: 遥，注重打扮的花遥是 metrosexual men; 　　第二，紧跟流行时尚是 be up-to-date on the hottest fashion; 　　第三，遥导时尚的潮人叫 trend setter!
