爱时髦的clotheshorse 有人说“女人的衣橱是永远塞不满的。 ”买了上装、还要配个下装,去年的春装,今年怎么也不想穿,只得买新的。 所以,我们都是一个个clotheshorse。 A clotheshorse originally refers to a frame upon which clothes are hung after washing to enable them to dry. Now it refers to someone who is concerned about fashion and likes to collect a lot of clothes. Clotheshorse原本指用来晾晒衣服的晾衣架;遥多喻指爱时髦,喜欢买很多衣服的人,可译为“活衣架”。 For example: My mother is a true clotheshorse. She has a huge, walk-in closet and it is completely filled with clothes. She loves to buy clothes. 我妈妈是个十足的“活衣架”。 她有个很大的、可以直接走进去的衣橱,里面放满了衣服。 她很喜欢买衣服。
