Day 3 cute和hot這種美劇高頻詞應(yīng)該怎么用?
A: Hey,man,what do you think of Angelababy?
D: Um,she's cute.
A: Oh,how about Shu Qi?
D: Oh,man,she is so hot! She is my Goddess!
A: Wow! How about Yang Mi?
D: She is hot too! She is also my Goddess!
A: Shut up!
All right,聽完今天的對話之后,我們來看一下cute和hot有什么區(qū)別。So, Darby,what's the difference between“cute”and“hot”?
Well,when we want to describe the appearance of other adults,like Angelababy,if we say “cute”,it means we recognize that they're good-looking,but maybe we're not really really attracted to them.
But if we say “hot”,that means sexy,right? So it means maybe we really really are attracted to them. So it's a higher degree of attraction.
OK,我來給大家用中文解釋一下cute和hot的區(qū)別。在對話當(dāng)中大白覺得Angelababy is“cute”,說明她 good-looking,就是感官上的好看,但是他認(rèn)為舒淇是他的女神,因?yàn)樗X得she is“hot”,她很性感。
cute是“感官上的好看”,而hot指“很性感,更有吸引力,更有感覺”。不知道大家理解了嗎?
All right,it's bonus time! So for the bonus,we're gonna talk about the word“cute”.
When we use the word cute to describe adults,it's different than when we use the word cute to describe kids and animals. For adults,of course we mean “good-looking” For kids and animals,it doesn't necessarily mean good-looking;it means more adorable. For example,maybe we want to hold a cute baby or pet,a really cute kitten.

對于很多中國學(xué)生來說,cute都意為“可愛的”,但是我們在用cute形容成年人和小孩/小動物的時(shí)候,其實(shí)是有區(qū)別的。
cute在形容成年人的時(shí)候,表示good-looking,是“好看的”意思,但是在形容小朋友或者小動物的時(shí)候,則是“可愛的”意思。
