我们形容女孩子的词汇很丰富,小家碧玉、大家闺秀、热辣美女、气质美女以及邻家女孩,等等。在这些表述中,让人感觉最清新的大概是邻家女孩了。看到这四个字就让人有一种亲切感,觉得这姑娘很好相处,让人觉得舒服。
在英语里,“邻家女孩”的表述就是很直白的girl next door。或者,“邻家女孩”这个表述就是从英文里翻译过来的?
Every guy may have his specific girl-next-door prototype, but in general, girl next door is cute and sweet, usually makes a really great friend, she may be very attractive, and is modest about it.
每个男人大概对“邻家女孩”都有自己特定的形象记忆,不过,总体来说,邻家女孩就是甜美可爱的姑娘,她们可以跟你成为很好的朋友,长相出众却不张扬。
Picture your sister's best friend from when you were kids. In your mind she'll always be that 10-year-old cutie who played with you in the park. Only, when you catch up with her 10 years later, she's still a cutie, but all grown up and had become someone you can trust and connect with on so many new levels.
比如,从你很小就认识的你姐姐的好朋友。在你心里,她一直都是那个跟你在公园里玩耍的十岁小姑娘。就算到了十年以后,她依旧甜美可爱,并且长成了一个你可以信任、有很多共同话题的大姑娘。
Similarly, she could be a friend's cousin whom you met at family occasions over the years. Or even a new employee at work who is shy and unassuming, but still gives you that "she seems so nice, I'd love to talk to her" feeling.
邻家女孩可能是你在某个家庭聚会上碰到的朋友的表妹,或者是公司新来的小姑娘,害羞又低调,但仍然给你那种“这姑娘真可爱,我想跟她说话”的感觉。
