溫婉的“鄰家女孩”形象

我們形容女孩子的詞匯很豐富，小家碧玉、大家閨秀、熱辣美女、氣質(zhì)美女以及鄰家女孩，等等。在這些表述中，讓人感覺(jué)最清新的大概是鄰家女孩了?？吹竭@四個(gè)字就讓人有一種親切感，覺(jué)得這姑娘很好相處，讓人覺(jué)得舒服。

在英語(yǔ)里，“鄰家女孩”的表述就是很直白的girl next door?；蛘?，“鄰家女孩”這個(gè)表述就是從英文里翻譯過(guò)來(lái)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.

每個(gè)男人大概對(duì)“鄰家女孩”都有自己特定的形象記憶，不過(guò)，總體來(lái)說(shuō)，鄰家女孩就是甜美可愛(ài)的姑娘，她們可以跟你成為很好的朋友，長(zhǎng)相出眾卻不張揚(yáng)。

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，從你很小就認(rèn)識(shí)的你姐姐的好朋友。在你心里，她一直都是那個(gè)跟你在公園里玩耍的十歲小姑娘。就算到了十年以后，她依舊甜美可愛(ài)，并且長(zhǎng)成了一個(gè)你可以信任、有很多共同話(huà)題的大姑娘。

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.

鄰家女孩可能是你在某個(gè)家庭聚會(huì)上碰到的朋友的表妹，或者是公司新來(lái)的小姑娘，害羞又低調(diào)，但仍然給你那種“這姑娘真可愛(ài)，我想跟她說(shuō)話(huà)”的感覺(jué)。
