(单词翻译:单击)

January feeling refers to an emotional state characterized by feelings of optimism and possibility, particularly at the start of a new year.
“一月心情”是指新年伊始之际,对一切抱持乐观态度,认为所有事都充满各种可能性的心理状态。
 
There's another sense of this expression that means almost the opposite: An emotional state characterized by feelings of melancholy1 and lethargy, particularly early in the year when the holidays are over and a long winter looms2. But this sense is quite old, dating to at least the mid3 1920s.
该词还有几乎相反的另一种用法:指人们处于忧郁悲伤、无精打采的心理状态,尤其当人们年初休完假,仍处于漫长冬季的时候。不过,这种用法较为陈旧,至少可追溯到十九世纪20年代中期。
