(单词翻译:单击)
与pet name类似的表达还有pet phrase,意为“口头禅”(catchword)。
另外,pet一词本身就有比较亲昵的意思——宝贝,即“(表示喜欢、友好的称呼)宝贝、乖乖”,英文解释是:Some people call the person they are talking to 'pet' to show affection or
friendliness1.
例句:
It's all right, pet, let me do it.
没事儿,宝贝儿,让我来吧。
当pet作动词时,则有“抚摸;(爱抚地)摩挲"的意思,即If you pet a person or animal, you touch them in an affectionate way.
例句:
The policeman reached down and petted the wolfhound.
警察伸手抚摸那只猎狼犬。
I petted and smoothed her hair.
我轻抚着捋平她的头发。
