“cute”的滥用已经失控了。如果你特别喜欢用这个词,这本诙谐幽默的书将帮助你改掉这个习惯。
先声明:作者Ethan Jenkins并不是要支持彻底根除“cute”这个词。他只是希望为读者提供一些同样可爱的选择。与Roget's Thesaurus(1851年以来的同义词权威)这本词典的格式略有不同,本书配有五颜六色的独角兽、彩虹和所有粉色东西的插图。如果有某个简短、有力和通用的词来形容这种特殊肚饿设计风格……也许是“winsome”或“darling”?“ Dainty”或“precious”?是时候打开这本实用的同义词词典了。
The reckless usage of "cute" has gotten out of control. If you're addicted to the C-word, this hilarious book will help to kick your habit.
Let's be clear: author Ethan Jenkins isn't campaigning for the total eradication of the word "cute." He just hopes to provide readers with some equally cute alternatives. In a slight deviation to the format of Roget's Thesaurus (the synonymic authority since 1851), this book is ablaze with illustrations of unicorns, rainbows, and anything pink. If only there was some short, punchy and universal word to describe this particular style of design... maybe winsome or darling? Dainty or precious? Time to open up this helpful thesaurus.
