英語學習資料：實用英語口語：“穿着暴露”英語怎麼說

　　WQ: Jessica, 明天我要去面試，得好好打扮打扮，你幫我參謀參謀?

　　Jessica：沒問題！Show me what you've got.

　　WQ: 你看這件連衣裙，我穿上挺漂亮的，不過，似乎有點太露了。對了，這個衣着暴露在美語裡要怎麼說呢？

　　Jessica: You can say this dress is showing too much skin.

　　WQ: Showing too much skin? 我明白了，就是露得太多。

　　Jessica: Exactly. You can also say someone is scantily clad. Scantily is spelt S-C-A-N-T-I-L-Y, 意思是少，不夠；clad is spelt C-L-A-D, 意思是穿衣服。

　　WQ: 哦！那把兩個詞放在一起就是穿得不夠，衣着暴露的意思喽！對了，Jessica, 如果說天冷的時候穿得太少太薄，是不是也可以用scantily clad 呢？

　　Jessica: Yes! For example, you can say girls who are scantily clad when they go out in the cold weather are at higher risk of getting sick.

　　WQ: 你是說，大冷天穿得特别少出門的女孩子更容易感冒。那當然！不過做女生就是這麼辛苦，為了漂亮隻能忍着。

　　Jessica: 其實也不用這麼辛苦。I know girls want to be pretty, but we don't have to be dressed to kill everyday. Right?

　　WQ: Dressed to kill? 要殺人?？

　　Jessica: No! "Dressed to kill" means wearing fancy or formal clothing. 比如說，I was dressed to kill for my interview.

　　WQ: 哦，我明白了！ Dressed to kill 就是着裝正式、搶眼。哎？你看這條西服裙行不行？It's not showing too much skin.

　　Jessica: I like this pencil skirt! It's perfect for the interview.

　　WQ: 原來西服裙叫pencil skirt - 像鉛筆一樣直直的裙子！好吧， Let me put on this pencil skirt and this shirt. 看看效果如何！

　　Jessica: (Pause) Hmm! WQ, now you're dressed to kill!

　　現在看看你今天都學了什麼吧！

　　WQ: 第一，形容衣着暴露，可以用scantily clad, 或者 show too much skin;

　　第二，穿得正式、搶眼，是dressed to kill;

　　第三，西服裙是pencil skirt!
