今天我们来学习一下英文中Zen的用法,这个词其实跟“禅;禅宗”有关;
在口语中小写z的zen可以当做是形容词去理解,看下对应的英文解释:
relaxed and not worrying about things that you can not change
“心态很放松的,对于改变不了的事情毫不担心、毫不忧虑的”;
eg: There's nothing you can do to change the situation so you just have to be a bit more zen about it.
这个情况,你也无能为力,所以你只能佛系点。
eg: Don't worry about doing the right thing with your baby—be more zen about it and you'll be happier.
不要担心你是否为自己的孩子做了正确的选择——越放松/佛系你就会越高兴。
eg: I hate to use this word, but Owen is very zen.
我很讨厌用这个词,但是欧文确实就很佛系/就不太介意用这个词。
