"coddled" 是一個形容詞,主要包含兩層含義,通常帶有一定的負面或特定情境的色彩:
過度呵護的;嬌生慣養的 (Overprotected and Pampered):
He grew up a coddled child, never having to lift a finger at home.
(他從小嬌生慣養,在家裡從來不需要動手做任何事。)Critics argue that modern parenting styles produce coddled youth who are unprepared for the challenges of adulthood.
(批評者認為,現代育兒方式造就了嬌生慣養的年輕人,他們無法應對成年後的挑戰。)(雞蛋)用溫水慢煮的 (Cooked Gently in Water Below Boiling Point):
For breakfast, she served coddled eggs with buttered toast.
(早餐她提供了溫泉蛋配黃油吐司。)Coddled eggs require precise temperature control to achieve the perfect texture.
(溫泉蛋需要精确的溫度控制才能達到完美的質地。)詞源與關聯: "Coddled" 源自動詞 "coddle"。其詞源可能與古英語或方言詞彙有關,意指“溫柔地煮”或“溺愛”。其烹饪含義(溫和地煮)是其更早、更字面的意義,後來引申出比喻義(過度溫柔地對待人,即溺愛)。因此,無論是形容人還是雞蛋,"coddled" 都強調了“被極其溫和、小心地對待”這一核心概念,隻是對象和結果不同。
