"gawp"是動詞,指長時間目瞪口呆地注視,通常帶有缺乏禮貌或顯得愚蠢的含義。該詞源自16世紀英國北部的方言"galp"(張嘴),後演變為現代英語中描述笨拙凝視的行為。牛津詞典将其定義為"to stare at sb/sth in a rude or stupid way"(以粗魯或愚蠢的方式盯着某人/某物)[來源:Oxford Learner's Dictionaries]。
這個詞常見于英式英語語境,多用于非正式場合,如描述遊客在景點前瞠目結舌的圍觀狀态。BBC文化專欄曾用"tourists gawping at ancient monuments"(遊客呆望着古迹)來描述旅遊場景中的典型現象[來源:BBC Culture]。
在語義強度上,"gawp"比普通注視詞"gaze"更具負面色彩,接近"ogle"(色眯眯地看)但又不含情欲成分。柯林斯詞典特别指出其暗含"智力遲鈍的凝視"之意[來源:Collins Dictionary]。使用時需注意語境,如在正式寫作中建議替換為中性詞"stare"或"observe"。
