I know in the past few episodes in this segment, we were talking about pretty serious stuff. So I thought in this buzzword we’ll opt for something that's a lot more light-hearted and fun and very much related to social media. 今天的Buzzword里面说的这个词就跟社交媒体超级相关. 最近不是大家都在说 TikTok 吗？在TikTok里面你也可以经常的看到这个词, 它已经成为网络梗 meme这样的一个存在. Let's first of all, look at the definition. Cringe now usually means when someone acts/ or is so embarrassing or awkward, it makes you feel extremely ashamed and/or embarrassed. 这个词的意思就是说, 当你看到别人做出那种很让人觉得尴尬或者别扭的举动的时候, 你自己都会觉得尬抽或者说尬到脚趾抠地抠出三室一厅这样的一种感觉. 因此 Cringe就真是完全对应了咱们中文网上说的 “尬到了” “尬抽了” 这个感觉. This word Cringe came from Old English, the word Cringan originally meant to fall, to yield in battled, 本来还有 “投降”的意思. Now Cringan then became Cringe sometime in the 16th century when it introduced the feelings of fear and embarrassment. 到了16世纪它就开始有了恐惧和尴尬的意思. Finally, by the 19th century, the meaning had cemented itself; cringe meant to “recoil in embarrassment, shame, or fear.”到了19世纪它就变成了 “尴尬”或者 “羞耻到扭曲”这样的一个感觉.
