标题[请益] fluff 的意思
时间Thu Oct 12 09:33:44 2023
有个对话情境是一对离婚的人在吵架，
丈夫想在一个聚会场合介绍新伴侣，
妻子暴怒。
Ben: I've been seeing someone. Her name's Veronica.
I wanted to prepare everyone for the idea. To avoid any dramas.
Sam: So you're emotionally fluffing us? That's so typical of you.
Your ego is so inflated. You have to make a major event
out of everything!
请问 fluff 在对话中的意思要怎麽理解比较好呢？
根据字典，fluff 有以下的意思

1 informal to make a mistake or do something badly
2 to make something soft become larger by shaking it
3 if a bird fluffs its feathers, it raises them and makes itself look bigger
谢谢！
