embarrassed is used especially to describe how sb feels, especially when they think everyone is looking at them, laughing at them or knows sth too personal about them. uncomfortable is often used to describe a situation in which people are unsure how to behave, especially because there is a subject that people do not want to mention but do not know how to avoid. awkward is often used to describe sb's personality or usual behaviour, not just their feelings on a particular occasion. however, in many cases any of these words can be used. * embarrassed 尤形容所有人注视着自己、嘲笑自己或了解自己隐私时的尴尬感觉。uncomfortable 常形容令人不知所措的场合,尤指面对不愿提及却又无法回避的话题。awkward 常形容个性或行为习惯,不限于特殊场合的感受。但在很多情况下这几个词都可以用◆he felt embarrassed / uncomfortable / awkward about being the centre of attention.成为众人注目的中心,他感到很不自在。◆an embarrassed / uncomfortable / awkward silence令人尴尬的沉默■ self-conscious nervous or embarrassed about your appearance or what other people think of you(因在意自己的外表或他人的看法)局促不安的,难为情的,不自然的◆he's always been self-conscious about being so short.他老是为自己身材矮小而觉得难为情。◆she was a shy, self-conscious girl.她是个胆小害羞的女孩。opp unselfconscious ⓘ if you are unselfconscious you are not worried about or not aware of what other people think of you. * unselfconscious 意为不在意别人看法的、不怯场的、大方自然的。▸ self-consciously adverb◆she was self-consciously aware of his stare.她意识到他在打量她,感到不自在。■ sheepish looking or feeling embarrassed because you have done sth silly or wrong(因做了傻事或错事)窘迫的,难为情的,不好意思的◆he came into the room looking distinctly sheepish.他走进房间,显得很是窘迫。◆mary gave a sheepish grin.玛丽难为情地咧嘴一笑。 embarrassedshy, ashamed or unable to relax, especially in a social situation(尤指在社交场合)窘迫的,尴尬的,难堪的◆she's embarrassed about her height.她因自己的身高感到困窘。◆he felt embarrassed at being the centre of attention.自己成为众人注目的中心,他感觉很尴尬。◆some women are too embarrassed to consult their doctor about the problem.有些女性太害羞,不愿就这个问题向医生咨询。◆her remark was followed by an embarrassed silence.她的话讲完后,接下来便是难堪的沉默。embarrassed/ɪmˈbærəst ||; ɪmˈbærəst/adj feeling uncomfortable or shy because of sth silly you have done, because people are looking at you, etc 觉得局促不安或尴尬: ◇i felt so embarrassed when i dropped my glass. 我打破了酒杯,觉得很不好意思。 ☞ embarrassed/embarrassing em·bar·rassed /ɪm`bærəst; ɪmˈbærəst/adjfeeling ashamed, stupid, or uncomfortable, especially when other people are watching or listening 尴尬的,受窘的:◇everyone was staring at me and i felt really embarrassed. 大家都盯着我看,我感到十分尴尬。 ☞ embarrassed |
