Canoodling

“Canoodling” 指情侣或亲密之人正在拥抱、依偎、轻声调情,语气轻松俏皮,略带幽默,如 canoodling on the park bench(在公园长椅上腻在一起)或 stop canoodling and pay attention(别腻歪了,专心点)。

  1. “They were canoodling in the corner booth at the café.” (他们在咖啡馆角落卡座里腻在一起。)
  2. “The movie couple kept canoodling while everyone else watched the credits.” (片尾字幕时那对银幕情侣还在搂搂抱抱。)
  3. “She laughed and told them to stop canoodling during the meeting.” (她笑着叫他们在开会时别腻歪了。)

“Canoodle” 为 19 世纪美国英语俚语,词源不确定,可能与 caress、cuddle 等词在音感上相近,强调亲昵依偎。

“-ing” 表示正在进行的亲昵动作;canoodle 本身为不及物动词,常接 with。

该词在报刊与口语中常带一点调侃意味,比 “making out” 更温和、更俏皮;Claude Code spinner 用 “canoodling” 制造轻松幽默的等待氛围。

  • 固定搭配: “canoodling with” (与……亲昵), “stop canoodling” (别腻歪了)
  • 原形: canoodle
  • 名词: canoodling(少见)
  • 相关: cuddle, snuggle

“canoodle 听起来像 cuddling 的俏皮版”——canoodling 就是正在打情骂俏、搂搂抱抱。

“Two teammates were canoodling with their laptops on the sofa while waiting for the CI pipeline to turn green.” (等 CI 变绿时,两个队友抱着笔记本窝在沙发上各自磨蹭。)
