Frolicking

“Frolicking” 指轻快、无忧无虑地玩耍,多用于儿童、宠物或在草地、海边撒欢,如 dogs frolicking in the park(狗在公园里撒欢)。语气温馨、画面感强。

  1. “Children were frolicking in the waves at the edge of the beach.” (孩子们在海滩边浪花里嬉戏。)
  2. “Lambs frolicking in the meadow made the hikers stop to watch.” (草地上蹦跳的小羊让徒步者驻足观看。)
  3. “The puppies spent the afternoon frolicking in the backyard.” (小狗们整个下午在后院疯玩。)

“Frolic” 可能源自荷兰语 vrolijk(快乐),经德语方言进入英语,始终保留“欢快嬉戏”义。

“-ing” 表示正在嬉戏的状态;词干 “frolic” 可作名词或动词,无额外前缀。

在童书、自然纪录片与节日报道中常见,营造无忧无虑的氛围;略偏文学或温情,口语中也可用 playing around 替代。

  • 固定搭配: “frolicking in the snow” (在雪地里嬉闹), “frolicking lambs” (蹦跳的小羊)
  • 原形: frolic
  • 名词: frolic

frolic 听起来欢快——frolicking 就是正在蹦蹦跳跳、尽情玩耍。

“While tourists were frolicking by the fountain, a street musician played a tune that made everyone dance.” (游客在喷泉边嬉戏时,街头乐手奏起一曲,众人都跳了起来。)
