喜樂美語
  1. 1nB2/ˈlaɪfstaɪl/生活方式

    The way a person or group lives — where they live, what they own, the work they do, and the things they like to do.

    示範例句 · Example

    Regular exercise is part of a healthy lifestyle.

    逐字規律運動是健康生活方式的一部分。

    「lifestyle」講的是一個人整體的生活樣子——住哪裡、做什麼工作、平常喜歡做什麼，全部加起來的「過日子的方式」。常跟形容詞搭配，像 healthy lifestyle（健康生活）、busy lifestyle（忙碌生活）。它比 life 更具體：life 是「人生」，lifestyle 是「你怎麼過這段人生」。

    常見搭配

    • a healthy lifestyle

      健康的生活方式

      a way of living that keeps you well

      Eating vegetables is part of a healthy lifestyle.

    • a busy/hectic lifestyle

    • change your lifestyle

      改變生活方式

      to start living in a different way

      to live without many possessions or luxuries

core核心畫面

Picture standing back and looking at someone's whole life from the outside, the way you'd look at a photograph of a house: the neighbourhood they live in, the things in their rooms, the job they leave for each morning, what they do on a free Saturday. Put all of that together and you see a shape — a pattern of living that is recognisably theirs. That whole visible pattern is a lifestyle.

可以想成：把一個人的日子從外面整個看一遍——住在哪一區、家裡擺著什麼、每天出門去做什麼工作、放假時願意把時間花在哪裡。這些湊起來會浮出一個「樣子」，那個樣子就是 lifestyle。字面上就是 life（生活）＋ style（樣式），重點不在他心裡想什麼，而在他的日子實際長成什麼形狀。所以英文常說 a healthy lifestyle、a busy lifestyle、change your lifestyle，講的都是整套過日子的方式，而不是單一一件事。
