- 1習慣性的小動作、說話習慣
A mannerism is a little habit in the way a particular person speaks or moves — something they do again and again without really thinking, until other people start to notice it. Someone who always tucks their hair behind one ear, or who ends every sentence with “right?”, has a mannerism.
A mannerismMannerism is a little habit in the way a particular person speaks or moves是指一個人說話或動作時的一個小習慣 — something they do again and again without really thinking他們一再重複做、其實沒有特別想到, until other people start to notice it直到別人開始注意到為止。Someone who always tucks their hair behind one ear總是把頭髮塞到耳後的人, or who ends every sentence with "right?"或是每句話結尾都加『right?』的人, has a mannerism就有一個mannerism。
The word is fairly calm and a bit school-teacherly. A mannerism can be sweet, or it can start to you; the word itself does not decide.
The word is fairly calm and a bit school-teacherly這個字聽起來相當平和，還帶一點老師講課的味道。A mannerism can be sweet一個mannerism可以是可愛的, or it can start to annoy you也可能開始讓你覺得煩; the word itself does not decide這個字本身不決定是哪一種。
It is lighter than a medical tic, and a little less neutral than habit: there is often a hint of “that’s so them.” Though actually, this is not manners (being polite), and it is not “in a manner of speaking.” A person can have beautiful manners and still have a mannerism that makes you smile.
It is lighter than a medical tic它比醫學上的tic（抽動）更輕微, and a little less neutral than habit也比habit（習慣）少一點中性：there is often a hint of "that's so them"常常帶著一點『這就是他們的樣子』的味道。Though actually不過其實, this is not manners (being polite)這不是manners（禮貌）, and it is not "in a manner of speaking"也不是『in a manner of speaking』（打個比方）。A person can have beautiful manners一個人可以很有禮貌 and still have a mannerism that makes you smile卻同時有一個讓你會心一笑的mannerism。
In art class you may also meet Mannerism with a capital M, an old painting style; that is a different word in the same spelling, and not this sense.
In art class在美術課上, you may also meet Mannerism with a capital M你也可能遇到大寫M開頭的Mannerism, an old painting style是一種古老的繪畫風格; that is a different word in the same spelling那是拼法相同的另一個字, and not this sense不是這裡講的意思。
