A quizzical look is the face you make when you do not quite get what someone means, and a little smile sits in it at the same time. It is not anger, and it is not a big laugh. It is more like, “Wait… what?” — puzzled, and finding it slightly funny.

A quizzical look quizzical的表情 is the face you make是你露出的臉 when you do not quite get what someone means當你不太懂對方的意思時, and而 a little smile一點點笑意 sits in it at the same time同時也在裡面。It它 is not anger不是生氣, and而 it它 is not a big laugh也不是大笑。It它 is more like更像是, “Wait… what?”「等等⋯⋯什麼？」 — puzzled, and finding it slightly funny困惑，又覺得有點好笑。

You use it about a look, a smile, an eyebrow, an expression, not about a long speech.

You你 use it about a look, a smile, an eyebrow, an expression用在一個眼神、一個笑容、一道眉毛、一個表情上, not about a long speech而不是用在一大段話上。

Though actually, it is a slightly bookish word. In everyday talk people often just say “a puzzled look” or “she looked at me like I was joking.” Quizzical keeps that special mix: I do not understand, and this is a bit amusing. It is kindly, not cruel; a quizzical look teases a little, but it does not try to hurt.

Though actually不過其實, it它 is a slightly bookish word是一個有點書卷氣的字。In everyday talk在日常對話裡 people人們 often just say常常只會說 “a puzzled look” or “she looked at me like I was joking.”「一個困惑的表情」或「她看我的樣子好像我在開玩笑」。Quizzical quizzical keeps that special mix保留了那種特別的組合: I do not understand, and this is a bit amusing我不懂，而且這有點好笑。It它 is kindly, not cruel是善意的，不是殘忍的; a quizzical look一個quizzical的表情 teases a little會小小捉弄一下, but但不會 it does not try to hurt真的想傷人。
