Bombastic

Bombastic 是一个贬义词。形容一个人说话或写文章使用大量高级词汇,听起来很有气势,但实际上没多少内容。

  1. I find his bombastic style of speaking quite annoying. (我觉得他夸夸其谈的说话方式很烦人。)
  2. The candidate’s bombastic promises failed to impress the voters. (候选人夸大的承诺未能打动选民。)
  3. He wrote a bombastic report full of jargon but lacking facts. (他写了一份辞藻华丽但缺乏事实的报告。)
  • 源自bombast (原指作为填充物的棉花)。

联想 bomb (炸弹)。Bombastic 的话就像炸弹爆炸一样,声音很大,但里面都是烟雾和碎片。

The bombastic general loved to talk about his heroic deeds, most of which were exaggerated. (那位夸夸其谈的将军喜欢谈论他的英雄事迹,其中大部分都是夸大的。)
