artsy

Published by under Word by Word

Miley Cyrus 的“露背照”风波,她为自己的辩护是觉得 Vanity Fair 的 Annie Leibovitz 把她拍得“好看自然” (pretty and natural),并且“很有艺术感”(really artsy)。

Artsy 是 arty 的变种,而 arty 已经是很口语化的说法,可谓是 teen talk。《卫报》上 Germaine Greer 尖刻地说

If by this she meant artistic, rather than artsy-fartsy, she was right on the money.

artistic 是褒意,artsy-fartsy 则完全是贬意了,比“附庸风雅”还不如。
