“秋裤”的英文真不是“autumn pants”!

冬天来了,又到了穿秋裤的季节!那么秋裤的地道英文应该怎么说呢?今天来学习一些“冷”的表达~

1

It's so cold I'm wearing two pairs of thermals.

太冷了,我穿了两条秋裤。

秋裤不是autumn pants,更不是chill cool,它正确的表达为thermal,全称:thermal underwear

秋裤还有一个另外的有趣表达:long johns

来历

一个叫John L. Sullivan的拳王

不仅以拳击风格闻名

还以一身连体服"Long John"而闻名

后来成为秋衣秋裤的代名词

例句:

It's cold outside. My Mom asks me to wear long johns.

天冷了,妈妈喊我穿秋裤。
