<< review queue entry 75144 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> As I see it, the current def has two senses: 1) temperament; personality traits 2) manners I would retain the first sense as "personality traits; temperament; disposition; nature" LA's def is 指人在生理、心理素質上較穩定的個性特徵。如活潑好動、沉靜寡言、熱情好客、內向孤僻等。 But I would replace the 2nd sense with "refinement; sophistication; class" Here are some examples the 2nd sense: 休閒也只會吃吃喝喝，很沒氣質。 It was really pretty crass. 台灣人多的是什麼？缺的又是什麼？很多人會答，多的是鈔票，少的是氣質。 What is it Taiwanese have the most of? What do they lack? Many people might say that Taiwanese have lots of cash, but lack class. 其實我的音樂班生涯是在很懵懂的情況下開始的，我的父母都是生意人，對音樂既不懂也不特別重視，只是從小讓我去功學社的山葉兒童音樂教室「培養氣質」。 "Actually, my career in the music programs began a little inadvertently. My parents are both business people who don't really understand music or think it especially important. Nonetheless, I'd studied in a Yamaha children's program from an early age to make me 'more of a lady.' * * * I would also add a third sense, which may actually be the most common meaning: "aura; air; feel; vibe" It wasn't hard to find examples of that: - 他沒有書商的市儈氣，卻有一種萬事不經心非常可愛的氣質。 - 如果沒有真懂的匠人專家，最好先不要動手，因為一上新彩，整個廟宇的古樸氣質全沒了。 Wang Chen-hua holds that unless the craftsmen really understand what they are doing, it's better to do nothing, because once new paint is applied the temple's old aura is lost. - 希臘之後，羅馬、基督教、拜占庭，紛紛建立象牙買賣中心、象牙製作坊。接著文藝復興、巴洛克，直到本世紀初，「布魯賽爾和巴黎的新藝術風格興起，象牙結合珠寶金屬，呈現出奇特的矯飾氣質……」 Following the Greeks, the Romans, the Christians and the Byzantines each established ivory trading and manufacturing centers. Western ivory carving came in all shapes and kinds through the Renaissance and the Baroque. It even carried down to the beginning of this century, of which it is written in the Encyclopedia Americana that a new fashion arose in Paris and Brussels, that of using ivory together with precious metal and jewels. It goes on to say that the style has an especially affected air. . . . - 也有廣播業者直言，台北三家收聽率較高的新電台，如台北之音、飛碟，和台北愛樂，很少用舊電台出來的主持人。因為資深廣播人的風格，和新電台的「整體企劃、氣質不合」。 Some radio people mince no words in noting that three of the bigger new stations in the Taipei area-VOT, PRT, and UFO-rarely use hosts who have worked at old stations. This is because the senior broadcaster style "doesn't fit in with the overall plan and atmosphere at the new stations." - 張震嶽的搖滾風格則被形容為「不同於英美搖滾，具有本地特有色彩的青春頹廢氣質。」 Chang Chen-yueh's musical style has been described as "Different from US or UK rock, having a kind of Taiwan 'beat' youth feel." - 還把中山先生敦厚中帶著些許憂鬱的哲學家氣質點了出來，讓人忍不住要盯著瞧上老半天。 - 放眼所見，時下男模特兒也由肌肉男、酷哥轉型為帶有陰柔氣質的生嫩學生、 Looking around, you can see a transition in the most popular types of male models. The muscle man and the James Dean type are on the way out. More and more the models are of the soft, almost feminine schoolboy type, - 在快板歌曲裡散發清新氣質， Her fast songs have a fresh style, - 如F4選角時，她就認為演技是其次，重要的是明星氣質。 For instance, in selecting actors for F4, she felt that acting skill was subordinate to star-like charisma and presence. - 偶像的氣質與成長環境有關， the aura of these performers has something to do with the environment that they grew up in, |
