含義
The eye color that the culture seems to have something against. Everyone who has brown eyes wants to wear contacts to have blue eyes, as if they believe that brown eyes are the color of ugliness.
眼睛的顏色似乎有一些關於文化歧視的含義。褐色眼睛的人往往會選擇佩戴藍色的美瞳,因為他們堅信棕色是醜陋的顏色。

A beautiful eye color that looks good on all shades of skin and is found all over the world, but even its lack of rareness can't take away its beauty.

As the Night's, looking down

On waters that sleep
沉睡在水中
With the moon in their deep" . . .

俚語是相當特殊的語言形式,它既有別於語法規範的用語,又不同於鄉下語,更不是褻瀆語言。儘管傳統的觀念認為俚語與正式場合下使用“體面”標準方言形式相去甚遠,但在日常生活中卻被很多人使用,現代美國俚語得到了很好的發展。
