生命那么丰富无常,我们体会着不同的喜悦,也感受着不同的悲伤。


与恋人分手,与朋友失去联系,甚至家人离去......


世间的悲伤大抵相似,却又因人因事而不相同。


今天,英大就来与你分享10种不同的悲伤。



1Heartworm



释义:那段关系明明都结束了,你却仍然感觉它在继续


a relationship or friendship that you can't get out of your head, which you thought had faded long ago but is still somehow alive and unfinished.

某段感情或友情让你根本忘不掉,虽然你本以为它早就消逝了,但它其实尚未告终。




2Gnasche



释义:爱到入骨的悲哀

释义:爱到入骨的悲哀


the intense desire to bite deeply into the forearm of someone you love.

很爱很爱一个人,爱到想要在他的胳膊上留下齿印。




3Lethobenthos


释义:忘记某人有多重要而感到沮丧与无措


the habit of forgetting how important someone is to you until you see them again in person.

你已经忘记了某个人有多重要,直到你突然在某处碰到了他以前的某种小习惯,往事历历在目。




4Flashover



释义:顷刻冒出的信任火花,打破你坚硬的外壳


the moment a conversation becomes real and alive, which occurs when a spark of trust shorts out the delicate circuits you keep insulated under layers of irony, momentarily grounding the static emotional charge you've built up through decades of friction with the world.

在这个世界摸爬滚打、四处碰壁那么久之后,你早已将最真实的情感包裹在那层层的冷漠与嘲讽之中了。偶然一次真诚的交谈,都能让你在短暂的一瞬间产生了想要去信任的冲动。




5Ambedo



释义:一种忧郁的出神


释义:一种忧郁的出

a kind of melancholic trance in which you become completely absorbed in vivid sensory details-raindrops skittering down a window, tall trees leaning in the wind, clouds of cream swirling in your coffee.

当你完全沉浸在某种生动的感官细节中,比如滴滴答答下的雨敲打着窗户,树木在风中摇曳,云彩般的奶油在咖啡杯里打转,你就进入这种状态了。




6Anemoia



释义:对一个你从未经历过的时代的怀旧


Looking at old photos, it's hard not to feel a kind of wanderlust—a pang of nostalgia for times you've never experienced.

看着一些旧照片,你总会觉得自己在那些从未经历过的时代里漫游过。


The desire to wade into the blurred-edge sepia haze that hangs in the air between people who leer stoically into this dusty and dangerous future, whose battered shoes are anchors locked fast in the fantasy that none of it risks turning out any other way but the way it happened.

你渴望走进那些边缘模糊且感觉弥漫着褐色雾气的照片里,看看里面的人望向未来时坚毅的眼神,看看他们穿着破鞋走向新时代的幻想——他们曾有过种种关于风险的设想,却迎来了这个唯一而确定的现实。




7Vemödalenn



释义:由于重复他人的轨迹而感到沮丧


释义:由于重复他人的轨迹而感到沮

the frustration of photographing something amazing when thousands of identical photos already exist.

当你拍了一张很美的照片,却发现其实成千上万张差不多一样的照片已经在了,此时你会感到沮丧。


the same sunset, the same waterfall, the same curve of a hip, the same closeup of an eye.

同样的日落,同样的瀑布,同样的臀部曲线,同样的眼部特写……


which can turn a unique subject into something hollow and pulpy and cheap, like a mass-produced piece of furniture you happen to have assembled yourself.
这让一个独特的物体变得空洞、稀烂又廉价,就像一件由你自己组装却批量生产的家具。




8Avenoir



释义:渴望记忆能够往身后流走 


释义:渴望记忆能够往身后

We take it for granted that life moves forward.

我们觉得生活向前迈进是理所当然的。


But you move as a rower moves, facing backwards—you can see where you've been, but not where you're going. And your boat is steered by a younger version of you.

但事实上你其实就像一个倒划的桨手,面朝过去,背朝未来。你知道自己去过哪里,却不知道将要到哪去。


It's hard not to wonder what life would be like facing the other way…
人生的船总是被后方那个更年轻的你控制着,但每个人都希望知道换个方向过人生会怎么样。




9Deep Cut



释义: 遗忘多年的情绪卷土重来的感觉


释义:遗忘多年的情绪卷土重来的感

an emotion you haven't felt in years that you might have forgotten about completely if your emotional playlist hadn't been left on shuffle

一种你好几年都没有的情绪,如果删掉你的抒情歌播放列表,你可能老早就忘了这种感觉了


—a feeling whose opening riff tugs on all your other neurons like a dog on a leash waiting for you to open the door.

——但当前奏响起,触动你所有的神经,你的思绪就立即决堤。




10



释义:意识到快乐的那一刻,就是它开始消逝的时候


这个词来自埃及。


当你意识到自己很快乐,你会试着去分析它,你的大脑开始识别这种感受是为什么,并将它放到事情发生的背景里去解析,然后快乐会慢慢被溶解,最终变成一种余味。



世界很大,悲伤很多,但快乐更多!
