delicious 可口的
delicious 是最常见,也是最常听到形容食物「好吃、可口」的说法,因为它没什么特别的,我们就不多介绍了,给个例句就好吧!
My mom is known for her delicious meat pie. She said that the secret ingredient is “love”.
我妈妈以她的咸肉派而有名,她的秘方就是「爱」。
mouth-watering 令人垂涎的
嘴巴里出水啊?听起来好恶心,是打瞌睡流口水吗? mouth-watering 其实是指「令人垂涎的」,没有那么恐怖啦!就是要这样说才生动,对不对?
I’m thinking about having some mouth-watering meatballs from Ikea for dinner when we’re done with work. OMG! I feel so excited just thinking about it.
我在想我们工作结束后我要吃令人垂涎的 Ikea 的肉丸当晚餐。噢!光用想的我就好兴奋!
appetizing 令人食欲大开的
appetite 是食欲的意思, appetizing 指的就是「令人食欲大开」,能让我们胃口大开的食物想必一定很好吃,下次想形容东西好吃不妨多用这个单字!
Most people visit our eatery for our famous oyster omelette, but our noodles and fried rice are equally appetizing as well!
来我们小吃店里的人几乎都是来吃我们有名的吃蚵仔煎,但是我们的面和炒饭一样会令人胃口大开!
finger-licking 令人吮指回味的
相信大家都有这个经验的,用手吃完饼干之后,再吸一下沾满饼干调味粉的手指,甚至有一位台湾的 YouTuber ,为了感受最极致的快感,把好几包仙贝上的调味粉全部刮下来再一起吃掉,但结果怎样就不好说了, finger-licking 就是指「令人吮指回味的」,我们来看看例句吧!
The fried chicken they sell here is finger-licking good. You must give it a try before you go.
这里的街头小吃是能令人吮指回味的,你离开前一定要去尝试看看。
luscious 甜美多汁的
luscious 是指「甜美多汁的」,想到 luscious 就让我想到夜市里的炸鸡排,不管热量多高还是会吸引我去买一块,这个字除了形容香甜的食物,也可以形容香甜的人,像是年轻貌美的女孩子之类的…
Have you tried the lobster from Red Lobster? I heard that they are so luscious that you are guaranteed to come back for more.
你有吃过 Red Lobster 的龙虾吗?我听说那里的食物甜美多汁到保证你会再次光顾。
divine 惊为天人的好吃
真的是神~好吃! devine 原意指「神的;像神一样的」,可以用来形容事物「极好的,美妙的,美好的」,用来形容食物的时候当然就是指「惊为天人的好吃」啦!
The donut shop near our school sells incredibly expensive donuts. However, the students would still spend all their money on them because they are divine!
学校旁边的甜甜圈店卖很贵的甜甜圈,但学生们还是把他们全部的零用钱都花在那里,因为他们的甜甜圈真的太好吃了!
tasty 好吃的
Tasty 也是常见形容食物「好吃」的用词之一,家喻户晓的西堤牛排英文就是以 Tasty 命名 ,下次路过的时候可以注意一下他们红红的招牌 (这不是业配)。
Some people think that durian is tasty. They are fond of its unique smell and texture. Well, not for me.
有些人觉得榴梿很好吃,他们很喜欢它们独特的气味和口感。然而,我不属于喜欢吃榴莲的那群人。
