主页君扫了下这几篇文章，发现有这么几个词是被他们都频繁提起的……
1. 吹牛
In English, someone who is “full of hot air” is a rhetorician of the worst kind. They spew empty promises, or outright lies, and talk mostly so they can take pleasure in the sound of their own voice.
吹牛 means to brag or boast—to attempt to inflate one’s importance or exaggerate one’s accomplishments.But why is the hot air in this instance being funneled into a cow?
修、修辞手法而已嘛……不要那么轴啊。（咦，“轴”又怎么翻译呢？

2. 体贴
Mandarin draws a distinction between the kindness one is expected to demonstrate to strangers, and the consideration shown to loved ones .
体贴 could be literally translated as “to stick together (as a unit).” What the word really denotes is the respect and mutual attending to individual needs that allows families not just to function, but to thrive.
主页君个人喜欢把“体贴”翻译成“considerate”，但“体贴”明显比considerate的感觉要更亲密一点，暧昧一点，说不清道不明一点……

3. 加油
加油 is an unusual word. You might hear it being shouted by fans cheering their team on to a comeback, or you might find yourself using it while giving a pep talk to a spouse who’s had a bad day. 加油 is an imperative: “put some more oil in it!” Or, as we say in English, “put another log on that fire.”
加油 is a way of encouraging someone both keep their spirits up and to overcome exhaustion by finding and using some last reserve of energy within themselves.
“加油”这个词，在老外眼里就真属于玄学问题的范畴了。
就目前来说，至少在英文里，没有任何词语或句子能准确表达出“加油”的意思来。

4. 审美疲劳
All spoken languages are living languages, and words and phrases are constantly circulating through the vernacular. 审美疲劳 is a recent addition to Mandarin.
审美疲劳 was popularized by a successful comedy by one of China’s more famous film directors, Feng Xiaogang. In Cell Phone (2003),to gaze for too long at something—or someone—beautiful is to belabor it, with the result that one loses one’s appreciation for that phenomenon’s—or that person’s—beauty altogether.
扯这种热门网词就有点犯规了啊……如果真要翻网络用语，估计十个老外能傻掉九个半吧？

5. 莫名其妙
In separate characters, this almost sounds flattering, but taken together,this phrase is like the Chinese “WTF,” but more polite.Or more aptly, as my friend put it in Chinglish, “The way my friend is behaving is really mòmíngqímiào.” It’s a statement wrapped within a question.
