Context & Register
语域:neutral 常见场景:describing a person's appearance or style、describing someone's character or behavior、public performances or statements、reviews and feature articles 这个词通常用来形容人或事物大胆张扬、引人注目,常见于人物描写、时尚评论和新闻报道。语气可以是中性,也可以略带贬义(表示过于炫耀),在书面语中比在口语中更常见。
Grammar Note
常作定语或表语,形容人、风格或装饰等华丽张扬(有时含贬义)
Pronunciation & Spelling
真正押韵:buoyant /ˈbɔɪənt/。flamboyant 中的 -oy- 读 /ɔɪ/(和 boy 相同),但后面还有 /ənt/,所以 boy 不是完整押韵。注意 flam- 开头的拼写陷阱:flame /fleɪm/ 读长元音,而 flamboyant /flæm-/ 与 flammable /ˈflæməbəl/ 读 /flæm/。
