exercise widow 运动寡妇

分类: 实用英语 

Exercise widow refers to a woman who spends little time with her husband because of his frequent and extended exercise sessions.

“运动寡妇”是指因为老公频繁和长期进行锻炼而与之“聚少离多”的女性。

The exercise widow often wakes to an empty bed -- a sure sign of a morning workout -- and may find dinner plans spoiled by a sudden avoidance of anything heavy before a night run.

“运动寡妇”通常醒来就面对一张空空如也的床(这必定是丈夫晨练的标志),晚餐计划还可能因为老公夜跑前不想大吃大喝而突然取消。

The male equivalent is, of course, the exercise widower.

当然啦,若是有相同境遇的男子,则称为“运动鳏夫”。
