英文词源

blowhard (n.)

also blow-hard, 1840, a sailor's word (from 1790 as a nickname for a sailor), perhaps not originally primarily meaning "braggart;" from blow (v.1) + hard (adv.). An adjective sense of "boastful" appeared c. 1855, and may be a separate formation leading to a modified noun use.

双语例句

1. I don't want to sit next to that old blowhard.

我不想坐在那个爱自吹自擂的老人旁边.
