JESSICA在北京學漢語，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎麼說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是楊林要問的：花美男。
YL: JESSICA，你發現沒有，現在有一種男人，面板比女人還好，比女人還愛打扮，穿得特時髦，英語免費站，都跟從偶像劇裡走出來似的'。我們叫他們“花美男”，flower-pretty-man! 呵呵，免費英語站，我瞎翻的，美語中不會也有類似的稱呼吧？
JESSICA: Actually, there IS an English equivalence. It's "metrosexual" m-e-t-r-o-s-e-x-u-a-l, metrosexual.
YL: metro-- "大城市"，免費學習英語的網站，加上 sexual-- "性別的"。那 metrosexual 跟中文裡說的“花美男”指的是一種人嗎？
Jessica: Well, Metrosexual men live in big cities, know all the trendy places in town and pay great attention to their appearances.
YL: 沒錯! 花美男就是住在大城市裡的時尚達人，特別注重外表和打扮！要這麼說，花美男就是 metrosexual man!
JESSICA: I guess being a metrosexual man means you're doing your homework on the latest trends. You need to be up-to-date on the hottest fashion!
YL: up-to-date on the hottest fashion? fashion是時尚的意思，up-to-date是跟上潮流，所以，up-to-date on the hottest fashion 就是“緊跟最新時尚”吧？
JESSICA: That's right! But Yanglin, I would say the real fashionable people are not those who follow the trends, but the trend setters!
YL: trend setters? t-r-e-n-d, trend 是趨勢的意思，setter, s-e-t-t-e-r 是設定者，所以 trend setter 就是開創時尚的真正潮人!
JESSICA: 沒錯! Now let's see what you've learned today!
YL: 第一，注重打扮的“花美男”是 metrosexual men；
第二，緊跟流行時尚是 be up-to-date on the hottest fashion；
第三，領導時尚的潮人叫 trend setter!
