Q&A Round 3

Are there any other adjectives we can use when we want to say 'furry'?

Dom強調不要自行發揮，隨便用'hair'形容貓貓狗狗的毛，一般統一用'fur'。

Moult: vi.&vt. The fur drops off. 掉毛

Non-shedding adj. 不愛掉毛的 [It doesn't moult much. ]

Dom覺得可能有這種特征的狗狗本身就沒有很多毛，哈哈哈~ 這是英國人的冷幽默嘛？~

所以，敲黑板，shed and moult are very very similar in meaning.

但是，shed更多功能些，你還可以說shed skin(脫皮), shed tears(掉眼淚)，shed hair(掉頭)，shed feathers(鳥類或哺乳類動物毛、羽毛脫落)

總結一下，對于動物的掉毛，不管是哺乳還是鳥類，基本都可以通過moult搞定。

Q&A Round 4

Describe the differences dogs and cats can have.

Dom解讀1：the difference in temperaments性情，習性 [how they behave, what they do etc.]

Temperament也指人的性情，秉性

Aloof: a little bit distant, not super friendly, a bit uninterested and like to keep to themselves a little bit.

要我說就是孤傲清高，孤芳自賞啊，真的好難拿捏。
Distant: 喜歡跟他人(或其他生物)保持一定距離的

Uninterested: 淡漠的

Keep to oneself: 喜歡或享受一個(zhi)人(mao)呆著

Dom寧愿說generally cats are [all] quite aloof，aloof是貓的通性呢，有道理~

當然可以說：
Gordon's very aloof. Gordon這人兒挺孤傲的。

Whereas dogs are generally the opposite. 狗狗卻正好相反。
注意whereas是個對比的時候很好用的詞匯，即“然而”。

The dogs' whole world revolves around their owner. 狗狗的世界就是圍繞著主人轉的。

Revolve around 圍繞…旋轉

Clingy: 粘人的 (比較貶義，愛狗人士慎用，狗狗會桑心哦~而且多用在指人)[somebody who's clingy always wants your attention, like a clingy boyfriend]

Dogs seem to have unconditional love to their owners.

If i compare dogs to certain people, I think they are the very naive or innocent ones.

Naive 天真的有點白癡的

Innocent天真無邪的
