吹噓，自吹自擂 bragging

有些人就是喜歡自吹自擂…哈哈，今天我們就看一下怎么用英語表達。

先看看一位老外對”自吹自擂”這個概念的看法。

I don't really like bragging. I prefer to be modest in how I act if I do really well. I mean when I got 100% in my final exam in Accounting 100 I did not go around telling everybody how good I was...The people I did tell my mark to, I said to them that I just can't believe the mark I got. To think... I got a perfect mark for a university exam....I still am amazed at that. Whereas if I was bragging it would have been me saying to everyone "oh look how good I am... I got 100% in that exam"

對了，大家應該已經看到，用brag這個單詞就可以表示”吹噓,自吹自擂”.

Brag: to talk too proudly about what you have done, what you own etc - used to show disapproval

通常搭配是: brag about sth

He often brags about how well he plays golf.

他常常自夸他高爾夫球打得如何如何好。

同義詞還有boast

Boast: to talk too proudly about your abilities, achievements, or possessions

I don't want to boast, but I can actually speak six languages.
我并不想吹噓，但我確實能講6種語言。

She is always boasting about how wonderful her children are.
她總是夸耀她的孩子們多么出色。
