狗狗 人脸
Dog's face|human face
A 1-year-old puppy is freaking out a lot of people on the internet because of his oddly human face. Yogi is a Shih-poo ― a cross between a Shih Tzu and a poodle ― whose eyes and jaw make him appear very human-like, despite being very dog-like in every other way.
在网络上一只一岁的狗狗因为他奇怪的人脸惊坏了很多网友。Yogi是一只西施犬——西施和贵宾的混种——他的眼睛和下巴使他看起来很像人类,尽管他在其它方面都很像狗。
Research suggests that human brains are wired to think of certain types of animal faces as “cute” or “human-like.” The phenomenon, dubbed “baby schema,” means humans tend to associate things like big eyes and round cheeks with baby humans.
研究表明,人类的大脑天生就认为某些动物的面孔是“可爱的”或“人一样的。” 这种现象被称为“婴儿图式”,这意味着人类倾向于把大眼睛和圆脸与婴儿联系起来。

小哥哥 小姐姐
表达|方式
对于高颜值小男生小女生的喜爱之情是一种普世性的情感,在西方文化中也不例外,所以“小哥哥”、“小姐姐”在英语中应该如何表达呢?
cute boy / pretty girl这恐怕是大家最熟悉的表达了。cute是handsome的轻便版,而pretty是beautiful的轻便版。不过有一个地方要注意,cute一般不给女生用;pretty一般不给男生用,特别小的孩子除外。还有就是hottie啦,这个词源于hot。Hot除了表示“热的”,还可以形容一个人很帅、很美。Hottie是一个名词,表示很帅很美的人。
lady killer一般指帅气的男生,跟中文里“少女杀手”有异曲同工之妙。此外,在英国地区,lad/ lass这两个词会更符合“小哥哥”、“小姐姐”的效果。
