"savage" in Chinese (Simplified)

野蛮的凶狠的残酷的

Definition

Savage 通常表示非常暴力、残忍或失去控制。它也可以形容某事非常严厉或强烈;在非正式用法中,还可表示说话很狠、很直接,或表现得特别强势。

Usage Notes (Chinese (Simplified))

在严肃语境中通常带负面意义,如 'a savage attack'、'savage violence'。在现代非正式英语里,尤其在网络上,'savage' 也可以带一点夸赞或幽默,表示回击很狠、很敢说:'That comeback was savage.' 但用作名词指人时,可能显得冒犯或过时。
