Brideshead
形容词 adj.
英文释义
形容词 adj.
-
Suggestive of the traditional English upper classes.
— In many ways it is easier to penetrate the English elite if one hails from rural Wyoming than from cockney Cheapside. Many of the most "Brideshead" characters I met in Cambridge, for example, actually came from abroad. There was the German lawyer in my course who wore a different-colored paisley ascot every day of the week.
词源
In reference to Brideshead Revisited, a 1945 novel by Evelyn Waugh.
