美 /ˌɑŋ ˈmoʊ/
英文释义
名词 n.
-
A white person, especially one perceived as a foreigner rather than a local inhabitant.
— Apart from skin colour, I have nothing in common with these Caucasians. To be honest, I have very little in common with the expatriates who live in Singapore either. For a start, most of the ang mohs that live here, particularly the ones from Britain, tend to come from the upper-middle classes.
词源
Borrowed from Hokkien 紅毛/红毛 (âng-mô͘, “person of Western descent”, literally “red hair”).
