“聖誕季”英語怎麼說

　摘要:今年的聖誕季將會是近年來最醜的一次，但這正中許多服裝零售商的下懷。你知道怎麼用英語表達聖誕季嗎?

This is one of the ugliest Christmas seasons in recent memories — and that's the way some clothing retailers want it.

Sales of Christmas sweaters purposely designed to be ugly are looking pretty good at this point, according to the companies that make them.

"If you are trying to go truly ugly, it's all about the embellishments — the more garland, bells, balls, lights, and sequins you can attach to your sweater, the better," Tipsy Elves CEO Evan Mendelsohn said.

Fashion experts believed that even though ugly — and colorful — sweaters are in fashion, context is everything.

今年的聖誕季將會是近年來最醜的一次，但這正中許多服裝零售商的下懷。

聖誕毛衣廠商表示，故意做醜的聖誕毛衣今年銷量看好。

Tipsy Elves首席執行官埃文•門德爾鬆表示，“如果想將衣服做到奇醜無比，裝飾物是關鍵。毛衣上的花環、鈴鐺、小球、燈以及小金屬片越多越好。”

時尚達人們則認爲，雖然這些難看、鮮豔的毛衣很流行，但節日氛圍纔是重點。

　　【講解】

文中的Christmas season就是“聖誕季”的意思，其中season作名詞，可指以氣候爲標誌的“時節”，如：rainy season(雨季)，也可以指活動爲標誌的季節或體育比賽的“賽季”，如：tourist season(旅遊季節)，the basketball season(籃球賽季)

第一段中的retailer是名詞，意爲“零售商(店)”，相關詞彙：retail(零售)，wholesaler(批發商)，wholesale(批發)，如：Over the past decade, has continued to dominate the online retail market in the United States.(在過去十年當中，亞馬遜依然統治着美國在線零售市場。)
