去年，牛津词典（oxford dictionary）2022年度词汇为：goblin mode（哥布林模式/摆烂模式）。

近日，牛津词典公布2023年度词汇：rizz.

根据牛津大学出版社（oup）的说法，rizz为新兴网络俚语，可能源于charisma（魅力）一词，是charisma的缩写形式，取其中间部分。

rizz的定义是有风格、魅力或吸引力，或是吸引恋人或性伴侣的能力（style, charm or attractiveness, or one's ability to attract a romantic or sexual partner）。rizz也可以用作动词，rizz up意思是吸引、诱惑或搭讪某人。

中文里似乎有个说法叫“性张力”，你觉得翻译成什么比较好呢？

oxford names 'rizz' word of the year

from: the hill

oxford university press (oup), the publisher of the oxford english dictionary, named “rizz” the word of the year for 2023.

rizz is defined as style, charm or attractiveness, or one's ability to attract a romantic or sexual partner. it's often associated with younger generations and is widely used online.

“rizz was chosen by the language experts at oup as an interesting example of how language can be formed, shaped, and shared within communities, before being picked up more widely,” oup said in a release. “it speaks to how younger generations create spaces -— online or in person — where they own and define the language they use.”

oup said it's likely that more words derived from social media and internet culture will be used in everyday language over time. words and phrases are being shared via social media and catching on so quickly that they are surpassing previous linguistic trends and are becoming mainstream much quicker.

“the spike in usage data for rizz goes to prove that words and phrases that evolve from internet culture are increasingly becoming part of day-to-day vernacular and will continue to shape language trends in the future,” oxford languages president casper grathwohl said in a statement.

oup said the word is believed to be a shortened form of the word charisma, taken from the middle part of the word. similar examples include refrigerator becoming fridge and influenza, commonly called flu. rizz can also be used as a verb. to “rizz up” means to attract, seduce or chat up a person, oup said.

oup said the word reached its peak popularity in june of this year after actor tom holland was asked in a buzzfeed interview about his rizz, to which he said he had “no rizz whatsoever.” the dating app tinder also introduced a “rizz-first redesign” this year in an effort to bring in more younger users.

members of the public voted on social media to narrow down the shortlist of words chosen by the experts. this year's picks included rizz, beige flag, swiftie, de-influencing, prompt, heat dome, situationship and parasocial.

“it has been incredible to see the public once again enjoying being a part of the word of the year selection,” grathwohl's statement said. “witnessing thousands of people debate and discuss language like this really highlights the power it has in helping us to understand who we are, and process what's happening to the world around us.

each year, oup chooses a word or expression that has reflected the last 12 months and has potential to have lasting cultural significance or provides a snapshot into history. the 2021 word of the year, for example, was vax, after covid-19 vaccines were released.

the announcement comes just after merriam-webster also named rizz one of the top words of 2023.

how did “rizz” gain popularity according to the article? 单选

a) through its usage in popular music.

“rizz一词之所以被牛津大学出版社语言专家选中，是因为这是一个有趣的实例，展示了语言如何在社区内形成、塑造和共享，然后被更广泛地使用，”牛津大学出版社在一份新闻稿中表示。“这反映了年轻一代是如何在网上或线下创造空间，从而拥有和定义他们所使用的语言的。”

"

members of the public voted on social media to narrow down the shortlist of words chosen by the experts. this year's picks included rizz, beige flag, swiftie, de-influencing, prompt, heat dome, situationship and parasocial.

公众在社交媒体上投票，以缩小专家们选出候选词汇的范围。今年的候选词汇包括rizz、beige flag（米色旗帜/咖啡色警示[一种性格特征，表明潜在对象平平无奇、无聊乏味]）、swiftie（霉粉）、de-influencing（拔草/反网红营销/反种草）、prompt（提示词）、heat dome（热穹顶[一种自然现象]）、situationship（状态恋情/情境关系[朋友以上、恋人未满，但已有亲密行为]）和parasocial（准社会关系[大众与名人之间的一种单方面关系]）。

narrow sth down

narrow sth down表示“把…缩减，压缩”，英文解释为“to make a number or list of things smaller, by removing the things that are least important, necessary, or suitable”举个：we narrowed the list of candidates down from ten to three. 我们把候选人从10位筛选至3位。

美式：short list是分开的。有shortlist就有longlist，意思就是“初选名单”（a long-list for something such as a job or a prize is a large group that has been chosen from all the people who applied for the job, or all the people or things that are competing for the prize. the successful ones from this group are chosen to go on the shortlist.）

同时，两个词都可以作为动词，比如shortlist作动词，表示“把…列入入围名单”举个：candidates who are shortlisted for interview will be contacted by the end of the week. 入围参加面试的求职者将在周末以前得到通知。

beige

beige /be??/ 表示“米色；米黄色；浅棕色”，英文解释为“a pale brown colour”

如果红色旗帜（red flag）是警告信号，绿色旗帜（green flag）是吸引人的标志，那么“beige flags”就像是人际关系中的黄色交通灯——某个人的特征可能不是决定性的负面因素，描述的是既不好也不坏的某种特点，但确实会引起注意。

“beige flag”在现代约会和人际关系语境中，用于描述一些可能让人觉得对方无趣或平庸的特征或行为。这些特征虽然不一定是关系中的决定性问题，但足以让人在交往时产生一些犹豫。

de-influencing

de-influencing是一个近期在社交媒体上出现的现象，特别是在带货营销的背景下，它尝试与传统的带货种草相反，劝阻观众购买他们不需要的产品，旨在反对不必要的消费，鼓励人们更加理性地看待消费和购买决策。

prompt

作名词，1）表示“（计算机屏幕上的）提示符（显示计算机已经准备好接受指令）”，英文解释为“a sign on a computer screen that shows that the computer is ready to receive your instructions”

在chatgpt火热的今天，prompt通常指的是给模型的输入，用来激发或引导模型生成特定的输出或回答。简而言之，prompt是指用户提供给语言模型的一段文字或命令，以便模型据此理解用户的需求并给出相应的响应或信息。

例如，在与像chatgpt这样的大语言模型交互时，用户提出的问题或指令就是一个“prompt”。模型会根据这个prompt的内容分析、处理并生成回答或执行相关的任务。prompt对于大语言模型来说是非常关键的，因为它直接决定了模型如何理解和回应用户的需求。

prompt中文里有译为“提示词”，prompt engineering 就是“提示工程/提示词工程”。

2）表示“（给演员的）提词，提白”，英文解释为“words that are spoken to an actor who has forgotten what he or she is going to say during the performance of a play”

3）作动词，表示“促使；导致；激起”，英文解释为“to make sb decide to do sth; to cause sth to happen”举个：his speech prompted an angry outburst from a man in the crowd. 他的讲话激起了人群中一男子的愤怒。

美剧《斯巴达克斯：血与沙》（spartacus: blood and sand）中的台词提到：one cannot but wonder what would prompt such an act 不知他们为何遭此不幸。

"

4）作动词，表示“（尤指）给（演员）提词”，英文解释为“to help someone, especially an actor, to remember what they were going to say or do”举个：i forgot my line and had to be prompted. 我忘词了，只好让人提词。

heat dome

“heat dome”是一个气象学术语，用来描述一种特定的高压天气模式，它导致异常热的天气条件。这种现象发生时，一片大范围的强烈高压系统在特定地区形成稳定的“盖子”，阻止空气上升，从而防止热量通过大气层散发掉。结果，这个区域内的热量和湿度被困住，导致温度显著上升并持续很长时间。在“热穹顶”（heat dome）下，地表温度会急剧升高，有时会达到危险的水平，可能导致热浪和极端的高温天气。这种现象对环境、农业、健康和整体生活质量都可能产生严重影响。随着全球气候变化的加剧，热穹顶现象可能变得更为频繁和严重。

dome /d??m/ 1）表示“穹顶；穹顶建筑”，英文解释为“a rounded roof on a building or a room, or a building with such a roof”

2）表示“半球形”，英文解释为“a shape like one-half of a ball”举个：gerald had a long grey beard and a shiny bald dome (= head). 杰拉尔德留着长长的灰色胡须，头秃得锃亮。

situationship

situationship是一个描述非正式且未明确界定的浪漫或性关系的术语（a romantic or sexual relationship that is not considered to be formal or established）。在这种关系中，参与者之间的关系超越了朋友关系，但又不到达承诺的恋人关系的程度。

类似于日语里的“友达以上，恋人未满”，形容两人比朋友更亲密，但又未达到恋人程度，介于友情与恋情之间的感情。

parasocial

“parasocial”常用于描述一种社交关系，这是一种单向的心理关系，其中一个人（如观众、粉丝或消费者）对另一个不了解他们存在的人（如名人、影视角色或媒体人物）产生情感投入和心理上的依附。

在这种社交关系中，一个人可能会感觉像是与媒体中的人物有着真实的、互动的关系，尽管实际上这种关系是单向的，且媒体人物并不知晓这种关系的存在。观众可能会对电视节目中的角色、名人或公众人物产生强烈的情感连结，感觉他们就像是自己生活中的一部分。这种现象在现代社会中十分普遍，特别是在社交媒体和网络文化中，粉丝们常常会对他们所喜爱的名人、网络红人或虚拟角色产生强烈的社交感觉。这种关系有时被认为对个人心理健康有益，因为它提供了一种归属感和满足感，但也可能导致不切实际的期望和情感依赖。

“it has been incredible to see the public once again enjoying being a part of the word of the year selection,” grathwohl's statement said. “witnessing thousands of people debate and discuss language like this really highlights the power it has in helping us to understand who we are, and process what's happening to the world around us.

“看到公众再次热情参与年度词汇评选真是令人兴奋，”格拉斯沃尔在声明中表示。“目睹成千上万的人对语言进行这样的辩论和探讨，真正凸显了语言在帮助我们了解自己和应对周围世界正在发生的事情上的力量。”

highlight

作动词，表示“使引起注意，强调”，英文解释为“to attract attention to or emphasize something important”举个：the report highlights the need for improved safety. 那份报告强调了加大安全力度的重要性。

作名词，表示“最精彩的部分”，英文解释为“the best or most exciting, entertaining, or interesting part of something”举个：highlights of the match will be shown after the news. 比赛的精彩部分将在新闻之后播出。

each year, oup chooses a word or expression that has reflected the last 12 months and has potential to have lasting cultural significance or provides a snapshot into history. the 2021 word of the year, for example, was vax, after covid-19 vaccines were released.

每年，牛津大学出版社都会选择一个反映过去12个月并可能具有持久文化意义或展现历史缩影的词汇或表达。例如，新冠疫苗推出后，2021年的年度词汇是vax（疫苗）。

snapshot

snapshot /?sn?p.??t/ 1）表示“照片，快照”，英文解释为“a photograph”

2）表示“简介；简要情况”，英文解释为“a piece of information or short deｓｃｒｉｐｔion that gives an understanding of a situation at a particular time”举个：credit rating agencies provide a snapshot of the risks an investment poses at any one time. 信用评分机构提供的是某一时刻投资风险的简要情况。

vax

vax /v?ks/ 可以作动词，也可以作名词，表示“（打）疫苗”。牛津词典公布2021年度词汇：vax. the oxford languages dictionary defines vax as a vaccine or vaccination when used as a noun. as a verb, vax is defined as “vaccinate” or “treat (someone) with a vaccine to produce immunity against a disease”.

the announcement comes just after merriam-webster also named rizz one of the top words of 2023.

此前，韦氏词典（merriam-webster）也将rizz列为2023年热门词汇之一。
