“光棍”最简单的说法是“single”。虽然“光棍”一词非常形象且喜感满满,但其实说到底就是“单身”嘛。因此平时用“single”一词足以表示“光棍”了。比如说:
Dan was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business.
丹是个光棍,在家与父亲同住并在自家的事业工作。
此外,“bachelor”这个词也可以专门表示“光棍”,而“女光棍”则叫bachelorette
例句:He is a bachelor; once he is fed, no one is hungry in his family.
他是光棍儿一条,一人吃饱全家不饿。
