為什麼是Peeping tom不是john. jim....
peeping Tom 兩個字合起來是一個俚語, 指的是喜歡偷窺別人的人 (我想中文應該翻成偷窺狂吧!), 這些人以偷看...有一個叫 Tom 的男子忍不住, 就從門上的小洞偷看, 後來眼睛就瞎掉了. 因此, 以後偷窺者就被稱為 peeping Tom, 而門上的偷窺小孔就叫做 peephole. 以上取自; 小笨霖英語筆記本七十: 男人真討厭
請問 Peek 和 Peep 有何不同?
peep 跟 peek基本上是一樣的 都是代表偷看或是偷窺的意思 不過peep還另外可以當作是露出來 或是小鳥的叫聲 等其他涵義
請問peeping Tom也可用於女性嗎?
可以 希區考克電影"後窗",有一幕就是男主角斥責女主角用望遠鏡偷看得比他還入迷.
