在過(guò)去的兩年中,因?yàn)榻?jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)的影響,很多人都不幸失去了工作。不過(guò)失業(yè)以后,并不是所有人都愁眉苦臉或立馬轉(zhuǎn)身找一個(gè)臨時(shí)的工作過(guò)度。有這么一些人,他們很享受失業(yè)后的生活,別人上班的時(shí)候,他們可以隨意做自己想做的事情。他們說(shuō),他們這不是unemployed,而是funemployed。
Funemployed refers to people who are unemployed and using the free time to have fun and explore new areas in their lives while they wait for their next job opportunity.
失業(yè)快樂(lè)族(funemployed)指在等待下個(gè)工作機(jī)會(huì)來(lái)臨期間利用空余時(shí)間享受生活,并挖掘生活中的新鮮領(lǐng)域的失業(yè)一族。
The term "funemployment" is defined as "the condition of a person who takes advantage of being out of a job to have the time of their life".
Funemployment則是指人們利用失業(yè)時(shí)的自由時(shí)間充分享受生活的這種狀態(tài)。
For example:
I just love being funemployed now. I can have all day and night to enjoy my life and have fun.
我現(xiàn)在很喜歡做個(gè)“失業(yè)快樂(lè)族”。我有整天整晚的時(shí)間去享受生活、找樂(lè)子。
