35. “土豪”和“土豪金”

“Local tyrant”originally meant a rich and powerful person or family in a town or an area. However, the old term has assumed new meanings, and has become a popular term. The use of term“local tyrant”was first extended to the virtual world to describe the people who were willing to spend a huge sum of money on computer games. Later, it was extended to describe people who like to brag about their wealth.“Local tyrant gold”has become a popular phrase to describe the gold iPhone 5S. Gold symbolizes nobility, wealth and prosperity. The“local tyrant gold”used to be sold out in many retail channels.

“土豪（local tyrant）”原意是指在某城鎮(zhèn)或某地區(qū)中有錢(qián)有勢(shì)的人或家族。然而，如今舊詞添新義，“土豪”變成了一個(gè)流行語(yǔ)。“土豪”這個(gè)詞首次被延用到虛擬世界時(shí)，是用來(lái)形容那些愿意在電腦游戲上花大錢(qián)的人。后來(lái)，它被擴(kuò)展到用來(lái)描述喜歡炫富的人。“土豪金”已經(jīng)成為用來(lái)指代金色的iPhone 5S的流行語(yǔ)。黃金象征著高貴、財(cái)富和興旺。“土豪金”曾在許多零售渠道脫銷(xiāo)。
