# “超冷的”冷知识

当你要表达“超冷的”你该怎么说呢

cold？very cold？very very cold？

Stop it！小编为你准备了更多表达“冷”的方法

1. crisp 凉爽

crisp指的是干燥寒冷让人舒适的

可以表达“有一点冷”

2. nippy 凉快

动词nip的意思是“掐或捏”

nippy就比喻寒风刺骨般的感觉

3. chilly 寒冷

chilly指“天气或空间寒冷”

也可以用来指人感觉到冷

chilly多用来表达“令人不快的冷”

4. frosty 严寒

frosty用来形容的是“冷到结霜的天气”

frost本身就是“霜、极冷天气”的意思

5. freezing 极度寒冷

freezing指的是“严寒的”

常常指温度低于零度的天气

可以说 freezing的冷是“大魔王”级别的哟！
