朋友們聊天的時(shí)候說(shuō)了句特別二的話，連自己都覺(jué)得不好意思，立刻用雙手把臉捂起來(lái)。看到熊孩子把家里鬧得天翻地覆，無(wú)奈的爸媽只有捂臉的份兒。話說(shuō)，捂臉這個(gè)動(dòng)作真的很好用！

　　A facepalm is the physical gesture of placing one's hand flatacross one's face or lowering one's face into one's hand or hands.The facepalm is a gesture which is common in many cultures, andeven sometimes seen in chimpanzees!

　　Facepalm指的是用手捂住臉或?qū)⒛樎襁M(jìn)手掌的肢體動(dòng)作，即“捂臉”。捂臉這種動(dòng)作在很多文化中都很常見(jiàn)，連大猩猩也會(huì)呢！

　　Although a facepalm is usually used to express frustration orembarrassment, in the context of a surrounding conversation it canalso be used to express other emotions, such as disgust or dismay.A facepalm is often a reaction to a momentary lapse in commonsense, judgement, or logical behaviour. It can be directed towardsanother person – i.e.: a non-verbal way of saying "I can't believeyou just said/did that …" – or used in a self-deprecating way tomake it clear to others that you're aware that you've said or donesomething stupid。

　　這個(gè)動(dòng)作多用來(lái)表達(dá)沮喪或者尷尬，不過(guò)，在對(duì)話語(yǔ)境中，也可以用來(lái)表達(dá)厭惡或失望的情緒。在常識(shí)、判斷或者邏輯短暫缺失的情況下，我們通常會(huì)做出捂臉的動(dòng)作。同時(shí)，這個(gè)動(dòng)作也可以指向他人，即，用無(wú)聲的方式表達(dá)“我真不敢相信你說(shuō)了那樣的話/做了那樣的事，”或者用來(lái)自嘲，讓別人明白，你知道自己做了傻事或者說(shuō)了傻話。

　　Facepalm first appeared about five years ago, and has steadilygained ground as a popular term in Internet culture。

　　捂臉一詞大約出現(xiàn)在五年前，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)成為網(wǎng)絡(luò)文化流行詞。
