brazen-faced
形容人脸皮很厚，明知不合适或令人反感，却仍然毫不羞愧、厚颜无耻地行事。
💡 记忆钩子
想象一张像黄铜一样硬的脸：别人的责备和羞耻感都敲不进去，所以这个人敢于冒犯、强求或做失礼的事而面不改色；由“硬脸”自然引申为“厚颜无耻、毫无羞色”。
📖 中文释义
adj
-
core 厚颜无耻的📖 指一个人明明做了失礼、冒犯或不该做的事，却一点也不觉得羞愧，反而若无其事地继续下去。记住“脸硬得像黄铜”这个形象，就能把它和单纯的勇敢或自信区分开。💡 常见结构是“a brazen-faced + 名词”，例如描述某人或某种行为；也可以说“be brazen-faced”。它通常直接修饰人，语气强烈而贬义，不适合用来表示值得称赞的果断或勇气。不要把它只理解成“脸皮厚”这一外貌说法，它重点评价的是人的行为和态度。That brazen-faced man cut in front of everyone and acted as if nothing had happened.那个厚颜无耻的人插到了所有人前面，还装作什么事都没发生。She was brazen-faced enough to ask for another favor after refusing to help us.她拒绝帮助我们之后，竟然还厚着脸皮再来求我们帮忙。
