卖弄的

I hate to see posers showing off.

我最恨看装腔作势的人卖弄。

As a bel esprit he despised pedantry whether in a man or in a bluestocking.

作为一个才子, 他看不起卖弄学问的作风, 不管这种作风是由男人还是女才子所表现出来的。

If she showed any tendency to coquetry he would be apt to straighten her tie, or if she “took up” with him at all, to call her by her first name.

如那女子露出点卖弄风情的品性，他就会前去帮她理理领带,如她‘吃’他那一套献殷勤的手段，他马开始用小名称呼她了。
