短释义:
Some people love to pamper their pets, cooking them special food and buying them expensive collars and toys. To pamper goes beyond kind treatment, bordering on overindulgence or coddling. People also like to pamper themselves from time to time, getting a massage or a manicure, or otherwise being treated indulgently. The word pamper originally meant “to cram with food,” most likely from a Middle Dutch root meaning “to cram.”
当你宠爱你的狗时,你就是在宠坏他。你可以给他喂几块奶酪,给他织一件小毛衣,让他睡在你的床上,盖上被子,以此来宠爱他。

有些人喜欢宠爱他们的宠物,给它们煮特殊的食物,给它们买昂贵的项圈和玩具。纵容超出了友善对待的范围,近乎过度放纵或溺爱。人们也喜欢时不时地宠爱自己,接受按摩或修指甲,或者以其他方式享受纵容。 “pamper”这个词最初的意思是“塞满食物”,很可能来自中古荷兰语词根,意思是“塞满”。

It survives a kind of life where pamper is a noun, not a verb.
它存在于一种“宠爱”是名词而不是动词的生活中。
