短释义：
A smirk is specific kind of smile, one that suggests self-satisfaction, smugness, or even pleasure at someone else’s unhappiness or misfortune.
傻笑是一种特殊的微笑，表示自我满足、沾沾自喜，甚至是对别人的不幸或不幸感到高兴。
长释义：
Smirk can function as either a noun or a verb: “Wipe that smirk off your face. Don’t smirk at me, buddy: you’re gonna get yours next!” A smirk implies you think you’re better than the person you’re smirking at. Ever heard of the term “service with a smile”? Yeah, well, there’s a reason it’s not “service with a smirk.”
Smirk 既可以用作名词也可以用作动词：“擦去你脸上的假笑。别对我假笑，伙计：下一个你会得到你的！”假笑意味着你认为你比你假笑的人更好。听说过“微笑服务”这个词吗？是的，好吧，这不是“微笑服务”的原因。
