外刊例句：

他不是她唯一的目标；她是如此卑鄙和满嘴脏话，她的气质似乎改变了她的面貌。
—Washington Post
It’s a slow approach, like tailing a life form that has no defined physiognomy.
这是一种缓慢的方法，就像追踪一种没有明确面貌的生命形式一样。
—The Guardian

短释义：
The reason physiognomy sounds like it should be something you study in school right after biology, geometry, and astronomy is that people used to think that it was a science by which you could tell someone’s character through their facial features. If you’ve ever read any Nancy Drew stories, you will know how this plays out — anyone with “shifty eyes” is not to be trusted.
面相这个词的意思是某人的脸的外观。在意大利旅行时，您可能会被文艺复兴时期雕刻的大理石雕像令人赏心悦目的面貌所震撼。
长释义：

面相学听起来应该是继生物学、几何学和天文学之后在学校学习的一门学科，因为人们过去认为相面学是一门可以通过面部特征来判断某人性格的科学。如果你读过南茜·朱尔的故事，你就会知道结果如何——任何“目光狡猾”的人都不值得信任。
文学例句：
Passing from the architecture of the theatre to the physiognomy of the actors, let us study the manner in which they were recruited.
从剧院的建筑到演员的相貌，让我们研究一下他们的招募方式。

A Monthly Eclectic Magazine by Rameur, E.
His eye was gray and rather dull, his physiognomy melancholy, his cheek sunken, his complexion freckled, his coat blue, the buttons dingy, his hair sandy, and like untwisted rope.
他的眼睛是灰色的，有些呆滞，相貌忧郁，脸颊凹陷，肤色雀斑，外套青色，纽扣肮脏，头发沙色，像未捻的绳子。
—Quodlibet by Kennedy, John Pendleton
Now, among the Ti-pings, these things, with the exception of the physiognomy, have all disappeared, and even their features seem improved—probably through their mental and bodily relief from thraldom.
现在，在提平人中，除了相貌之外，这些东西都消失了，甚至他们的容貌似乎也有所改善——可能是因为他们的精神和身体从束缚中解脱出来。
