A laid-back party is often much more fun than a formal, dressy event, since people can wear whatever they’re comfortable in and enjoy chatting with each other. Laid-back was coined in the 1970s, possibly from the slouchy posture of motorcycle riders.
悠闲的反面是紧张。虽然一个悠闲的保姆几乎可以让他的孩子随心所欲,但一个紧张的保姆可能会为做家务、吃饭和严格的就寝时间制定一个时间表。悠闲的聚会通常比正式的、盛装的活动有趣得多,因为人们可以穿任何他们觉得舒服的衣服,并享受彼此聊天的乐趣。悠闲是在 1970 年代创造的,可能来自摩托车骑手的懒散姿势。
