1. 1

    An alarmist is someone who tries to make other people very worried about dangers that, in the speaker’s view, are not real, or not as big as they sound. It is almost always a criticism, not a job title.

    An alarmist危言聳聽的人 is someone who tries to make other people very worried about dangers是想辦法讓別人對某些危險非常擔心的人 that, in the speaker's view, are not real, or not as big as they sound而說話的人自己認為這些危險並不真實,或沒有聽起來那麼嚴重。It is almost always a criticism這幾乎都是一種批評,not a job title不是一個職稱。

    If I call your warning alarmist, I am not thanking you; I am saying you are making a drama out of something thin.

    If I call your warning alarmist如果我說你的警告是alarmist,I am not thanking you我不是在謝謝你;I am saying you are making a drama out of something thin我是在說你把一件小事誇張成一場戲。

    You can use it as a noun (He is an alarmist) or as an adjective (alarmist headlines, an alarmist report). Newspapers and politicians throw this word at each other.

    You can use it as a noun你可以把它當名詞用(He is an alarmist他是個危言聳聽的人)or as an adjective也可以當形容詞用(alarmist headlines危言聳聽的標題、an alarmist report危言聳聽的報告)。Newspapers and politicians throw this word at each other報紙和政客常常拿這個字互相攻擊。

    Though actually, the word does not prove the danger is fake. It only tells you the speaker thinks the fear is too much. One person’s alarmist is another person’s early warning.

    Though actually不過事實上,the word does not prove the danger is fake這個字並不能證明危險是假的。It only tells you它只告訴你 the speaker thinks the fear is too much說話的人覺得這份擔心太過頭了。One person's alarmist一個人眼中的alarmist is another person's early warning是另一個人眼中的及早示警。
