1. 1

    If you are conflicted, two strong feelings are pulling you, and you cannot happily choose. It is not that you cannot pick a sandwich. It is that both sides matter: your head may say one thing and your heart another, or two things you believe do not fit this one choice.

    If you are conflicted如果你conflicted,two strong feelings are pulling you表示有兩種強烈的感受在拉扯你,and you cannot happily choose而你沒辦法愉快地做出選擇。 It is not that you cannot pick a sandwich不是說你連要選哪個三明治都決定不了。 It is that both sides matter而是兩邊都很重要:your head may say one thing and your heart another可能理智說一套,感情又說另一套,or two things you believe do not fit this one choice或是你相信的兩件事在這個選擇上兜不起來。

    'I want to be loyal to my friend, but I also want to tell the truth' — that is conflicted. Adults use it about jobs, family, and right-and-wrong. It sounds a little more careful than 'I don't know.' Though actually, people also use it for smaller mix-ups ('I'm conflicted about the film'), which is a bit loose, but you will hear it.

    'I want to be loyal to my friend, but I also want to tell the truth'「我想對朋友忠誠,但我也想說實話」——that is conflicted這就是conflicted。 Adults use it about jobs, family, and right-and-wrong大人會用它來說工作、家庭和是非對錯上的掙扎。 It sounds a little more careful than 'I don't know.'聽起來比「我不知道」更謹慎一點。Though actually不過其實,people also use it for smaller mix-ups大家也會拿它來說比較小的猶豫,'I'm conflicted about the film'像我對這部電影感覺很矛盾這種說法,which is a bit loose這樣用是有點鬆散,but you will hear it但你會聽到這種說法。

    It describes a person, or that person's feelings — not two facts fighting on a page.

    It describes a person, or that person's feelings它形容的是一個人,或那個人的感受——not two facts fighting on a page不是紙上兩個互相矛盾的事實。
