喜樂美語
  1. 1

    Something conspicuous is very easy to notice - it stands out, often because it's big, bright, unusual, or in the wrong place. It can describe objects, people, or even actions. It is often used in the phrase 'conspicuously absent', which means someone or something is missing in a way that people definitely notice.

    顯眼的；引人注目的
