- 1a/ˈfrɔɪdiən/of Freud's ideas佛洛伊德式的
Connected with the ideas of Sigmund Freud, an Austrian doctor who taught that much of what people feel and do comes from wishes and memories they are not aware of, and connected with the way of treating the mind that he built on those ideas.
Freudian 指跟佛洛伊德有關的東西。他是奧地利醫生,也是精神分析的創始者。他主張人心裡有一塊自己看不見的部分。那一塊會影響我們的感覺和行為。所以 Freudian theory 是他的理論,Freudian analysis 是他那一套治療方法。這個字通常放在名詞前面,用來標明「屬於他那一派的」。它只說明來源,不表示同不同意。因為來自人名,開頭要大寫。

It usually stands in front of a noun: Freudian theory, a Freudian reading of a story, Freudian analysis. The word keeps its capital letter, because it is built on a person's name.

- 2a/ˈfrɔɪdiən/revealing a hidden wish洩漏潛意識的
Used about something a person says or does by accident that seems to show a hidden thought or wish they do not usually talk about, especially one about sex.
這個 Freudian 用來說「不小心露餡」。有人說錯一個字,或做了某個動作。旁邊的人覺得那不是單純的口誤。他們覺得那句話洩漏了心裡藏著的念頭。常常帶著跟性有關的暗示。最常見的說法是 a Freudian slip。語氣多半是半開玩笑,不是認真的診斷。用之前要看場合,因為它會把話題帶往私密的方向。
This sense is about a small accident with a big reading put on it. Someone uses the wrong word, or does something odd, and a listener treats the mistake as a window into what that person was really thinking. The most common shape by far is 'a Freudian slip'. It is usually said half as a joke, and it does point the conversation towards private matters, so it lands differently at work than among close friends.
