1. 1

    Froideur is a cool, way of behaving — not a shout, not a fight, but a chill in how someone speaks or looks at you. English borrowed the word from French, where it literally means , and English still treats it as a rather fancy, written word. You meet it in novels, reviews, and newspaper sketches of public people, not in the school corridor. A teacher would just say cold or ; froideur adds a slightly proud, distant flavour, as if the person is holding you away on purpose. It names the manner, not a cold in the head, and it is not a word most speakers reach for in speech.

    冷淡、冷傲(書面、帶法文味道;口語多半只說冷淡)
