1. 1

    Glitz is the shiny, , slightly quality around rich, famous, fashionable life — bright lights, sparkle, red carpets, the 'look at me' surface. A big awards night has glitz; a quiet village does not. The word can sound a little , as if the shine is more style than substance. Informal English also uses it as a verb: to glitz something up is to make it flashier. The noun was cut back from the adjective , which comes from German glitzern, 'to glint.'

    浮華、華麗炫目(名流場合那種金光閃閃、有點表面的亮)
