You meet the word in news, in warnings to young people, and in older writing about street life. It has a heavy, slightly dated sound, like a headline from decades ago, though the habit itself has not gone away. Everyday talk may just say glue; the word names the whole habit.
You你 in news在新聞裡 in warnings to young people在給年輕人的警告裡 and in older writing about street life還有在描寫街頭生活的舊文章裡 meet會遇到 the word這個詞。It它 has有 a heavy, slightly dated sound一種沉重、有點過時的味道,like a headline from decades ago像幾十年前的頭條標題,though雖然 the habit itself這個習慣本身 has not gone away並沒有消失。Everyday talk日常說話 may just say可能只會說 sniffing glue不加連字號的講法;the hyphenated word這個有連字號的寫法 names指的是 the whole habit整個習慣。
It is dangerous. The gases can harm the brain, the heart, and the lungs, and people have died from it. Though actually, the “pleasure” is brief and ugly — dizziness, a thick head, then often sickness — not a soft, happy feeling.
It它 is dangerous是危險的。The gases這些氣體 can harm會傷害 the brain, the heart, and the lungs腦、心臟和肺,and而且 people有人 have died from it因此而死。Though actually不過事實上,the "pleasure"這種「快感」 is是 brief and ugly短暫又難受的——dizziness, a thick head, then often sickness頭暈、腦袋沉重,接著常常還會想吐——not a soft, happy feeling而不是柔和愉快的感覺。
