Good quality, stylish, and usually expensive. You use it about things and places — a high-class hotel, a high-class restaurant, a high-class shop — to say this is the good kind, the kind that costs more.

Good quality品質好、stylish有格調，and usually expensive而且通常很貴。You use it你拿它來說 about things and places東西和場所——a high-class hotel高級飯店、a high-class restaurant高檔餐廳、a high-class shop高級商店——to say意思是 this is the good kind這是好的那一種，the kind that costs more要多花點錢的那一種。

It is everyday spoken English, not a formal word; a hotel's own advertisement is more likely to say 'luxury' or 'five-star', while a person telling a friend about it says 'high-class'. Because of that, it can sound a little old-fashioned or a little like advertising, and English speakers often use it lightly, even jokingly, about something that is only slightly nicer than usual: 'Ooh, paper napkins — very high-class.' Said that way, with the voice going up, it means the opposite.

It is everyday spoken English這是日常口語，not a formal word不是正式用字；a hotel's own advertisement飯店自己的廣告 is more likely to say比較可能說 'luxury' 或 'five-star'，while a person telling a friend about it而跟朋友聊起它的人 says 'high-class'才會說 'high-class'。Because of that因為這樣，it can sound它聽起來可能 a little old-fashioned有點老派 or a little like advertising或有點像廣告詞，and English speakers often use it所以母語者常把它 lightly, even jokingly用得很輕、甚至帶點玩笑，about something that is only slightly nicer than usual用在只比平常好一點點的東西上：'Ooh, paper napkins — very high-class.'喔，紙餐巾耶——真高級。Said that way那樣說的時候，with the voice going up尾音上揚，it means the opposite意思就相反了。

Used about a person, it points to the class they belong to or seem to belong to, and there it can sound snobbish, so people are more careful with it. There is also a common use in job ads and reviews meaning simply 'very skilled' — 'a high-class performance', 'a high-class defender' — which is about ability, not price.

Used about a person用在人身上時，it points to它指的是 the class they belong to or seem to belong to這個人所屬、或看起來所屬的階級，and there it can sound snobbish在那裡它可能聽起來勢利，so people are more careful with it所以大家用得比較小心。in job ads and reviews在徵才廣告和評論裡 There is also還有 a common use一種常見用法，meaning simply就只是指 'very skilled'「非常高竿」——'a high-class performance'一場高水準的演出、'a high-class defender'一名高水準的後衛——which is about ability那講的是能力，not price不是價錢。
