Hombre means a man. English borrowed it straight from Spanish, where it is the ordinary word for “man” or “human being.” In English it is informal, and it often hints that the man is tough, strong, or a bit of a cowboy. You hear it in American speech, especially in the southwest and in Western films: a tough hombre, a bad hombre.

Hombre means a manHombre的意思是「男人」。English borrowed it straight from SpanishEnglish直接從西班牙文借來這個字, where it is the ordinary word for "man" or "human being."在西班牙文裡，它就是「男人」或「人」的普通說法。In English it is informal在英文裡它是口語用法, and it often hints that the man is tough, strong, or a bit of a cowboy而且常暗示這個男人很強悍、很man，帶點牛仔味。You hear it in American speech, especially in the southwest and in Western films你會在美式口語中聽到它，尤其是美國西南部和西部片裡: a tough hombre, a bad hombre像a tough hombre（硬漢）、a bad hombre（壞傢伙）。

Though actually, in Spanish there is no cowboy flavour at all — it is as plain as man. In English that cowboy flavour is usually the point. Friends may say “Hey, hombre” as a jokey way to address a man.

It can sound playful or old-fashioned; in some mouths it can sound unkind. It is not a word for formal writing.
